Taj Vivanta is an oasis in Trivandrum. I had amazing service with personal touches from everyone from the manager, front desk, pool attendant, bartender, restaurant service. All top notch! My suite was spacious and well appointed, wifi was reliable, and the pool was an added luxury.

Hotel très confortable, bien situé, au calme. Les prestations sont de tres bon niveaux (confort et taille de la chambre, salle de bain, piscine, petit-déjeuner, climatisation efficace, personnel attentif et aidant), peut-être pas au niveau d'un 5* en france. La porte de la salle de bain ne tenait pas ouverte, ce qui ma gêné.

This was our first stay, and we absolutely loved it! I have nothing but praise for the entire team behind this wonderful experience. A heartfelt thank you to the friendly front desk amigos who gave us such a warm welcome. The hospitality here is truly one of a kind—offered with not just professionalism, but a genuine, smiling human touch. The infinity pool was simply mesmerizing, offering a perfect spot to relax and take in the view. The buffet was carefully crafted to satisfy every appetite, with a wide variety of delicious options. Many thanks again for making our stay so special. We will definitely be staying again!

My stay at Vivanta Thiruvananthapuram was truly exceptional. The staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and professional, making every moment feel special. The food was a delightful experience—rich in flavour, beautifully presented, and reflective of Kerala’s culinary heritage. The rooms were spacious, impeccably clean, and offered a perfect blend of comfort and elegance. From check-in to check-out, everything was seamless and thoughtfully managed. The location in Palayam is ideal, with easy access to key attractions. I highly recommend Vivanta for anyone seeking a luxurious and memorable stay in Thiruvananthapuram.

Front office people are a saving grace. Room is mid. Food has no flavor, just oily junk served at crazy prices. They serve a few options but shockingly nothing has taste (tried over two days bf,lunch and dinner). Avoid if you want to eat good food. Chef was friendly but what use?

On may 26th, we wete supposed to ck in at 3pm, but after a simple request, they accomodated us at 9am with a charge ofcourse. That was awesome. The staff at the front desk, Mr. Nizam ( operations manager ), the restaurant staff, Ajit & Manish went above & beyond their duties to make sure we are doing good & comfy. Vivanta is truly blessed to have these beautiful people as their staff. They need help, please see they get the help. Thank you for a very comfy stay. I have only 1 gripe. Your TV channels & your remote control layouts suck. There are no good movie channels for english speaking people.

Hotel is quite average. Electric systems are outdated. The bathroom door keeps banging against you so you can't stand in front of the sink. There is some voltage problem in Thiruvananthapuram maybe so chargers don't work at night. Overall 3 star hotel at best and room is definitely overcharged. Do not expect 5 star amenities here.

The management seems clueless about customer service… from not even acknowledging a major screw up with transportation from the airport, a rude restaurant manager, service people who came five times over two days to my room to fix the tv, but still didn’t know how, to giving themselves five stars (when at most is a three star hotel)

For a first-time visitor to India, this was a most convenient hotel to stay at. The reception staff were pleasant, helpful and assisted with any enquiries I might have had; and arranged taxis (at cost) to take me to the Chalai Bazaar or transfer to the airport. The room was very clean and serviced daily. The restaurant had a good variety of food on offer for breakfast and dinner. The hotel was in close walking distance to nearby attractions, e.g. Connemara Market, Napier Museum, Zoo, Aquarium, etc.
