Need help with Hotel Recommendations - Mysore - ITC or Marriot preferred

[AlgoTrader]

So I am planning on a trip with family (wife + toddler) to Mysore in Dec 2024 and need your help/recommendations for selecting the place to stay. Planning to stay for 3 nights and will be travelling by car.

I have useless SC Ultimate card and planning to close it in Jan 2025. I have approx 30K points, which can be redeemed for either ITC Hotel Voucher or Marriot Voucher. But I am new to this hotel bookings and stuff.
Based on my search so far, here is my finding
1. there is no Marriot property in Mysore - is this right?
2. There is only 1 ITC property - Fortune JP Palace Mysore, - is this right?

Also, if these are the only options available for booking through points, I am open to try other hotels as well. is there any other recommendations here?

It would be of great help if someone can answer these queries.

Yes, there is no Marriott property in Mysore

ITC is a good option based on location and price. I haven't stayed there so can't comment on hotel and service.

You can also take MMT vouchers (assuming they are e-pay vouchers) and then book using MMT (most options around 4-5k are pretty good.

Thanks for this bro, saved me from world of trouble, so JP Palace is not in the ITC redeemable list, so cant use either of the vouchers from SC.

Any recommendations for stay as all options is now available, budget 5-10K per day

I had wonderful experience at ITC Narmada & ITC Rajputana with my wife & 1 year old child.

Don't know about quality of hospitality Mysore, however ITC can be recommended for family.

thanks bro, leaning towards JP Palace. Windflower and Silent Shores also caught my attention, would love to hear from someone who had been to any of these recently

If Accor is you thing, there is a grand mercure and recently opened Ibis.
Mercure may be worth it.

I've heard good things about the Radisson too there.

Ratings, and even otherwise, you cant go too wrong with Regenta, Sarovar Portico or Royal Orchid.

Windflower too may be worth it.

PS: All this is based on my previous considerations ONLY and suggestions by folks who've stayed in the above properties.

Stay away from grand mercure
JP Fortune and Radisson are great options - close to the city and great service.

There is lalith mahal palace you can explore if you are interested in vintage properties
Silent shores is away from city, recommended only if you wish to stay in.

Windflower is great nothing amazing though(it is old)
Check out ivaana resorts, pretty new one.

Recently an Ibis Styles has opened up, though its outside of ring road, you would atleast be able to burn some points on it.

If you want a budget stay and want the best located place for sightseeing
Check out hotel grand serene, its a brand new property and many attractions of the city are at a stone throw distance
If i was a visiting, thats the property i would choose if not radisson
