A Memorable holiday experience to cherish The experience of our stay was memorable, beginning with the welcome at the airport by the chauffeur to take us to Leela hotel Ashtamudi, 85 kilometers from the Trivendrum airport. Our special request to take us to the temple before driving to the hotel was instantly agreed. After the darshan of Lord Padmanabhaswamy, we drove to the hotel. It was late in the night, but the reception was excellent. We were guided by the reception staff to the restaurant for dinner, which was about to close at night. Check-in formalities were done later. The staff are trained to be pleasant in receiving guests at odd times with the same lively enthusiasm. The room was kept ready, and incidentally, it was the birthday; the floral decoration was done with greetings and the welcome message was impressive. The linen used for the bed, pillows, and towels was neat, fresh, and clean. The normal accessories/facilities like drinking water, toiletries, hot kettle, coffee/tea sachets were neatly organised. The staff carrying our baggage, accompanying us to the room, explained the switches and operations of the AC, etc. The breakfast in the restaurant, the next morning, had a live counter and many other options suiting vegetarians and non-vegetarians. More than that, the staff serving us were cordial and readily assisted the guests in getting their items to the table.

Almost life-size elephants on either side of a welcome arch and a spice display in a large boat adorned with paintings and artefacts. A well-accomplished professional flutist is often found entertaining guests in the lobby with his mesmerizing flute. Evening complimentary offerings included a cruise ride in the backwaters, followed by high tea. They also occasionally arrange for professional artists to have a dance program in the lobby in the evening. The hotel staff are very helpful and took good care to arrange for our visits to nearby tourist spots. Jatayu was one such spot we could visit. One has to use a cable car to reach the top of a hill. It is believed to be the center of the earth, a spot where the wings of the mega bird Jatayu were cut by Ravana, when Jatayu tried to rescue Maa Sita when Ravana abducted her. Maa Sita blessed Jatayu to be alive till he meets Shri Rama and Shri Lakshmana. It is also the spot where Lord Rama and Shri Lakshmana could get full information from Jatau. Thus, the three-day sojourn to Lila Asthtamudi - A Raviz Hotel has been a memorable experience where we felt safe, happy, and enjoyed a home-like environment away from home in the midst of well-trained staff. Mr. Manik, the Front Office Manager, was especially cordial and took good c
