Dwaraka Homestay

Pros- -owner was helpful - he arranged auto for us which made it convenient for us. - auto driver was cooperative. Cons- - we had booked two rooms and there were ac's in both rooms but they weren't working so it was discomforting with the heat of hampi so do talk about it earlier. - when we made small request to take us to different place which was nearer than where auto driver was going to take us , we had to pay extra which we didn't liked

Good for families. Overall nice experience. Owner is very polite, cooperative and caring. Room was clean and spacious. Bathroom and towels are clean. We enjoyed our stay there. Not aware we can get food at Homestay, so missed. But Host guidance for some local food helped us to enjoy local food. Good connectivity Wifi is available. Most important is all sightseeing locations are close.

We have booked rooms for 1850 per night and we needed to leave on emergency next day but the owner forced us pay 3000 per room. The rooms were very dirty and smelly. Lizards everywhere. No refreshing kit was provided but still demanded a lot more money than the rooms worth. We have got his contact through abhi home stays, we didn't contact him directly. This place is not advisable for tourists visiting hampi for the first time. He refused to show us the registration form when we asked why he charged extra money. And he was talking very rude. This shows how ethically the owner is.

Ismail, the owner is a proactive and thoughtful host. The room was clean, working and had all the essentials. It is also situated very close to the main city of Hampi and has ample car parking space. Even though my booking was last minute, he was kind to accept and that too, not at an astronomical price. I strongly recommend it to those looking for a pleasent stay.

Posting this comment as an answer to your response to my review. Mr Naveen(owner of the property)-Please be very cautious on what you state in the public sites. We never committed on the number of days we would stay at your hotel. During the initial cost enquiry, you quoted the price to be 1800/day/room. During check out, you increased the cost and also refused to show us the registration form and other legal details. This shows how ethical you and your business are. Please don’t try to teach us business. We know better ways to sort this out.

The rating is only reflective of the price we paid for the rooms there. The rooms are like small bedrooms with attached bathrooms. While they had a solar heater, hot water was not available in the morning. Probably other visitors consumed it already. Better to have kept geyser. The homestay itself is slightly inside a lane which one may not like at first glance. Also, looks like all visitor rooms are on first floor while the host family uses the ground floor. Since they have a narrow iron stairs, it may not be comfortable for senior citizens or people who are xxl size. Bottom-line, consider that Hampi is not a tier 1 City so only basic facilities will be available. Assume you are visiting a relative who may not be very well to do . I still feel that despite booking long in advance, we clearly overpaid.

Good one to stay and easy accessible for all the major site seeing places. Auto was also provided with extra cost which is slightly on a higher side. However, the auto guy and the owners were really helpful and accommodative.
