+Helpful staff and clean rooms with sea views across the helipad/car park. Near to clifftop restaurants and the beach. Quiet during weekdays. Slightly lacking in atmosphere (restaurant is only open for breakfast - no evening bar/restaurant available, although there are many within a short walk)

“Disappointed - an average but scruffy hotel!”
+Last stayed 6 years ago and it was lovely so re-booked for this latest visit. Good location with friendly and always helpful staff. Very hot during our visit but the air con was very good despite breaking down one evening but fixed quickly. Breakfast was average bordering on poor so we ate out elsewhere for our last few days (cheap and tasty)! But overall our stsy turned out to be average I’m afraid. Like a number of hotels we have stayed in in India, the room is in desperate need of upgrade. The fridge was filthy (but worked), as were the light switches. The wardrobe/cupboards are very old and scruffy. Bed and sheets were clean but the towels and bath mats were some of the worst we have ever seen, one so threadbare it was see through! They were clean but stained and very old. This hotel has the potential to be really good and could charge a lot more per night but as it is, it’s just scruffy budget hotel in desperate need of upgrade (fixtures and fittings) but to be fair, probably fine for most that stay there!

“Excellent”
+A very nice hotel with a pool. There didn’t seem to be a restaurant but that didn’t matter because there’s loads of restaurants in the immediate area down the lanes. Most people there had fairly good English. It is very hot but there was air con and a fan so I slept well.

+The room was not ready when we arrived. It was not clean and the bulbs were flickering. The fridge was not working. There was no sufficient plug points. Bathroom was clean but there was no hot water. Room was big enough and AC was good. Staff were nice and helpful and food was good. There was no lift and had to climb up and down which was not comfortable in a hot weather. Balcony was not clean enough, but the sea view as amazing. Overall not worth the money we spent.

+Clean and affordable place to stay that is well located for exploring Varkala. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Beds were very hard though - just a thin mattress on a plank of wood, also breakfast service was very basic - but there are many great affordable places nearby- so not a major issue- overall a great stay !

“Nice hotel but not 4 star”
+We stayed for 2 nights in March, the hotel is ok but doesn’t quite live up to its description, there was no restaurant or terrace. It is in a good location, only 100m from Varkala cliff with numerous restaurants etc. The staff were very helpful, they just need to update their listing.

“Close to the beach and restaurants”
+Sanctum Spring is in a great location on top of the cliff on the helipad, and is a short walk to Varkala Beach and the main street of restaurants and cafes and shops on the cliff side. However the room itself is in need of an upgrade - the mattresses were very hard, the bathroom had cracked tiles on the wall, and generally looked very dated. The bathroom is more like a traditional wet room as well and after a shower the whole bathroom will be wet for a while making it inconvenient if you are sharing a room with anyone else. Also had a bad experience with the manager who didn’t check my boooing details properly but was quickly sorted and never saw him or dealt with him again. Luckily the other staff member on reception was friendly and accommodating.
