Jasmine Palace

It is better than a budget/average hotel definitely. The swimming pool is nice. The rooms (we stayed in a deluxe AC room) are pretty basic with good AC. The bathroom size was ok but not very good – needs better maintenance; the drain in the shower area was getting chocked; the commode water pipe was leaking; lots of ants in the bathroom. The balcony was pretty big with a table and 2 chairs – but no sea view in this hotel – at the best you can get the swimming pool view. Major issue with the rooms is that there’s no furniture apart from the bed, a basic wardrobe and big refrigerator. At least 1 table and 2/3 chairs or a sofa is required. Do not go for the breakfast option as it’s horrible. You can just walk to the other nearby hotel restaurants for breakfast/lunch/dinner. The Hotel location is very good (comparing with ‘no sea view’ other hotels in the area). It’s just a min walk from the Kovalam beach i.e. on the slope (road) of the beach. The Hotel reception people and Manager are very nice. Sunil (Manager) is a very nice person and the lady too. Madhab, the bell boy doing any kind of odd jobs is also a very nice person. But do not book transportation from them. They arranged airport drop for Rs.800. I didn't take it and got a cab (which picked me from the hotel) from Uber for just Rs.275. Overall, if you are not looking for an expensive sea front (sea view) hotel, then Jasmine Palace is a good option.

Firstly would like to thank Goibibo and Jasmine palace for making our stay very memorable.. We enjoyed every second of our stay.. Booked the rooms seeing the pics on the goibibo website.. Did not have much expectations bcoz the amount paid per room was very minimal.. To our surprise once we reached there.. The rooms were huge in size had AC.. Rooms were also equipped with Refrigerator and TV.. Swimming pool was also big.. Dinner and Breakfast was provided as complimentary.. They had a good spread of dishes.. Management/Service given to us was excellent.. All our requests were heard and obliged.. Location wise is also very good as you have a beach within the proximity of 200 mts.. This place deserves a definite 5 star 🌟

1. we have been informed to checkout at 11:30am however checkout time was 12. 2. Given room at top floor and stated that all rooms are booked. 3. In attached images u can see spider's web. Similary there was an issue of ants and lizards there. (not posting all images). 4. Issue with hot water was there which was comming slowly. 5. Only advantes is that the beach is at walking distance (however other closer options are available...facing beach as well) and hotel has one swiming pool. 6. In one of the room the lamp was broken. Interior is old fashioned or seemed antique to me which i personaly didnt liked.

Hotel Location was very good. Near to Beach. Food was average. Pool facility was very good. Washroom Small Size , Needs Ventilation. Mosquitoes May be a problem. Their is No Activity For Kids Except Pool Area. Not Much Space In Hotel Area. But Beach was very close so all family enjoyed . Room Service was Not Proper. Maximum Dish Repetation. Some times you can be surprised , Upgraded the Room.
