Great hotel and courteous staff
Rated 5.0 by Rohit Dhawan . Family Traveller . Dec 20, 2024
Well managed property. The location is 5 mins walk from papanasham beach and on the beach we can walk to south and north cliff as per choice. Hotel food is great and staff will adjust food as per your choice. Friendly and courteous staff. Mr sudeep helped plan local sight seeing and arranged transport and that’s usually the way to go in area so that hotel is responsible for managing vendors.

Bad experience for gateway taj hotel.
Rated 1.0 by manohar Diyali . Family Traveller . Oct 11, 2024
Due to mmt booking, we were given last corner room with smallest bathroom which smell horrible. The towels were torn. When i asked for additional bed they asked additional despite paying for 3 guest. The pool was closed early at 7pm and didn’t open before 8am. Tv was not working and above all. Ac didn’t work whole night, there was no one to respond at reception. Better choose any 2 star hotel in varkala then gateway taj.

Decent stay but need lot of improvement
Rated 3.0 by Arpit Vinaykya . Couple Traveller . Oct 08, 2024
The hotel needs big time renovation. It’s old property with old amenities but still on very expensive as compared to other 4 or 5 star hotels. They have centralized ac system which was not at all working, it felt like a hot burning stove inside the room. Food was good in taste though the breakfast buffet has very less variety. For the price you are paying for one night this was not worthy hotel. Still a good option to stay for families.
