Thermen Hotels in Varkala

Our stay was perfect. The resort has a fantastic view of the ocean. The pool is really nice. Their breakfast buffet is also pretty good. Best part they also serve evening tea. Their staff is very courteous and helpful if you’re travel-ling with a baby they will even take care of the baby food they have a private beach which is clean and peaceful. You wont need to go to ny other beach

Oh dear, this hotel has seen better days. Tired, I think is the word. During a two-week trip to Southern India we stayed in five different accommodations including a houseboat, beach huts and hotels, but sadly finished off our trip with a five-night stay at the Hindustan, which was the worst accommodation we stayed in. The staff were all pleasant - especially the chef in the restaurant who greeted us every morning with a smile and soon got to know what we liked, and the gentleman who attends to the pool - the room was cleaned daily, and had terrific views, but the whole hotel needs some money spent on it. Quite a bit of money! For instance, instead of a double bed we had two single beds pushed together. Bad enough as that is, but the sheets didn't even fit! They were too short due to the odd shape of the bed. This proved to be really, really frustrating. The most ridiculous thing, however, is that upon check-out you're handed a leaflet detailing all the tourist places we 'could' have visited had we known about them earlier! These included the Janardanaswami Temple, Golden Island, Kappil Beach, the Sivagiri Mutt ashram, Sri Mahaprahuji Btak (a devotee to Sreenathji), and even elephant rides around the village of Puthenkulam. Our son checked-out a day before us, and this happened both times. Surely, anyone could see this leaflet would be more beneficial at the start of our stay! It actually fills me with sadness to think that we missed out on visiting one of two of these places

In Strandnähe: Die Zimmer liegen in der Nähe der Klippe. Zimmerservice: Sie sind nicht hilfsbereit. Bei der Ankunft verlangen sie die volle Bezahlung, bevor sie Ihnen die Zimmer zeigen, und rechnen damit, dass Sie enttäuscht werden. Sobald die Zahlung erfolgt ist, endet ihre Verantwortung. Zimmerzustand: Ich habe verschiedene Fotos von Hotels gesehen und verschiedene Zimmer bekommen. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass ich getäuscht wurde. Parken: Es sind keine eigenen Parkplätze verfügbar. Ich habe auf der Straße geparkt. Geschäftsführer: Er ist sehr unhöflich. Am Telefon sagte er uns, er würde Essen servieren, aber bei der Ankunft bestritt er dies. Zimmergröße: Buchen Sie keine Standardzimmer mit Klimaanlage; sie sind sehr klein und Sie werden keine Aussicht haben. Gesamtbewertung: Bei diesem Preis erhalten Sie viele Optionen. Wenn Sie dies buchen, halten Sie Ihre Erwartungen niedrig.

Die Lage ist gut und das Hotel ist nur gut. Erfordert eine Renovierung um den Weg zum Strand. ***y wählen Sie diese Lage für den leichten Zugang zu den Stränden, wenn dies nicht gewahrt wird es zu Enttäuschung führen. Das Spa ist nicht von der Erwartung und die Wartung des Spa ist sehr schlecht. Essen ist über dem Durchschnitt. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist gut, aber für diejenigen, die länger bleiben, fehlt die Vielfalt. Insgesamt war es eine gute Erfahrung. Der Betreuer am Pool Mr. Babu ist sehr gut, er sollte für seinen guten Service belohnt werden. Insgesamt sind die Hotelpersonal freundlich und gut ***nered und hören unsere Sorgen.

I’ll start by saying that we only booked this guesthouse as it was pretty much the only one available for our dates in Varkala that seemed well located and wasn’t a hostel in a dorm room (we are a married couple in our 30s and are passed the days of sleeping in a dorm bunk bed!). BIG MISTAKE! Following 7 weeks of travel in India and staying in almost 20 different guesthouses and homestays, this was by far the worst! One of the most expensive out of all the properties we stayed in and by far the worst in terms of facilities, value for money and management. Where to begin… 1. Frequent power cuts on our first day turning the lights and AC off in the room 2. We stayed in two rooms (one AC and one fan). Almost none of the plug sockets worked in either room with the exception of one 3. The shower was practically pointless and the water came out in a tiny trickle in both rooms. Not very practical for showering. We used the bucket for showering (which we have done many times in India, but not expected here considering it cost 2-3x more than other properties we stayed at in India). It’s also a wet room (common in India), but no mop/brush to push all the excess water into the drain (we had this in majority of our other guesthouses) so you’re walking into a soaking wet bathroom every time you enter 4. The rooms didn’t feel 100% clean - we were walking on sand before we even went to the beach and even felt sand in the bed! 5. Speaking of the bed, this was rock hard and super uncomfortable 6. We shared our AC room with 4/5 geckos each night. We are ok with nature and insects so this wasn’t a huge deal for us but just FYI incase you are not. There are vents in the room that allow insects in easily, despite them having some sort of sellotape over them to try and prevent this 7. There was construction work happening (either the property itself or next door). When in the AC room we were woken up quite early each morning with loud banging and drilling practically outside our window. The workmen also left their tools on our balcony 8. We were interested in doing the cooking class offered but were told that this was not available because the owner Suresh was too busy at his other property in Varkala (it’s called Gypsy Walker so will assume is also poor quality). Just as well, wouldn’t have wanted to have given another penny to this property! 9. The property requests that shoes are taken off before entry and left on the designated shoe rack. Respectful of the property’s policies and Indian culture we did just that. On the last day, one of our pairs of shoes was stolen from the rack. We know this happened that day as they were there late morning when we went out but not the evening when we returned to get them. When we informed Suresh of the issue, he was incredibly rude, shouting abuse at us down the phone and accused us of lying to get compensation out of him - incredibly insulting to say the least. We were told that no one has access to the property

Fantastic hotel and staff, I want to mention: Praveen, the general manager, made the time to come and speak to us , very professional! Suralal, Adarsh and Deepu, the front office team, what can we say, these 3 were amazing, helpful, nothing was too much trouble...and kept in supply if many cups of coffee! Vishnu, Kavitha and Prashant, the housekeeping team, excellent service, room was spotless every day, and the towel art was fantastic, Lovely surprises! Sunil, the chef...it was like having our own private chef, the dishes he cooked for us were out of this world, the flavours were amazing something deliciously different every day! And thanks to Ambili and Kishnar Kutty, the kitchen team, their help with the dishes and the service they gave was impeccable. Thanks to Raju (day) and Mohan (night), the guards, very attentive and always a wave and a big smile. Finally Kilson and Anil, the maintenance team, always on hand to help with any problems. Thank you all, you should all be so proud of yourselves, the hotels reputation only has you all to thank.
