Poornima Tourist Home

Poornima Tourist Home was founded in 1983 by the visionary entrepreneur Shri E.T.Somasundaran and has since established a reputation for efficient hospitality standards. In close proximity to the holy Shree Krishna Temple, Guruvayoor, the devotees have the best access to the temple at all times.

“A Mariyamma Bhagavathy temple is also located within our premises behind our building for those keen devout visitors. A monthly pooja is conducted as an offering to the Bhagavathy.”

The Hotel prides itself on its well maintained and comfortable rooms of various types to suit varying customer needs. With friendly service and close attention to customer satisfaction, we hope the darshan of Lord Guruvayoorapan will be a memorable one.

You can walk to darshan

No auto, no parking hunt, no calling a driver at 3 am. Step out of the door, turn left, and you are at the eastern gate in four minutes.

Elders

Built for elders

A lift to every floor, grab-friendly bathrooms, ground-floor rooms held back for those who need them, and staff who will carry the bag without being asked.

Families

Family rooms that fit a family

Rooms for four and six, a ten-bed hall for groups, and extra bedding at no cost for children. Nobody sleeps in the corridor.

Weddings

A hall for the wedding after

Many families book the temple and then look for a hall. Ours is downstairs — 150 seats, dining for 60, and rooms for the guests upstairs.

Pricing

The rate on the board is the rate you pay. GST included, no service charge, no festival surprise at check-out.

The function hall set for a gathering
Weddings & functions

Marry at the temple. Feed everyone downstairs.

A hall built for the way Guruvayoor weddings actually run — an early muhurtham, a hundred relatives, and a sadya that has to be served on time.
