Very Good

Great experience! Staff was kind and friendly. May be the rooms could all be modernised from inside as the old tiles give a bit of a dull outlook. Lighting inside the rooms needs to be brightened too. Some rooms we booked didn’t have proper Air-con controls.

The Leela, Kovalam is an amazing hotel, which my 11 year old son and I would highly recommend! It is on a cliff top overlooking the Arabian Sea. We upgraded to Club Room, which provides you with access to The Cafe, a restaurant serving Club members complimentary breakfast 7-10:30am and High Tea 5-6pm and additional a La carts chargeable lunch and dinner. The Club room is exceptional, with a balcony with table and chairs overlooking the Arabian Sea, King bed with very comfortable mattress and bedding, fantastic walk in shower, sink and toilet, with all the toiletries. Rooms are cleaned well and the food is wonderful. We ate everything safely with no upset stomached here and the staff were wonderful! We would happily return!

The hotel has a great location, we took a room in the main building. Beautiful and well-kept grounds, the staff is friendly, they were always interested in our wishes. The pool is small, but the rooms with a view of the garden and the club rooms have their own pools, so there were few people, you could easily sit on the sun loungers.
I didn't like the intrusive taxi drivers at the entrance to the hotel. We called an Uber, but they didn't let the driver pick us up! We had to go up a little higher (towards the Gokolam hotel) and only there we were able to get into the car. Very unpleasant, and for a hotel of this class it is not clear why they allow a taxi stand, we felt unsafe! Keep in mind that if you use an Uber, the driver will not be able to enter the hotel grounds or even the gate, you need to go higher up the road, only there you can get into the car, bypassing this mafia of taxi drivers.
