Reviews and Ratings
I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel, which offered an amazing view of the Ashtamudi Lake and the swimming pool from my Suite. The level of comfort provided by the abundance of chairs and couches was truly fantastic. However, the Wi-Fi should have been complimentary for a five-star hotel, and some noise disturbances were present.
I was delighted with the comfy and well-arranged rooms, although the lake view was somewhat obstructed by the adjacent roof. The transition to the king suite, which was incredibly spacious with comfortable beds, was a highlight. The hotel's service was pleasant and attentive, organizing a special evening near the lake, even though there was some reluctance to disclose details about certain events around the closed bar. The serene location, away from noise pollution, brought inner calmness and peace, although it could benefit from a makeover to address maintenance issues. The dining experience was elevated with traditional fish dishes recommended despite limited variety, though the dining area could use some improvements. Overall, a comfortable stay with a blend of positives and areas for enhancement.
My stay at the hotel was simply mesmerizing. The rooms were beautifully designed, and I loved how they were joined with a family room. The check-in process was prompt at 14:00, which was convenient. However, I did notice that the price might not offer the best value for money.
The hotel is surrounded by the lake and nature, creating a lovely ambiance. The rooms are beautifully decorated and spacious, making your stay enjoyable. The staff is extremely professional and cooperative, ensuring you have a comfortable experience. However, the dining experience could be improved with more options during all meals.
The hotel is located in the heart of the backwaters of Kerala, providing an excellent and awesome experience. The rooms offer a small balcony for a beautiful lake view, equipped with kitchen supplies for an additional price. The service is top-notch, with the staff being very kind and providing the best hospitality, especially Jeena. Dining is very affordable compared to other establishments, offering a good spread with fresh catches of fish. The hotel facilities are convenient and enjoyable with opportunities to engage with nature in the enchanting garden of Raviz.
Staying here was an absolute delight! The rooms had a mesmerizing view of Ashtamudi lake and the swimming pool, although some balconies had obstructions. The service was extremely attentive, professional, and stress-melting. The location on the banks of Ashtamudi lake offered picture-perfect scenery and hospitality at its peak. The dining experience was a mix of disappointments with limited breakfast options but compensated with a variety of delicious traditional dishes. Overall, a wonderful stay with a few minor hiccups.
The hotel is nicely located just 5 km from Kollam Railway Station with welcoming and courteous staff. The rooms need refurbishment and were noisy, affecting my sleep quality. The dining options were a mix of awesome dishes and low-quality items. The location by the lake was picturesque, but not properly maintained.
The hotel is situated idyllically on the banks of Lake Ashtamudi, offering stunning views. The rooms are spacious and outstanding, albeit a bit outdated. The service is top-notch, with staff going the extra mile to ensure a comfortable stay. The dining experience is amazing, featuring a good variety of dishes. However, the lack of storage space in the rooms for toiletries is a drawback.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were spacious, but the noise at night was disturbing. The balcony offered a nice lake view, though the discomfort of the separate beds was noticeable. The service was friendly but lacked local knowledge. The location, near my relatives, was convenient, but the property needs an upgrade. The food was sumptuous, but the options were limited.
