Teuer und enttäuschend, sind die letzten 10 Tage in ein anderes Hotel umgezogen. Geld verloren
Pros:

Die Lage des Zimmers war schön und die Angestellten waren sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend

Cons:

Das Badezimmer war eine Zumutung. Die Badewannen sind mit Farbe gestrichen, die überall abblättert. Das Wasser läuft nicht richtig ab und kommt zwischen den Fliesenfugen heraus. Überall ist etwas defekt. Seien es Lampen die abgebrochen sind und nur noch am Kabel hängen oder Schalter die nicht funktionieren. Es bräuchte dringend Renovationsarbeiten

Atmospheric, traditional and kind
Pros:

It is a place full of character. Delightful staff (limited English with some did not take away from their kindness and personal care).
The building is all traditional Kerala, lots of dark wood, and a very amusing lift playing Tamil music.
My balcony faced the fires of coconut palms, with birds occasionally calling out, but the dominant sound was the breakers as the beach is 20 metres down the lane.
The room was spacious and comfortable: a bit old fashioned so this is not a modern smart business hotel. It is much better.
I really enjoyed my stay.
The worst thing was the feeble WiFi.
Plenty of storage and the bathroom entirely adequate.
Its proximity to the beach, the quieter end, is a bonus.

Kovalam Beach Hotel Review:
Pros:

Kovalam Beach Hotel is an absolute gem by the beach. From the moment you arrive, the staff makes you feel incredibly welcome, and the accommodations are just luxurious, offering stunning views of the ocean. The food is amazing, with a variety of options to suit every palate, and dining with the ocean as your backdrop is truly magical. There's so much to do here, Overall, it's the perfect mix of luxury and relaxation, and I can't wait to come back for another unforgettable stay.

Absolutely Charming Stay at Kovalam Beach Hotel!
Pros:

Nestled close to the iconic Kovalam Beach, this hotel offers an authentic Kerala experience. The traditional architecture with its wooden features exudes warmth and charm. The homely food served here is simply delicious, adding to the overall experience. What truly sets this place apart is the friendly owner and the cooperative staff who go above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. The rooms are impeccably clean, making it a perfect retreat after a day at the beach.

Good, can be recommended
Pros:

The hotel and the breakfast is good, However the size of the room and bathroom are too small. The best thing is the exclusive veranda, where you ca spend your time. Although the hotel claims the room has sea view, but you can hardly see the ocean, because of the presence of big trees . I have seen a few peacocks moving around the hotel. Over all experience is good

Good but not satisfactory
Pros:

We have enjoyed our stay at your place
Few points are to be noted
1) Beautiful artistic Balcony & presence of ethnic values are visible throughout your hotel and rooms.
2) You have people like Sujoy who was very caring and helped us every possible way.
3) Disappointing facts are that Geyser was not working & no cook & food was available.
Hope you will be more transparent with your future guests if you have issues like this.

Very pleasant stay at Kovalam beach
Pros:

I enjoyed my stay at the Kovalam Beach Hotel very much. The peacock on the balcony made me decide which room i wanted. Rounded by the birds sounds, peacocks and the sound of the sea it's a pleasure to stay at this place for a longer time. The staff is very helpful, like the owner, Viju and his wife, Deepthi. Rooms are very nice, with airco, which was very nice this time of the year in January. It's also close to the Groove beach, where it's more quiet. A good place to swim in the morning.
The food is very nice and because i was doing an Ayurveda treatment the food was adapted to my diet. Room was also cleaned properly, so it was a very good stay. I will certainly come back! Thank you all for a very pleasant stay!

Great Hotel and Truly Amazing Hosts
Pros:

My stay in the Turtle Lounge at the Kovalam Beach Hotel was nothing short of magical. The sound of the ocean waves lulled me to sleep, and the sunrise from my private huge balcony was truly amazing.
The architecture of the hotel reflects the true heritage of Kerala with all those art works, lights, ambiance.

Special Kudos to the hosts. You truly made our stay special with your hospitality & help throughout our stay..
I would definitely be visiting again & recommend the hotel to my friends.

Avoid…well past it’s book by date.
Pros:

Location, friendly helpful staff (except the manager), hot water, balcony, view, air conditioning in room

Cons:

Admin and booking system in total confusion, cannot pay with credit card, Could not have the room I booked on the first night, very poor wifi, gloomy sticky breakfast room, filthy leaking cheap bathtub, poor hygiene, 5.5 foot high bathroom doors. I imagine this hotel was lovely 50 years ago when it was built, but the lack of maintenance, and the inability to repair anything or clean anything has turned this place into a dingy dive, the manager was spaced-out and ineffectual..probably the cause of all this ruin. Baffling and illogical procedures. There is a lot of garbage at the bottom of the road by the beach.
