Rhythm Kumarakom Hotels in Kottayam

Rhythm Kumarakom

"The front desk and reception staff was terrible. We got a v cold welcome and the sandwiches ordered for my senior citizen mother came after 2 hrs of running around the property ourselves. The room was in a dilapidated shape, dirty towels and footmat. The walls were chipped in 312, not maintained and the washroom flush was not working. Since we had travel-led from thekkady a 3 hr journey to kumarakom, we had requested for sandwiches for my mother when we reached and gave her sugar meds. Little did we know that we would have to run around for 2 pieces of sandwiches for almost 2 hrs and make umpteen calls and visits to the reception. Highly unprofessional and unwelcoming reception staff. Inf-act we felt they didn’t understand our language and looked at us blankly only nodding their heads with no action. The abhor-able behaviour of the reception staff completely put us off. They were rude and indifferent making us feel unwelcome. The manager mr jyothish visited us and was apologetic but the experience had already been marred. Only saving grace was the chef gopi and his team who were polite and excellent food was served. Mr abhishek and housekeeping for rooms was courteous & hospitable too. Overall will not recommend rhythm at all, at the current state of affairs, it seems they are short staffed and overworking their people also. They really need to shape up, step up their training, teach soft skills to their staff, inf-act teach them how to welcome guests and be polite at the least. At least maintain the property. At the cost we paid it was disappointing to get this kind of dis-service."

Coconut Lagoon Kumarakom- a CGH Earth Experience Hotels in Kottayam

Coconut Lagoon Kumarakom- a CGH Earth Experience

"My friend and I had the best 3 day stay at Coconut Lagoon. From the check-in to the check-out, all the stuff were wonderful, kind and friendly - a special mention to Liji, Jasmine and Remya chechi, and Jason chettan for being so attentive and kind. The facilities at the resort are amazing, our private bungalow was beautiful, spacious, clean and comfortable. The many free activities and entertainment at coconut lagoon were also so good: evening performances, the ammachi who gives out chayya and snacks, and the evening sunset cruises. The wildlife is incredible, and it was clear to see that this resort is a haven for the all butterflies, lizards and the three gorgeous vechur cows that stay there. The food is another highlight - both the general restaurant and the seafood restaurant were sensational. I couldn't have asked for a more memorable or special trip. We were able to leave the restaurant via the resort boat at any time we needed, including when we had to leave at 3am to catch our return flight, and the team were so accommodating at all times. Thank you to all the staff at Coconut Lagoon <3"

Taj Kumarakom Resort and Spa Kerala Hotels in Kottayam

Taj Kumarakom Resort and Spa Kerala

"Exceptional hospitality at Taj Kumarakom We visited Taj Kumarakom in July 2026, and we had a wonderful experience with the hospitality throughout our time there. Femi deserves a special mention for the care and attention she gave us. She was incredibly warm, responsible and thoughtful, always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. What we particularly appreciated was how well she understood our preferences and how much effort she put into accommodating them. She even arranged special dishes we particularly liked that weren’t on the regular menu, having things specially curated for us. It was such a lovely touch and made our dining experience feel genuinely personalised. Femi has a wonderful way of making guests feel at ease. She took care of us like family, paying attention to the little things without ever making it feel like an effort. Her willingness to go beyond what was expected really stood out to us and added so much to our stay. It’s this kind of thoughtful, attentive service that makes a difference at a property like Taj Kumarakom. We truly appreciated everything Femi did to make our experience enjoyable, and I hope her efforts receive the recognition they deserve. Thank you, Femi, for making our time there so memorable!"

Green Fields Kumarakom Hotels in Kottayam

Green Fields Kumarakom

"Had just one night here on an Intrepid Tour of South India. A lovely modern hotel with good rooms and restaurant. Pleasant staff too. There is also a nice swimming pool etc. What makes this hotel is its suburb setting overlooking paddy fields. There is a delightful raised outlook area to sit, have a refreshing drink, chill overlooking the fields/water and to watch the birds etc. etc. You can also do a great local walk around the river/water. Definitely recommended."

Holiday Vagamon Hotels in Kottayam

Holiday Vagamon

"We stayed in the tent. They have maintained the property but tent stay was not at all good because if the below reasons: 1. Lizards and spiders were in the bathroom and when told the reception he took it very casually and put it on the weather. 2. Lights outside tent was not working and it was complete dark outside. So after 7 pm one cannot sit outside. Service guy was not able to fix it either. 3. Internet was not working. When complained they said it's not working since few days overall service was not good and management was not at all bothered about any of the issue. It was waste of money and time."

Chrysoberyl Hotel and Convention Centre Hotels in Kottayam

Chrysoberyl Hotel and Convention Centre

"The reality was a dimly lit reception area with an almost deserted vibe, suggesting very few guests actually stay here. We opted for a premium room, which was spacious, but unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. The room key never worked, requiring someone from reception to accompany us to the 4th floor each time to unlock the door. Basic supplies were missing — despite booking for triple occupancy, there was just one towel and dental kit provided. The bed sheets seemed unwashed for ages, and the dark, gloomy pathways to the rooms felt eerie and unwelcoming. Breakfast was the most disappointing aspect of the stay. By the time we arrived around 9:40 AM, most items were unavailable. Idlis were rock-hard, appams were cold, and there was no gravy for the egg curry. The limited staff multitasked everything — one lady handled cooking, cleaning, and refilling buffet items, while another staff member alternated between clearing plates, serving tea, and manning the reception desk. The lack of professionalism was glaring. Additionally, the hotel lacks a proper restaurant; the so-called coffee shop seemed like a token setup. There was no room service after 6 PM, not even for basic tea or coffee. While the hotel did offer covered parking, even that was poorly managed. One morning, the entrance was blocked by a van, adding to the frustration. The confusion around the check-in policy added another layer of inconvenience. To their credit, they courteously extended our stay without additional charges, adhering to a 24-hour check-out policy. This is the only reason for giving them one star rating. Else they deserve zero star. While the staff were polite and tried their best, We strongly recommend avoiding this hotel."
