Le Malabar Hotel

I am writing this review to ensure people have the right expectation on this hotel. TripAdvisor categorized this hotel as Luxury hotel which is not. I booked through agoda which was showing this hotel as 3 star. I saw the 4.5 rating in TripAdvisor, though from just 2 reviews which are old, and was misled. Probably my mistake to trust the rating in TripAdvisor. This is like a good lodge and that is it. They will give you a small soap and Rs.2 shampoo sachet. That is all the toiletries. AC was kind of ok. The wifi was pathetic sometimes showing the speed in kbps. The staff is not trained as it is not a star hotel. It is not their fault that they don't know how to run a hotel. They try to do their best as they know. No toilet roll. No hot water. If people want to stay in a cheaper normal hotel/lodge, this is fine. Do not expect a star hotel as some of the travel sites positioned them.

Totally different from expectations. In normal pipes hot water because in summer these days are very hot and that time you expectation or your first need is at-least normal water you want second ac is not working properly and no landline phone for calling any service in room

Poor room service, no telephone was there, ac was not cooling properly, bathroom drain was blocked, lights wese flickering, which was so irritating.

Basic amenities are present, no option for extra mattress however it was informed through phone that mattress will be available but unfortunately we didnt get any. Charging ports were all loosely connected even-though the provided external adapter it was found to be useless, could be an issue of my room. Staff were nice enough didnt have an issue with room check-in even-though we reached the hotel very late. The hotel is situated in town area and easier mobility options are available. Overall i had a good experience.

Overall, good. It's very near to perinthalmanna town. Neat and clean room. Staff attitude is nice.

Will definitely recommend, well trained staffs, proper maintained property, spacious rooms. Over all i had a really good stay

They charged me extra for the hotel room with breakfast, and when i checked into the hotel, they said they don't offer breakfast and they don't even have a restaurant apparently. I asked for the extra payment collected for the breakfast to be refunded, and flatly and rudely declined. Very unhelpful and rude staff, and i am convinced that the owners are equally responsible for this cheating.

I stayed in ac double room. The experience was good and value for money. Only problem faced was some mosquitos and the matress was soft. Only issue was it put vertically so a gap was generating between two beds. If they put the bed horizontally, it will be better.

Receptionist is not friendly, he is rude and i don't get me breakfast with my package.
