    Reviews Summary

    Powered by Myra.AI

    This property enjoys a prime location near Poovar Beach and boasts outdoor activities like boating, which many guests found enjoyable. The property offers spacious and clean rooms with friendly staff providing prompt service. However, multiple reviews highlight issues with food quality and room maintenance, including slow service and cleanliness concerns. While some guests appreciated the good breakfast, others found the dinner unsatisfactory. Overall, it’s a decent choice for a short getaway, especially for boating enthusiasts.

    Horrible Stay

    ashutosh v.family

    It was horrible experience to stay in this Hotel. I could not get basic necessities. AC cooling was not working, there was no flow of water in taps and food was served complete cold. I could not get fresh water to take bath and tea katthe was having cockroaches. Hygiene and cleannesses was another major problem.

    sachin m.family

    It was nice stay at Leela Backwaters Inn. Location is good. Breakfast is good but dinner was not good as it takes lot of time to prepare food due to limited staff availability. It is fully AC hotel and completed packed from all sides, so stingy smell was there. If you keep room open for some time, mosquitoes will enter inside. Room service was good. We got our room upgraded to suite room. All other room sizes are small.

    Poor Stay

    roshin p.

    The room provided was terrible, broken wardrobe, no tv, no towels, no kettle and no land phone either. After request they provided tv and land phone. Most of the time, no one attended the reception phone. Restaurant food was pretty bad. We tried lunch. Water was stinking in bathroom.

    Terrible Stay

    family with 1 kid

    it was the worst experience we had. The room and corridors were stinking of vomit. They didn't provide kettle which was basic. There was no land phone or TV in the room. It was put later on demand. The water was stinking in bathroom. the chair in the room was damaged. The cupboard was damaged. The bucket in bathroom was broken. Provided only one bath towel. No response or people available at reception most of the time.

    PLEASE DONT STAY HERE

    family

    It was a pathetic experience for my family. I will get tired if try to list down all the negatives hence I will try n be concise. No telecom (when asked the staff said all are taken but all the rooms were unoccupied that time), inexperienced staff (though nice behaviour), pathetic food (asked for prawns masala got it almost after an hour with all the outer shells and all), smelly washrooms, overpriced. Overall I think MMT should consider removing this property from list as it would make someone else’s life miserable and they would also blame MMT to have shown them this property

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at leela backwaters inn and overall, it was a delightful experience. The staff was incredibly welcoming, always ready to assist with a genuine smile. The room was spacious, well-maintained, and boasted a breathtaking view. The hotel's amenities were top-notch, from the inviting pool area to the well-equipped fitness center. The on-site restaurant offered a diverse menu with delicious options, satisfying even the most discerning palate. One standout aspect was the attention to cleanliness and hygiene throughout the hotel, which provided a sense of comfort during these times. The location was convenient, allowing easy access to nearby attractions and transportation. While the price was on the higher side, the overall value for money was justified by the quality of service and facilities provided. I would highly recommend for anyone seeking a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

    One of the most memorable stay at this beautiful property with my family. The view was spectacular from the room. The club services are superb. They made sure that our stay was super comfortable and special thanks to front office staff who made sure that every moment we spent on the property was worth it. He made sure that all our expectations are met and arranged for all our meals the best possible way. The hotel offers wide variety of services and literally you wont need to look any further. Will definitely visit again.
