We were there for lunch today and opted for the buffet as i have previously had and really enjoyed.
This time it was served in a very tightly packed hall with just two waiters .
The seating priorities was not given any importance. Cutlery was not placed properly or not placed at all...
Most of the dishes was empty throughout...inspite of repeated requests and during our spending of more than an hour many dishes were not replenished.
The quality of whatever was served was good.
But overall experience was harrowing and this is the first time I experiencing it. My earlier visits were very good but this time very bad.

Everthing was good. Helpful and kind staff, express checkin at reception. Rooms are desinged with neccesary requirements. I suggest to improve the breakfast included with the room. Except breakfast, Arcadia is fantastic. Will visit again..

The hotel room are not ventilated properly . The room service are very slow and only available in a very limited timings.
Don't book the vehicle through hotel as they change tariff post completion of the journey. Why hotel can't provide proper printed tariff card to avoid such a situation where they offer one rate and on completion a different. This was very bad experience which we had .
The restaurant was good for lunch but dinner you will get only Chinese menu.
The hotel need good house keeping and better service and a good attitude from F&O manger and General Manger

I’m an NRI person(Malta), on the way to vagamon me and my wife had stayed in a hotel for one night, we reached around 9 o clocks there(not sharp), we reached after a long journey (300km). The front desk guy(the person who collected details for check-in) was an old person, he doesn’t even know how to behave towards the customer, and he treated us like we booked for free. I respect his age, I spoke with another younger guy who was more pleasant and professional(working in same department), he apologised when I made this complaint about that person. Hotel management has to make an audit about how your staff behave towards customers, I will never suggest this hotel to any of my friends. Because of that person, he spoiled our entire stay

The hotel is just opposite to KSRTC stand. Very convenient location in Kottayam. The rooms are clean & neat with good bathrooms. The Service is good.
The breakfast was not good, just OK. For breakfast, they had only tea bags with milk & hot water, there was no ready made tea, which was surprising for a hotel in Kerala

The hotel looks very modern, nice and AC works fine. The TV is android tv which is great because you can log on to YouTube or any other streaming services for entertainment. The sky bar here is an absolute attraction, good drinks, good food, and a beautiful view with a pool. The breakfast here was great, my favorite was appam and chicken curry, great chai and coffee. The staff treat you so well and respond very quickly to your requests. The shops are walking distance from the hotel so transport is not much of a hassle. Would definitely recommend staying here whether you’re a tourist or just revisiting the motherland with your family.

We had a family party in the sky bar and asked for a separate table downstairs for people who were drinking. The people at that table moved from there for a photo session after informing the manager and by the time they came back the table was cleared and was given to new customers without any information. Then they informed that there are no further tables available.
One friend had given his car for parking to the valet and later he found that the headrest with TV was broken at the time of return. The managers refuse to take any responsibility for it.
Overall, very poor experience.

It's right opposite to the KSRTC Bus Stand.
It's a part of the main city, and about 1.5 kms from the Kottayam railway station.
