This is definitely not a hotel i would recommend. I found it very highly priced for the quality and amenities offered. the location is good and the service was acceptable but the rooms were shoddy. Hardly any amenities in the room. Not a hotel i will stay in again given a choice

This hotel gives the words Southern Hospitality a new meaning. The hotel itself is fairly ordinary, a good western standard, kept clean, with all the basic amenities (except no clocks anywhere in the room). But the staff makes this place SING! From the check in to the servers in dining, to bell staff, to concierge, we were made to feel... More

I had a great stay here in this efficient and pristine hotel. Very good for business, clean tidy room with helpful staff and great food. The dinner time music is a bit naff however. I only used the business facilities which had an adequate air conditioned room and a business lunch room.

One of the things that make me feel proud of my country is the Taj Group. Consistent in great hospitality, thoughtfulness and non-intrusive yet warm service. The Taj Vivanta, Trivandrum is no exception. The food was great, as it always is at the Taj, the room was comfortable, their toiletries are made by Forest Essentials, the service was fantastic, but... More

A very nice welcome with excellent service & a spotless attractive room. We were very pleased we had booked hear to finish our cycle tour of Southern India. We just wanted to hang around the pool in the afternoon which was nice (perhaps a little sterile) but lacking in sun loungers, after 1/2 hour or so we did eventually get... More
