Hotel in zona ससने ग्राउंड, Kolhapur

We actually visited the dining and not stay. Opal is quite popular and also very famous in Kolhapur. It is just next to the five star hotel Sayaji. It is also very accessible from main parts of city like the Kolhapur bus stand or railway station. Its nearby localities also have McD and other hotels like Dehati and some more. Must try dishes in Opal which ai would recommend are: For Veg peoples: 1- Veg thali - This is semi unlimited thali with variety of dishes in gravy sabzi, dal, rice, sweet, papadam etc. 2- Panner masala 3- jeera rice For Non- Veg peoples: Well you have varieties to try but I would recommend, 1- Mutton Masala or 2- Mutton Fry 3- Mutton Biryani 4- Chicken Spl biryani 5- Chicken masala 6- Butter Naan for sweet lovers: 1- Lassi is a must drink to try. Thick and creamy. Also you can try the Chas (buttermilk), Solkadi - Very popular drink in Maharashtra side (specially costal regions) this helps in keeping you stomach calm and also helps in acidity and heat problems.

We booked this property via Agoda and stayed for 1 night. This is very near to the Shree Mahalaxmi Ambabai temple. (10 mins walking distance). They have ample parking (Basement and outside). Rooms are also decently sized and extremely clean and well maintained. We booked 1 deluxe room. Breakfast was included with our stay. Only issue was that the server has to bring in the options to your table. There is no buffet. This actually wastes a lot of time. Also had dinner here. We ordered one Chicken pahadi kebab and Paneer tikka masala with butter roti. All the items were delicious. Would surely recommend this place to anyone visiting kolhapur.

L'hotel Silver Oak si trova a Bindu chowk, proprio al di là del college di commercio. Essere su strada occupata è molto difficile ottenere un parcheggio. Ci siamo arrivati all'hotel a 12:25 e il processo di check-in ha preso 15 minuti mentre le camere sono pronte. Le camere sono pulite ma molto piccole e anche la zona di bagno è anche molto configurata. Era piovendo tutto il giorno e si aspettavano acqua calda, ma non c'è possibilità che acqua calda. Non c'è una ventilazione adeguata nelle camere. Il servizio è medio, perché non c'è personale addestrato e non si può aspettare più. Il ristorante dispone di cibo nord-indiano e punjabi, ma il gusto è medio e richiede un sacco di miglioramento. Abbiamo ordinato harabara kabab che è fuori gusto e Veg Kolhapuri è troppo spezia. Nel momento della prenotazione telefonica hanno confermato che il colazione complimentare è disponibile, ma più tardi hanno servito Ala kata con menu limitato. L'area di lobby è troppo piccola. L'unica vantaggio di questo hotel è che è a 10 minuti a piedi dal tempio di Shri Mahalaxmi. Ci sono molti hotel disponibili vicino al tempio. I turisti generali possono ottenere migliori opzioni con lo stesso bilancio.

A very nice budget hotel with all the basic amenities one needs. It's main highlight is the proximity to the temple, at a distance of only about 200-250 m. However, it's just conveniently located to avoid the very crowded street just outside the temple. One can walk down in about 10 mins to the temple. Our biggest decision factor to select this hotel was exactly that. We had our car which we dint want to park in cramped areas near the temple, so leaving it in a parking at the hotel we were staying in was our option. The rooms and the property are well maintained and for an 8 year old hotel look decently new. The ambience is also good. Only downside is absence of a restaurant on the premises. The staff told us that while there was a restaurant functional before COVID (you will still see a mention of the restaurant on the hotel board), it hasn't reopened since the lockdown. The restaurants around the hotel are very small and offer typically local Maharashtrian fare which may not be suitable for all. The reception and staff however are very cooperative in getting food from the surrounding restaurants to your room if you so desire. We managed to order breakfast on both days of our stay there (idlis and poha ***** with tea and chocolate milk for the kids) which was nicely delivered to our room. However for dinner, we had to travel to the newer city areas which are a good 4-5 km away. Without our car, we would have struggled. All in all, a very comfortable stay, sans for the food part which if can be managed like the way we did, this hotel is a very convenient and practical option for staying near the temple.
