The kinds of stay in Mettur

Pick a stay by the trip you are on

One night, passing through

You arrive by bus in the evening and leave in the morning. A lodge near Square Market does the job if you only need a bed. If you want AC, hot water and a desk that is open when the night bus arrives, a residency is worth the small step up. Hotel Akash Residency is about 1 km from the bus stand with a 24-hour desk.

Family weekend at the Dam

Choose a stay with a Family Room that sleeps four, hot water for the children, parking inside the gate and meals under the same roof. Stay in town rather than at a resort if you plan to visit the Dam, the Park, 16 Kannu Madhagu and the fish fry stalls; everything is a short ride away.

Temple trip: Mecheri, Nangavalli, MM Hills

Pilgrim groups leave before dawn. You need hot water early, a desk that is awake at 4 a.m., Twin and Triple rooms so three or four can share, and a dining hall for the group. A central residency beats a resort here; the resort will be in the wrong direction and asleep. See our MM Hills guide.

Work visit to the industries around Mettur

For a work trip you want Wi-Fi in the room, a desk, early breakfast, parking and, if your team is meeting, a conference hall. Hotel Akash Residency has an air-conditioned hall with a presentation TV and pro audio, and the Executive Room has a king bed and a work corner.

Wedding or function guests

Many rooms in one building, a dining hall that can be booked for the whole group, and a hall for the event itself. Call with your dates and the number of rooms; group bookings are easier to arrange early.

A relaxed getaway

If the goal is a garden, a river view and nothing to do, a resort outside town fits. You will need your own vehicle. Our resort near me in Mettur page compares the options.

Stay in Mettur or stay in Salem?

Salem has more hotels, but it is about 50 km away. If your reason for coming is the Dam, the temples around Mettur or work in the town, staying in Mettur saves you two hours of driving a day and lets you see the Dam at sunrise. Stay in Salem only when Mettur is full, which happens on Aadi Perukku, long weekends and the days the dam gates open.

What a stay at Hotel Akash Residency includes

• Six room types for one to four guests, all with AC, free Wi-Fi, TV, hot water and attached bath
• Dining hall serving breakfast, lunch and dinner; bookable for a group
• Air-conditioned conference hall for meetings and functions
• Gated parking at no extra charge
• 24-hour front desk; early check-in or late check-out when a room is free, just ask
• Central location: about 1 km from the bus stand and 2 km from Mettur Dam
