The bed and breakfast, set in a building dating from 1995, is 2.2 km from Ayurvedic Medical College and 2.5 km from Trivandrum Railway Station. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, full-day security and currency exchange for guests. The best South Indian breakfast we have had in numerous trips to India: excellent quality, lots of choices, delicious food. Our room was spacious; the very modern bathroom had large clean white towels, there was a coffee/tea maker in the room stocked with supplies. The hotel, was clean and quiet, great location on the outskirts of Trivandrum in a residential neighborhood close to a famous temple with several good vegetarian restaurants nearby; convenient to the airport and was a short tuk tuk ride to Kovalam beach. William and the other hotel staff were so very helpful, friendly, and accommodating.

• Nestled along the Coromandel Coast, The Leela Palace Chennai stands as the city’s only oceanfront luxury palace hotel, offering breathtaking views of the Bay of Bengal. Spanning 4.8 acres of serene landscapes, this architectural masterpiece seamlessly blends regal grandeur with world-class hospitality. This was probably the best hotel experience I’ve had so far. Everything was spotless, from the room to all the common areas, and the hotel itself felt spacious. The pool was also clean and overall fantastic. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful.
