The classiest option if you want to be close to the temple and market action. Rooms
are small but stylish, with extra-comfy mattresses and a fresh wood-and-whitewash
theme. There's free wi-fi in the lobby. Nearby

Vasanta Bhavan
(3 NSB Rd; mains ?50-80, thalis ?80-110; 6am-11pm)
A good spot for a meal with a view and, with
luck, a breeze near the Rock Fort. Tables on the outer gallery overlook the Teppakulam
Tank. It's good for North Indian veg food - that of the
paneer
and naan genre - as well as
South Indian. It gets very busy at lunchtime when people crowd in for the good thalis.
There's another
