I used to travel and stay at alot of different hotels in kottayam, recently i had the pleasure of staying at hotel arcadia in kottayam and it was truly a wonderful experience! the staff were friendly and accommodating, making sure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The checkout procedure was also seamless, with a minor wait for room inspection, but it was completed within a couple of minutes, which was completely understandable. Overall, i had a great time at hotel arcadia and would definitely recommend it to others. The hotel's efficiency and hospitality made my stay truly memorable!

This place clearly is past its prime from the looks of it. Our Deluxe Lagoon view room is past its ‘best by’ date. The furniture is fraying, the mirror has big stains, the room had a stink when we checked in, the aircon works only at one setting - 19 degrees. The woodwork has been shoddily repaired, the glass door has turned yellow with grime. The maintenance and upkeep of the property evidently de***ds serious attention. Sadly, when I attempted to show some pictures of the room to the ***agement, it barely caused any concern. I was informed that the extended Covid lockdown - and the tropical climate and moist air, has taken a huge toll on the property. In other words, we really can’t do much! However, supposedly a revamp of the property is underway - doesn’t help us though. While the explanation maybe valid, the nonchalant response was galling and totally unexpected. And any way, why shouldn’t we, as paying guests, expect better? At breakfast this morning, the papaya was un-ripened, the pineapple was overripe and discoloured. And the best. - they couldn’t find decent, fresh and ripe local bananas to serve! At lunch, the Thai green curry was spicy - so spicy and none of us four could eat more than one spoon. We refused to eat it and asked them to take it back. Yet amazingly, it appeared on our bill - no apologies offered. Naturally, we refused to pay for the dish. Quite eventful first 24 hours.

Outstanding
Our 2nd time here after a 6 year break. We had a ‘pool cottage’ and it was awesome. Not only a small private pool but a private covered area at the back to sit quietly and see the birds and wildlife (butterflies, turtles and water monitors) on the small lake within the hotel grounds. In the evening we could sit on the front porch and watch the sunset over the larger lake. The room was lovely, clean, and quiet. Staff were friendly and helpful. Any ‘complaints’ were really first world problems - sometimes it took a very long time to get served tea/coffee at breakfast (I suggested they need two people working full time just for that one job) and occasionally the food wasn’t that hot. We had half board so our meals were buffet style. There was some confusion about whether tables could be reserved but it seemed they can’t be unless it is a special occasion. That wasn’t made clear. It wasn’t until I got to the next hotel that I realised just how much I’d missed a sifter pillow on the bed but next time I’d ask if they had one! There are various free activities to do plus a complimentary afternoon tea. All rather wonderful!!
I booked a 21-day Ayurvedic detox program at Niraamaya Retreats Backwaters & Beyond, expecting a 5-star luxury wellness experience. Unfortunately, it was anything but. In reality, this resort is not even a 3-star property, let alone 5. ✅ The Good ✔ Polite staff – They tried their best, but they are clearly undertrained and understaffed. ✔ Beautiful location – The serene backwater views could have been a highlight if the resort was well-maintained. ❌ The Bad 1️⃣ False Advertising 🏨 The resort is not a 5-star property. The facilities, service, and treatments are subpar. 🌿 The Ayurvedic program was poorly structured, and my prescribed medicine took 4 days to arrive, completely disrupting the detox plan. 2️⃣ Unhygienic and Neglected Facilities 🛏 Dirty rooms – Stained linens, dusty furniture, and unclean bathrooms. 🏊♂️ Private pool was dirty – The filters were off until I explicitly asked for them to be turned on. 🚿 Common areas were neglected – Bird droppings, insects, and a visible lack of maintenance everywhere. 3️⃣ Uncomfortable Accommodations 🛌 The bed was so stiff that I had trouble sleeping and woke up every morning with my whole body aching. 🚫 This is unacceptable for any hotel, let alone one claiming to be a luxury wellness retreat. 4️⃣ Unprofessional Service 🙅♂️ Staff lacked proper training and some struggled with English, making communication difficult. 🕷 A spider web (with what looked like a scorpion) at my doorstep took days to remove, until I finally requested it to be cleaned. 5️⃣ Unsupportive Management 📢 Management was not on top of running the operations. I felt the need to manage the staff for basic housekeeping and service. 🚨 The Ugly: I Had to Leave Early By the 5th day, I couldn’t take it anymore and left early, spending extra money to find better accommodation and treatments in Kochi. 💸 Instead of healing, I left stressed, exhausted, and financially strained. ⚠️ Final Thoughts: Avoid This Place!!! While the staff tried, the quality of the facility, cleanliness, quality of the program and poor service ruined this experience. This is not a luxury retreat, and I strongly advise against staying here…! Kerala deserves better representation than this.. 😞
Dear Simon/Swapna, This message is specfically to record our appreciation of the wonderful and exemplary services rendered by both yourself and Swapna, despite the numerous constraints within which you were operating there in the Hotel. We were really taken in by the stupendous efforts put in by both of you and your team members, especially the service boys, in attendng to the requirements of our guests in a pleasant and satisfying manner. Everyone of the guests have appreciated the services rendered. Once again, please accept our sincere thanks and gratitude for making our stay in White Gate an extremely pleasant and wonderful experience, which we would always cherish. We would also make it a point to patronise White Gate in future, whenever we get an opportunity in the future.
GGuest Useri recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful resort, and it was an incredibly relaxing experience. the ambience inside the property is truly pleasing and serene, with a nature-friendly vibe that immediately puts you at ease. the rooms were well-maintained, spacious, and provided a perfect balance of comfort and style. one of the highlights of the resort is definitely the pool—it’s stunning and adds so much to the overall experience. if you’re visiting, i highly recommend opting for the pool-view villas; they offer an unbeatable view and atmosphere. the food was delicious, with a wide variety of options, although slightly on the pricey side. that said, the quality more than made up for it. lastly, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. overall, a wonderful place for a peaceful getaway!
GGuest UserOverall an excellent experience during the stay. Neat and clean room and bathroom was my first impression. Check in and check out was easy and not so time consuming. Dining in their restobar dining was also a very nice experience. They serves good quality food with an amazing ambiance. Hotel is situated ***** the main road. So everything including transportation facilities, shopping, restaurants are easily accessible. The very famous ettumanoor mahadev temple is just 15 min drive away from the hotel. So whatever is your purpose, i strongly suggest a good stay at malika.
GGuest UserWe had two nights stay at picturesque ILLKKALAM LAKESIDE COTTAGE right on the banks of the lake and were. pleasantly surprised as the nature unfolded before us.
Good location with good facilities and access to all amenities surrounded by organic farm , nature at its best.
Good service through out and personalised care by friendly staff.
Freshly cooked homemade tasty food served to your room and relax in front of the room looking over the lake with boats passing by and beautiful sunset views.
The best part was the relaxed private sunset boat ride on the lake for two of us with stunning views starting right in front of our cottage.
Susan Salin and team have done a wonderful job in making avail of this wonderful property for fortunate few like us.
Special thanks to Asha and Arjun who were always helpful and giving us information of local tours and cultures. Not to forget those amazing cooks who cooked meals as per our taste
We will definitely going to return and recommend to our friends to visit ILLKKALAM LAKESIDE COTTAGES
Thanks once again for serving is the best treat Keep it up 💕🙏😍
GGuest UserMe and a colleague booked this resort for a 1 night stay on 18th September through MMT as part of a business meeting with a client based out of Kottayam. We were traveling from Bangalore and reached the resort at 12pm as per the check in time stated in the booking confirmation, but from reception it was told that they've recently changed the check in time to 2pm however it wasn'tcommunicated to us. After talking and waiting for about half an hour they've alloted the room. Below are our specific experience at Paradise Resort, Kumarakom: 1. Food options in the menu weren't available. Said that there is a party going on for another group, so cheff is busy with that and only limited items are available for other guests. 2. We were having a beer sitting at the varantha of our cottage. Then a staff came, said that he's the GM of the resort and told us there is a police officer and group of friends staying in the resort (two cottage after ours), so we cannot have beer in our cottage's varantha. But this group of people were enjoying drinks in front of their cottage and walking around the property with liquor. So we had a little bit of argument, and our point was ”the rule within the resort should be same for all guests.” The GM wasn't ready to accept that and behaved us in an unprofessional tone. He was often saying he's the GM, also said that they've contact with politicians, police and local leaders, so if you doesn't want to stay then you should leave. It was clear threatening and an unacceptable way of communication from a person who should be treating all customers equally. 3. Finally we complained at MMT and vacated the resort 2 hours after check-in. Even when we were leaving, the way staff and GM communicated was inappropriate. 4. After vacating, we've booked Abad Whispering Palms (a nearby resort) and stayed there overnight. It was an amazing experience at Abad and from all staffs. 5. Overall, Paradise Resort management should give some sort of hospitality training to their staffs. I believe some of the reviews they've on google or other booking platforms are paid reviews. At present this resort doesn't even qualify for a 1 star rating.
