4-star hotels in Udupi
A shortlist of 4-star hotels in Udupi and its surroundings, from the temple heart of the city to the university town of Manipal and the coast. It is for travellers who want a rated place to stay while seeing the temples, the beaches and the food of coastal Karnataka.
Staying in Udupi
Udupi is a temple town on the Malabar Coast, known for the Sri Krishna Temple and the Chandramouleshwara Temple, for its vegetarian restaurant-style cuisine, and as an educational hub. The landscape runs from the Western Ghats in the east to the Arabian Sea in the west, with coconut palms and paddy fields in between.
The hotels on this list are spread out rather than clustered in one quarter. Chithara Comforts, Venky'S Stay Inn and Sri Vidya Palace sit in the city centre, close to the temple area and Car Street, while Tea Tree Suites Manipal and Country Inn & Suites by Radisson Manipal are in Manipal, the university town about 5 km away. Others stand further out at Kalyanpur, Nejar, Karkala Road, Dendoorkatte, Bada Yermal and Padubidri. The mix suits couples and short-break visitors who want to be near the temple, families who need family rooms and kitchens, and business travellers who need meeting and business facilities in Manipal.
