Guest Reviews
- Sujay (10/5): -
- Sourin (8/5): -
- Akhil (10/5): -
- Sharad (8/5): - Pets and noise
- Praneetha (10/5): - Everything. Food was great. The view is amazing. Nothing
- Mann (9/5): Pristine Stay away from City Life - The ambience and the way the entire set up is made us take this up for a stay. The hospitality of the staff is extremely amazing..they cared about every detail and were very prompt on their approach. Pooja's smile is extremely encapsulating. She was ever ready to help out. Ensured that she was prompt in letting us prempt anything. The surroundings while we're rustic, could have been manicured a bit more. There is nothing that we can dislike in such a serene property like this
- Rahul (9/5): Comfortable, rustic, unwinding - 1. Right next to the highway.
2. Great architecture, including woodwork, attic.
3. Air conditioned
4. Ideal for couples and small families.
5. Next to Svarna river.
6. Great food.
7. Excellent hospitality and customer care - Pooja did an excellent job of taking care of our family throughout the stay.
- Anejana (9/5): Superb - • Verdant and peaceful ambience
• Clean and neatly maintained property
• Delectable in-house menu with lots of fruits and fresh vegetables everyday. The menu is limited and vegetarian but definitely one of the tastiest I have had in a long time. • Better wardrobes
• Better water pressure in the washroom
• Thicker linen for elderly (to cover themselves)
- Nivedita (9/5): This place is a great choice with lovely staff, yummy food and super clean and aesthetic interiors. - The decor and interiors are really aesthetic. The living room and TV are a good place to chill. The room was super clean and cozy. The beds are lovely. Every decor detail is paid attention to. The staff is really lovely and catered to all our needs. Food was really authentic and delicious. It was a wide spread for dinner which gave us options and we appreciated that. There isn’t a lot of space to walk around the property. I found a bit of lack of activities. A spa would have been nice. If you are scared of dogs, make sure they are not left open when you enter the property at night coz otherwise they will bark at you loudly.
- Philippe (9/5): Superb -
- Sanjay (9/5): Superb -
- Jesveen (10/5): Exceptional - Stayed at the property for two days and we absolutely loved it. It was my wife’s bday so they had arranged a nice cake for us along with flowers. The property itself is beautiful and very cozy. The staff and the owner Kanchana were extremely gracious and wonderful hosts. Will visit again! Thank you :)
- Rumpa (10/5): Beautiful Stay Homey vibes and serene place - Our stay with svarna was a very peaceful and nostalgic, it gave a cozy and warm village vibes but in amidst city, the rooms were spacious and yet comfortable and the interior was just beautiful, i personally look for such boutique and beautiful with nature around and it met all of my expectations, they have their own kitchen where they cooked all the meals required by us and i had no words after eating, it was so delicious so homey and such authentic taste could eat their food all day everyday, me being a hardcore non-vegetatrian did not miss it at all as they offered only vegetarian but was absolutely tasty! The people who helped us with accomodation were very sweet, Pooja with whom i spoke since i had booked the place was an absolute delight to talk to and was very sweet in person as well, and the owners of the place were very warm and welcoming, made us feel like at home and were fun to talk to, helped us with all our requests, the place is also at a very prominent position it's just few minutes away from the main city and beside highway so access to transport was easy, all the know sights are just 10-15 mins away, in all great stay, beautiful ambiance, lovely people.
- Ramesh (9/5): Superb -
- Akshatha (10/5): Exceptional -
- Parag (9/5): One of the memorable stay at Udupi - Food was awesome 🙏🏻 Internet Range and speed issues. No television for kids.
- Venkatraman (7/5): the stay was good, room was good and hospitality of the owner was very good. - Breakfast was very good. 4/5 star rates are charged for the property, but the property does not qualify as 5 star property
- Mini (8/5): Very good - The antic look and features
- Praveen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nipun (10/5): Great - The serene Location and the wonderful host kanchana ma'am
- Puneeth (10/5): Exceptional - Well furnished with a combination of vintage and present gen , overall a beautiful stay for couples
- Kallakuri (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing cottage and facilities. If you want a break from your hustle life, this is the place you should definitely visit. You can live close to nature refreshing and relaxing. The host is very kind and friendly.
Food is amazing, you can experience the authentic local food which is freshly made in the kitchen.
- Tejaswini (10/5): Definitely returning!! - We are always on a look out for off beat places. We were impressed by the architecture of this house. Extremely detailed. The hosts have tremendous knowledge on Indian architecture, we loved chatting with them. Amazing traditional breakfast. Not to miss the pets - cats, dogs and cows.
- Shreyas (10/5): Beautiful place with warmest hosts - This is a very beautiful cottage with a cute loft. Very tastefully appointed to the tiniest detail. The host and the staff are very thoughtful and do everything to make you feel comfortable. Food is delicious and the they serve a wide variety in the set menu. The cottage provides the required privacy despite being in the same space as the hosts.
- Naveen (10/5): Best Stay by the Svarna River - I stayed in Svarna - attic house, had a good time with family. the staff were homely and the owner - Kanchana Pai took good care of everything. The cottage house is built aesthetically with wood completely. It's a must visit for some pleasant stay by the river and nature.
- Amit (10/5): Wonderful stay at the heart of nature and hospitality - Mesmerising natural beauty, twittering of birds, on the banks of the beautiful Suvarna river, away from the hustle and bustle of the city but nevertheless near to the main city of Udupi- Svarna home stay @ Race and Reduce encompasses all of this. To top it up, there's a warm and hospitable treatment from Kanchana Pai and her Husband...just adorable.
You'll feel like "being at home" away from home.
Things I loved the most were- homely feeling, hospitality, nature surrounding the cottage, cleanliness in the cottage, a latent feeling of belongingness (which one may not experience in a commercial hotel), authentic south Indian food, attention to detail while designing this beautiful cottage...
Sit back in the cozy balcony, enjoy bird watching, sip a cup of tea with milk from their own cowshed, read a book and discover yourself...talk to your body. These are the kind of activities you'll yearn to do while you're here.
Cattle egrets, Brahmani Kites, white wattled lapwing, peacock s, pheasant are some birds which I saw here. Egrets following the grazing cattle was a mesmerising experience...
The cottage is perfect to accomodate a family of 4. There's a cosy mezza nine floor that can accomodate 2 adults. This was my favourite spot. The interior designing is just impeccable and one can feel the thoughtfulness with which the things are laid out..
Would definitely recommend Svarna, for a small family yearning to have leisure vacation in Udupi. Nothing that I can think of.
Being close to NH66, there can be sone humming noise of the vehicles hustling around.. bit that didn't bother much
- Nischitha (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic staff, lovely surroundings, and a very cute room. The hotel has the nicest and most helpful staff I've ever encountered. The hotel was outstanding in every way. We had breakfast there, and the place was spotless, spacious, and had great service. The food was excellent and well-valued, and attentive service was provided. The room itself was cozy and very well furnished. I had a great time during my visit. In the future, I plan to return for a longer stay. Everything was great
- Sreenath (10/5): Exceptional - The stay was gorgeous and so thoughtfully built. We had a great time staying here, the loft on top was a great space to unwind(read a book, watch a movie, bird watching). This is a perfect place to be lazy and do nothing if that is what you are looking for. The food was lovely, we had some wonderful home cooked meals which was absolutely yumm.. Thank you for hosting us Kanchana! :)
