“The room was very large, with beautiful furnitures. It has an open balcony and the location is quiet. I would return to the same hotel if I travel again there.”

“The place was nice, cosy and clean, the receptionist friendly. I would just recommend putting mosquitoe net on one window at least. But this recommendation is for almost every place we visited in India.”

“This was my third visit to Mahabalipuram and our first stay at Daphne. It was the best of the 3 hotels I’ve used - all similarly priced. We had a big spacious room with good furniture. We especially liked the sitting out area in front of our room....”

We started the guest house in 1996 as a family business and wanted the guest to have the feeling of being like at home. The indoor garden and multiple terraces gives some freshness. The common areas are there to meet and get together, plus we have a shared kitchen. Daphne's guest house is a quite place to relax and discover Mahaballipuram.
Our staff is there to helps you in the best way. Mister Parthi and staff are there to make your stay in town the most pleasant possible.
Mahaballipuram is an ancient seaport where the ancient Kings builded archaeological wonders. You can explore temples, rock carvings such as the Shore temple, Five Rathas Arjuna's Penance, the Light House and more by walk from our guest house. The beach and multiples restaurant in the neighbourhood gives you the best facilities to spend nice moments in town. Moonrackers and opposite Blue Elephant restaurant are the best places for seafood lovers!
