Immerse yourself in the history of the home, adding your presence to the energy of a well-lived and well-loved space.

I loved our stay at Akkara - a home away from home . It was relaxing , refreshing and rejuvenating . Meeting the owner of the property , Shatha ,was a treat and her mother just added to the whole experience . Freshly cooked authentic Syrian Christian cuisine was delicious. The ayurvedic treatment is highly recommended.

Amazing stay far from touristic places

Reviewed By Emiaroundtheworld

I spent 4 nights at GK homestay and I had an amazing time. The homestay is located in the middle of the backwaters, far from touristic areas. My hosts organised a tuktuk to come pick me up from the train station, which worked out great. The room itself is small, but it contains everything you might need. Georgekuti and his wife were super nice, cooking amazing meals adapted to my dietary requirements, and I really felt like I was part of the family during my stay! Their home is surrounded by the backwaters, so I spent quite some time exploring them by foot, public ferry, and then traditional boat during a cruise organised by my hosts. I also really enjoyed the Ayurvedic massage Georgekuti organised for me. All in all, a place I highly recommend for anyone interested in discovering this beautiful part of Kerala!

First I should thank Mr.Ajith, he took care of us from starting to ending. He was such a friendly guy and he is taking care of this homestay with his parents. Very clean and neat rooms. Tasty home made food. Couples and family can choose this place without any hesitation. Believe me I am going to suggest this homestay to all my friends, who come to Kumarakom or Kottayam.

Excalibur Royal tower

Reviewed By sinam468

The excalibur hotel register put us at the second floor. can't get a good night sleep with the constant machinery running noise. The hotel lobby is very nice to put us on a different floor. Room is quieter and with a better view. Room doesn't have coffee pot nor microwave. A cup of coffee costs $4+, so bring your own kettle.

Iswarya Residency

Iswarya Residency is a charming hotel in Kottayam town which offers great value for money....the hotel is located near to Thirunakkara Mahadevar Temple....and Kumarakom.... backwater tourism is is just 11 km from the hotel...

Clean and spacious rooms.

Reviewed By ajc7506

We have stayed here between May 3-6, 2018. The room was very clean and spacious, unlike most hotels. There was quite a bit of furniture too: two chairs and coffee table, a dresser, study table with chair and another teepoy, in addition to the cupboard and a huge bed, which is more than sufficient for a family of four. Despite the furniture the room was spacious enough room for four to move around without colliding with each other. The restaurant at the hotel offers limited dishes, but these were very tasty. The accompanying coconut chutney with dosa is very tasty and so also the chicken gravy. The staff manning the reception were very courteous and fluent in English, unlike the other places that I have visited at Kerala. All in all, the stay here was very comfortable. If ever I have to go to Kottayam, this is the place where I will stay again.

Good for a short stay

Reviewed By TheWanderingHotelier

It’s a good stopover for a good pit stop or a one nighter. There’s no breakfast and the parking is a hard one to crack esp if you arrive or come back after 7/8 pm as the parking is in the basement and the gate to that closes early. Rooms are neat, mattress is saggy but you can manage 1-2 night without getting a back ache. Bathroom is neat with hot water.

Service was very good. Bottled Mineral Water was provided in the room. Though the nearest Restaurant is 100 Feet from the Property, we were given Tea from the Tourist Home itself. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
