Mattura Hotel

Mattura Hotel is located in the Annapurneshwari Building right in the Pumpwell area. If you know Mangalore, you know Pumpwell is a major junction. There is always a lot of dust and noise from the buses and cars passing by. We are on the ground floor, so it is easy for people to just walk in. It is more of a budget hotel and eatery. We have some rooms for people who are just passing through and need a place to sleep for a night. The restaurant part stays busy during breakfast and lunch hours. We serve the usual local fare. Nothing is overly seasoned or fancy. The plates are stainless steel and we use a lot of coconut in our cooking because that is the Mangalore way. We spend a lot of time washing the floors because of all the mud people bring in from the street. The building is older, so we are always fixing a leaky tap or a light bulb. It is just a regular business run by regular people. We do not have a fancy lobby or a concierge. You come in, you get your room key or your meal, and that is it. It is honest work and it keeps us busy from dawn till dusk. We usually stay open late because the buses at Pumpwell never really stop coming and going.
