Raheem Residency

“Thumbs 👍 up to The Raheem Residency.”

We will definitely be returning to the Raheem Residency. The building was full of colonial charm and positioned within a stones throw from Alleppy beach. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We made good use of their pool, restaurant and bar.

“Just great!”

We absolutely loved the relaxed feel of this place. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The pool area is just brilliant, a real sun trap. The food was great too. We had a beautiful room. Yes there is a flyover just outside which is such a shame. But it did not detract from a fabulous stay. … more

Great if you want a little escape from the business and having a bar is a huge bonus in this part of the world.

“A Hotel With Good Values”

I did not get to stay at Raheem Residency. I was already in India when I cancelled my reservation. I was diagnosed with bronchitis and decided to cut short my trip. The hotel waived my fees even though the deadline for cancellation has past. Hotels with such values must be pleasant to stay with.

“A little retreat with very helpful staff”

This building is periodic which shows signs of architecture from a traditional region. This is a building with a limited amount of bedrooms which is appealing to those who just want to relax without the feeling of staying of a hotel chain with rowdy holiday makers insisting on party music blaring from speakers which can be heard for miles. The rooms are dated with original features but are very clean and spacious. The bathrooms are clean and tidy and towels refreshed daily. Should you require frankincense smoke spread in your bedroom in the evening to scare off any mosquitoes this will be done in the evening. There is a massage area / service. Female masseuses for ladies and Male masseuse for the men. This is very relaxing but is not for the bashful person since to will be asked to remove all your clothing and required to wear a tie up cover for your nether region. There is easy access to ricksaw service and the guard will signal for one of you require it. The beach is 20 metres across the road. Locals swim there regularly and some tourists prefer another beach 15-20 km away. The food is excellent that’s all I need to say. One other important thing to mention is that alcohol is not available everywhere in Kerala but this hotel offers beer and spirits which means you don’t have to travel anywhere in the darkness of the night seeking for a cold beer. The most special thing here is the staff who will do everything they can to make your stay welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble. They are excellent and will make your stay much more welcoming. My favourite member of staff was Arun who was cheerful and helpful all the time and will always go that extra mile to try and get you anything you need. It is fair to say this residence will not be to everyone’s taste especially if you are used to staying in a 5 star hotel or a top end 4 star hotel but for me it was all about the traditional experience. Due to limited guests allowed this is a very peaceful hotel to stay in.
