ZIBE Salem by GRT Hotels

For a budget hotel, I guess it's okay. But only because it's got the name GRT attached to it, I think we expected more. The room was cute and spacious enough. The bathroom however, was small and smelly. Although they cleaned after we complained, the stench still lingered. We were there only for 1 night.Good points: Location is prime especially if you want to shop for Sarees and the hotel has a GRT jewelery store in the same location.The breakfast was quite good.Check-in and check- out process was hassle free.

We had a wonderful stay with our family at Zibe Salem during both the onward and return journeys of our Kerala trip, and the experience was consistently excellent on both occasions.The rooms were extremely comfortable, clean, and perfect for relaxing after a long drive. We were pleasantly given adjacent rooms during both stays, which made things very convenient and comfortable for our family.One of the biggest highlights of the stay was definitely the food. The buffet breakfast was delicious with very good variety, and every dinner we had at the restaurant was excellent. A special mention for the pasta ’ absolutely delicious! The phulkas were soft and fresh, and the side dishes were equally wonderful. It honestly became one of the most enjoyable dining experiences during our trip.Most importantly, heartfelt thanks to the wonderful restaurant team ’ Mr. Naveen, Mr. Rajesh, and Mr. Santhosh. They always welcomed us with warm smiles and genuine hospitality that added an undefinable happiness to our stay. Their friendliness and care made us feel truly valued and at home.The property is neat, well maintained, and perfectly located for travellers breaking the any long journey (mine was Chennai’Kerala drive). Smooth check-in, courteous staff, excellent food, and comfortable rooms ’ everything came together beautifully.Highly recommended for families and road travellers!

*5 stars without a doubt! Had an excellent stay from check-in to checkout.The staff were warm, professional, and always ready to help. Breakfast was a highlight - fresh, hot, and great variety with South Indian options.Special appreciation for Santosh who served us during breakfast. He remembered our preferences, kept our coffee topped up, and checked on us with a genuine smile. His service really elevated our experience. Would definitely recommend Get Grt Stay and will be back!!!

My stay at Zibe was comfortable and budget-friendly. The room was small but clean, with fresh bedsheets and a well-maintained bathroom. Despite the size, it felt cozy and gave a sense of being well taken care of.What truly stood out was their thoughtful service. We were traveling with our 2-year-old son, who naps in the afternoon. Since I couldn’t step out for tea and snacks, they allowed my husband to bring tea and cookies to the room’something I haven’t experienced elsewhere, as most places require you to either go out or skip it.Overall, it was a pleasant and satisfying stay.

We had a very pleasant stay at the hotel. The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. A special thanks to Saravanan and Manipandi, the receptionists, who welcomed us warmly and assisted us throughout our stay with great professionalism. Their kindness and efficiency made our experience very comfortable.We would also like to appreciate Naveen from the restaurant for his attentive and courteous service. He ensured that we had a wonderful dining experience. Overall, the hospitality provided by the team made our stay truly enjoyable.
