Tribute Royale

A hotel situated at a convenient location with decent rooms but lacks on the service. Room service - zero points F&B service at the restaurant - zero points. Rooftop swimming pool - zero points. The staff agreed to clean the pool by morning but he did not do his duty. We were surprised to see an unclean pool with leaves, fungi and shower caps floating. Truly a disgusting thing to see in the morning. Adding to this disaster was the scene for the buffet breakfast at the restaurant. Cold food and a spread that would bring only negative comments. My suggestion to the hotel's management would be to stop the breakfast service if they do not have the capacity or experience to do this. At this point of time, it is neither a business hotel nor a boutique hotel. Book this hotel only for the rooms. Do not expect anything else!

It’s a decent 3 star hotel. The location is good to stay. The forum mall is just a few mins walk away. Areas of improvement: the towels and sheets were old and torn which can be replaced. The breakfast spread wasn’t as expected very few options to choose from and the last day of our stay we found worm in the food which was really bad and unhygienic

Recently we conducted our wedding reception in Tribute Royale and they provided more than 10 rooms for the guests. I must say that the reception, food, ambience, stay and so on were great and brilliant. I am happy to say that the service given by the whole staff from Tribute Royale is outstanding, generous, flexible and very professional. The food served for the reception was incredibly delicious. The whole ambience is exemplary. I recommend Tribute Royale for any events and stay without any doubt.

I went for a lunch yesterday hoping to have the vegetarian buffet there at the restaurant. I was told that it is Biryani Festival going on so no buffet. I ordered a Chettinad Mushroom Biryani, which was rather ceremoniously brought to me in a pot with the waiter claiming it to be a handi biryani, with the top sealed with dough that generally gets cooked into a roti during the cooking process. The biryani rice was not hot inside, but the mushrooms undercooked and overly spiced were hot. Which means the mushrooms were hurriedly sauteed on a tawa and added to the cooked rice and then the cover up job with the dough was done and the pot was heated a bit. I was too hungry and did eat it. But the spice ruined my Stomach and started giving me a burning sensation even though I am quite used to spicy food. I have had a similar experience some time back when I ordered Lasagna. They was some fake cheese added to it with absolutely no spices. I asked for oregano and they didn't have!!! Stick to their traditional stuff. The veg buffet didn't let me down. The service is good. But the biryani, I once ordered mutton biryani when with my wife. It was not good at all, and the pieces were just bones. I am an international travel and food writer based in Mumbai. I come to this restaurant when in Kochi. Don't take the customer for granted. It is not a monopoly business that you are doing. So, take care, if you want to Sustain. If you give good food, word will spread and you will get a good crowd. Or else.....
