I have had a long association with this hotel and always found it pleasant to stay. The location, bang at Papanasam Beach, while at walking distance from the Janardanaswami Temple, is great. The tortoise motif everywhere keeps telling to 'slow down' and live the life of yours instead of zipping around in a rush. That really is fine. The rooms are, as always, well appointed and each room has a great view of the beach and the sea. Kudos to the Architect (Ar. C Muralee of Trivandrum). Poor response was to phone calls from House keeping was anb unexpected jarring nopte in an otherwise most enjoyable stay. The reception has top class staff. Their Operations Manager, Shri. Anoop, was super helpful in arranging our get together, local travel etc etc and his name is worth mentioning here. Possibly one of the best choices in varkala.

Great Location, just a few minutes walk to Varkala Beach and North Cliff. Its Value for money, but rooms are small and bit dated. Bathrooms are small with basic sub standard toiletries. Breakfast buffet is average but Dosa and other south Indian dishes were good. Outside sitting area adjacent to restaurant was covered with a net with bird droppings This property seriously need maintenance and renovation.

Its a decent hotel and is located right at varkala beach, just 2 mins walk.north cliff and jagannath temples ate also at walking distances. The property is but old and age shows in the rooms. Breakfast has many option and everything tastes good. Service needs a bit of improvement and checkin time also needs to be faster.

Decent but not the best. Views were beautiful and the proximity to the beach and attractions was nice. However the service was not great, we called for extra towels and they never brought them. The towels had stains on them and were clearly not clean, very unsanitary. The a/c button did not work and we could not change the temperatures, which made it difficult to get proper sleep. We were situated in the executive suites and had access to the pool. The entire outside area was covered in bird droppings and was not clean. There were also no chairs or furniture to enjoy the outdoor area given to executive suites.

This a nice place to spend time with family. You can see from your window seat. Which we liked a lot. From hotel it's 2 minutes distance. Rooftop resturent is a added advantage which makes our stay more pleasant. We also enjoy the swimming pool. Even kids have 1. 5 feet hight swimming pool. Breakfast was nice. Food quality is average.

Location is good. Hygiene is good. Food is average according to my taste. Only thing that bothers me is i feel cheated as at the time of booking i opted for breakfast and lunch/dinner and paid higher price but when i reached my booking detail was not showing lunch dinner instead for paying higher price they gave extra bed which i haven’t selected as it is not required. So that is the most disappointing thing. Though the main staff is helpful but guards are very rude i asked swimming pool guard whether i can go in the pool with my son in casual clothes he rudely denied i accepted as it was written that swimsuit is required but then i saw other people going to pool in casual clothes. Also when my son was enjoying in the pool he rudely told him not to make noise as if we came to classroom and not for holidays. If this dinner blunder doesn’t happened with me hotel for the stay is very nice
