i think there are duplicate hotel names for Swagath in Trip Advisor. I'm adding reviews to both. i don't understand the reviews here are actually meant for Swagath. we came here for the honeymoon cottage. it was not ready due to air-cond leak. till it is ready for the next day, a deluxe room was given which looked like a...

Again I went to Kovalam for visit friends and find relaxation in ayurvedic treatments. This time I did not want any longer handle with the big "Ayurveda Factories" like Bethsaida, Somatheeram and all the other big resorts, who have just one aim: make profit. I am sorry to say, but the last years since my stay in bethsaida, the sense... More

All the travellers who have business at Secretariat should certainly explore this option. It's not at all expensive even during season (Oct-March). Food is tasty and there are options of south indian, north indian and chinese.

the hotel is located well in the middle of the city. the main attraction of the hotel is the quality food you will get there. the only drawback where food is concerned is that they dont have non-veg. other than that everything sucks. corridors are cramped. room service is not so good. but ya room are pretty descent. i can...

The Pros: Good A/C, near to the beach, hot water (if you feel the need...) The Cons: Everything else. I just stayed in Swagath Resorts last week and it was just awful. I stayed in a row house room, which cost 1800 Rs. (plus 750 Rs. a night add'l for an extra bed for our friend) in what was the... More

Firstly, this no longer a Best Western hotel but that is probably to it's benefit as the local owners seem keen to make it as good as they can. Next, the only downside to us was that, being in peak season, it was full of Thomas Cook package tour customers but that largely defines Kovalam where fish & chips are... More

Dear All We just returned from our Trip to Kerala a Week Before. This hotel was booked by our Tour Operator - Peacock Holidays. First and Foremost the hotel is not anymore linked to Best Western group of hotels. So it is just Called Swagath Holiday Resorts. Secondly this hotel is very neat and has excellent service with great food.... More

We stayed at the Swagath for 2 weeks and were allocated a room in the old block initially. The room was clean but a little jaded - the A/C was noisy and did not work properly. It was situated near to the floor and appeared to be held in place with masking tape, the really strange thing was the way... More
