I have stayed in this hotel about five times during the past six months. Sometimes with family, alone or with spouse.
Every single time, it has been great. Consistent service, CLEAN rooms & public areas (a rarity in this part of the world!), very good South Indian & a la carte cuisine, excellent Breakfast, courteous staff ... And very good pricing. The food costs might be about 40-50% cheaper than any metro city in India but the quality for the kind of food is similar or more authentic!
All in all a winner!
All other hotels in the area are either in business, for their Alcohol business (BAR ATTACHED! - A BIG deal in God's own country - Kerala! 😊) or are just there for making money... No feeling for the customer OR for the hospitality industry.
And most importantly, this Hotel is just about 10-15 minutes away from the NEW Kannur International Airport , on the Mattanur - Tellicherry highway.
I congratulate the Management for sustaining the hygiene , consistency of delivery and quality of food / service. I just pray that they will STAY DIFFERENT from other hoteliers in the region, who just change completely as soon as they see money coming in!
I believe this hotel will just ROCK once the business peaks, with the launch of the International Airport, which is expected in 2-3 months.
Sorry, one more important point: Authentic Ayurvedic massages available including the traditional Kalari massage! I tried the Kalari massage once and it was brilliant.
