Stay in Suit Room at Residency Tower.
I have blown away by the exceptional level of customer service provided by the hotel management and front of house staff in arranging everything to make our stay an amazing one.
Beds were super comfy and amazingly quiet as opposed to creaky noisy ones at other hotels.
Lekha and the Hotel Technician(I think his name is Gopan) helped us with storing my daughters feeding bags in the required trmperature and i am very grateful to both in going an extra mile in supporting us.
Break fast and other meals at their restaurant were very tasty. There is always a good selection of items.
Staff is very professional and polite.

Worst 4 Star Hotel - This is average 3 star!!
This is definitely not a 4 star hotel will say more a 3 star. I have stayed in numerous hotels from 2 stars to 5 stars and this hotel does not deserve to be 4 star at all will recommend to have audited again to at least claim for 3 star only. Worst 4 star hotel but average 3 star.
1. Swimming pool was under maintenance but during booking was told that all OK but was like that for over 3 weeks plus making excuses on government covid restrictions when other hotels had available pool.
2. Lack of communication when I sent numerous messages but nothing replied however they promised me 10,000 Rupees compensation voucher to spend at hotel but they never stood by to their promise during checkout
3. The rooms smell like dampness with stained pillow cases and stained towels.
4. The housekeeping was never consistent on cleaning, replenishing items like water bottles, toiletries, changing towels, etc.
5. WiFi was very poor and we had to request the user & password but still was about 1 - 2 Mb/s.
5. Breakfast was very less items for continental however Indian food was very good and tasty plus the live station staff was excellent, hence why I gave 1 star otherwise this hotel only deserves 0 for claiming to be 4 star. If it claims to be 3 star I would have given 3 star.

A very comfortable stay
Great location in the heart of Trivandrum..with easy access to almost everywhere in the city. The hotel itself was very good..we stayed for a longish 6 nights as we spent time with family and explored Trivandrum, Kovalam and Kanyakumari. Hotel staff was very courteous and helpful. The breakfast spread was good too, and the staff picked up on our likes and dislikes on day 1, remembered them, and served us accordingly..which was commendable!
Our room was nice.. comfortable and well-appointed. Only drawback - although drinking water was complimentary, for some reason, they would keep rationing it one litre a day. Even when we asked for more..which was a bit odd.
