Its clean & tidy, located directly on the beach.But its a bit dull, while staying in Varkala and looking around i saw fantastic cliff top private Huts and more tradtional hotels that would have been more fitting in this magical location. Sort of like walking into a McDonolds you could be anywhere in the world. To its credit the breakfast... More

This hotel is in desperate need of a refurb. It looks pretty tatty from the outside as they have covered the entire building with netting to keep the pigeons out but it's so old that it's sagging like old cobwebs and there are loads of holes in it so the birds can still get in. There was even a dead... More

The best part of the hotel is its location. The sea is hardly 50 m from the hotel and can be seen and heard from the rooms. Everything that the hotel staff committed during hotel booking was committed to during our stay. We definitely would want to stay there again!

Excellent location overlooking the local beach which us fascinating to watch local religious life. Easy walking to shops and restaurants and sea for swimming. Pleasant pool and lovely service staff. Good value and absolutely fantastic breakfast (Indian ) and view at breakfast.

Nice room in a hotel in a good location. It's right on the beach, which is some sort of holy beach so there are always holy men on the beach and stuff going on. Has a lovely pool and the a/c is a life saver. Tuk-tuks are outside and it's only a short stroll over an open sewer and up... More

My family - comprising my dad in a wheel chair, my mum, my sister and my dads nurse stayed at HBR for 3 nights. Great things about this hotel - the location. It's right on the beach, and near a taxi/auto stand and quite close to the shops and restaurants yet not close enough for it to be noisy. -... More
