Lovely homely armosphere in quiet part of town. Excellent helpful staff. Superb sea food. Only disappointment was the pool which is very small; but the warm hospitality more than compensates!

A conundrum?
It was all good until they told us we had to go to a different hotel. We are still not sure why....explanations unconvincing....

Good luxury option in central Fort Cochin
Amazing suite which you would expect at that price. While the restaurant is in a very nice setting, the food was a bit of a let down given the price.

The best hotel in India (out of 7)
I can't think of a single bad thing I could say about this hotel. They got everything right, down to the last detail. The staff are friendly and seem to genuinely care about their guests and are obviously proud of their hotel. Allen on reception in particular was a star.

Cute place. It's India, so don't expect much. Just be pleasantly surprised if and when it works out. Great art. Mediocre food. Decent room, but bathroom flooding issues, noise from the courtyard, and lots of mosquitos (not really their fault) prob pushes this down a few notches. Surprised this is a Relais property. But it's the price of a Holiday Inn at, like, the Cleveland Airport, so what can you expect? The colonial architecture and interiors were nicely done. Kerala is turning dry, so only beer and wine at the bar. And Fort in Kochi is really only worth your time for a night...it's a bit boring after you see all the standard tourist stuff.
