Find Hotels in Kottayam, India

The hotel may give you a very business hotel vibe, but it’s waaay more than that. We were pleasantly surprised to see the hotel offerings; a restaurant with a stunning view of the pool/ backwaters, great food & fab breakfast at the reataurant, friendly staff ever ready to take care of your requests. They even have a 30 mins free boat ride of the backwaters ( small boat). The property itself is massive, with lots of greenery and a sunset deck to spend some great evenings. All in all was a fab place to stay and we’ll definitely be back if we visited Kottayam !

Location is great just opposite the KSRTC Bus station, which makes it easy to get in and out of Kottayam and visit to nearby places. Location also guarantees sufficient places for food and shopping along the main business road. The hotel itself is a real classy hotel, with very nice rooms and very clean and functional bathroom. Bed is comfortable. Breakfast was good and the lobby has free high speed internet. I appreciated the comfort most of all after running through half of Kerala in lesser quality places, and Hotel Arcadia exceeded my expectations. Staffs were extremely friendly and helpful. I would come back and stay here anytime if I am in Kottayam again and would recommend others to do so also. The little higher prices is definitely worth it.

We were 2 families with 3 rooms booked 3 months in advance , reached late evening after hectic drive from Munnar , the manager / reception guy made us wait saying that has cancelled our bookings , But after showing him the booking voucher and insisting him for our rooms , we were allotted different types of rooms on different floors . What was use of us booking in advance then ? He says its season time and he could'nt help us. We had no choice but to accept it . But this is not at all acceptable . During checkout too , much before time ( 9 a.m ) , when we were having breakfast , he insisted to handover room keys , even entered one of the rooms ( occupied by my tenage daughter ) without knocking searching for his mobile charger . Hope other customers don't face similar situation

After two and a half weeks of fairly strenuous travelling around South India this was the perfect way to unwind for a few days at the end of our holiday. The accommodation is not luxurious but it is very comfortable, the food was fantastic and the owners are a lovely couple who did everything they could to make our stay memorable. We would wholeheartedly recommend this homestay.

we stayed in April and we were the ONLY GUESTS in the back. Strange that you had to pass through an outside drinking parlour, before you could enter the gardens where the cottages are. Bathrooms (including toilet) are outside... Cottages are beautiful located at backwaters in a pleasant garden with pool. The downstairs room has no AC, but in the bedroom AC worked well. Our late lunch was delicious, but service slow. Breakfast was a disaster, whatever we ordered came delayed and wrong AND was put anyway onto the bill. The waitress seamed to avoid our table and when we complained to the manager about the service and the bill, we had to wait another half hour for the bill to be fixed!! No excuse, pure unfriendliness! Never again...
