I stayed at a pretty decent hotel in Vellore called River View.

Here's the website: Welcome To Hotel Riverview

there are coulpe of new hotels at Sathuvachari, Vellore, i just forgot the name, something like 'krishna', these hotels are situated along the chennai route, so travelling also would be more comfortable. If you have time, you can also visit the rs 300 cr temple, 'malaikoti narayani amman'

The Intention of staying at Vellore was to see the Golden Temple.
When we visted last weekend, there was so much rush, myself and my mother didn;t get a chance to see the temple peacefully.On Thursday, it was for better, and almost with zero waiting time we are able to have dharshan and Archana too.

On hotel none of the so called start hotels in vellore had rooms availble. We had no choice but to stay in lodge by name Veena opposite to CMC. At Rs.700/- plus tax, it had a decent AC room. What I liked most was the clean, crisp bed spreads and extermly clean bathroom and toilet.

However, on friday on the way to Mahabalipuram, got some SoS from office so rushed back to Bangalore.
