East End Hotel, was established in the year 1970 by Mr.K.K.Uttaiah, a forest officer is a Landmark Hotel in downtown Madikeri. Started as a Motel for travellers travelling from Mysore to Mangalore and vice versa. East End Hotel continued the customs and traditions of the bygone British era with white linen for dining tables and clean large rest rooms.It was patronised by the elite of South Coorg , Mysore and Mangalore.With great demand and popularity,the Motel was transformed into a hotel with a well planned spacious dining area and few reserved rooms for family dining. East End Hotel was one of the first hotels in the region to serve with clean stainless steel crockery and cutlery.Hot water was served throughout the day both for drinking and hand wash ( finger bowl).

The one star rating is for the service given by P.M. Rajesh who was as rude as it can get. Since the moment me and my family walked in, he was rude.
