Reviews and Ratings
I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious, complete with big toilets and beautiful antique style furniture. Although I was a bit tired, the big balcony provided a lovely spot to relax. However, the dining experience was the biggest letdown, with limited options and a late start time for room service. The location couldn't be better, near all the most interesting attractions of Fort Cochin, with direct views of the sea, dolphins, and fishermen.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The location is superb, right on the seafront overlooking the harbor. The rooms were beautifully decorated and spacious, offering a balcony with a stunning view of the sea where we could even spot dolphins playing. The service was top-notch, with a very professional and welcoming staff. The dining options were decent, although there were limited choices available. Overall, a great value for the money.
My stay at the hotel was truly unforgettable. The rooms were luxurious and very spacious, with a lovely heritage touch, and the clean sheets provided a really soft landing in Cochin. The service was impeccable; the staff were polite, attentive, and humorous, making my experience truly magical. The location, just steps from the Chinese Fishing Nets, was excellent, allowing me to soak in the history of Kerala and Kochi. The dining experience, although tasty overall, had a slight setback with the Masala Dosa. The facilities offered everything I needed and more.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant surprises and minor disappointments. The charming little cottage room provided a lovely and calm oasis, but its location near the road and machinery noise was a downside. The management and staff exceeded my expectations, making my experience truly magical. The hotel's historical significance and ideal location in Fort Kochi were unbeatable.
Staying at this lovely hotel by the beach was a brilliant experience. The rooms are tidy and good, with some having balconies overlooking the beach, offering a fascinating view of the ships coming in and out of port. However, it's advisable to request a fan for rooms that do not have one
