Top Alappuzha Hotel Reviews
Classic Regency
"Lovely property near the beach in Alleppey. Room was comfortable and well appointed with all amenities including tea/coffee , iron and hair dryer. Nice helpful staff. Lovely breakfast with many options. Uber available for taxi rides."
Upper Deck Houseboat
"We are family of seven from Canada, stayed one night at the Boat House. The bedroom is spacious enough for two adults and two kids to sleep with small luggage. The food is good. (Limited option or very standard boathouse meal). You can buy prawn , crab during the cruise in the close by shops and the chef will cook that for free. We had a great Ayurvethic Massage, which was a very great experience. Had some hiccups for water in the morning and the crew was able to resolve it asap. There are some Nepaliโs guys working in the boat was very helpful and providing us tea, coffee and drinks when ever we asked. If you are looking for great boat house experience for reasonable budget, then this is the place to go."
