Delicious Vegetarian Cuisine

“I absolutely loved the food served at the Palm Grove Restaurant! The quality was simply superb, especially the masala dosa and podi masala, alongside the idli and vada. I even ordered dinner to pack and was blown away by how good it was, choosing to skip my Shatabdi dinner on the train. The complimentary breakfast had a good spread with a great taste. It is undoubtedly a must-try for anyone who appreciates authentic Udupi flavors.” view full review

Spacious and Comfortable Rooms

“The room I stayed in was incredibly spacious and bathed in natural light, making it a good space to unwind. It was well-maintained, and the cleanliness surpassed what I've experienced in many five-star hotels. Having a large balcony was a bonus, providing a lovely spot to relax, although I wished there was some seating out there too.” view full review

I had a decent one-night stay at Ballal Residency, mainly due to its prime location close to Brigade Road and Garuda Mall.

Overall, my experience was mixed; while the staff were courteous, the sound insulation in my ground-floor room left something to be desired. 🌟
