Reviews and Ratings
The hotel transports you to a Colonial-style haven with well-appointed bedrooms and lovely amenities, offering a small balcony that overlooks the lush garden. While the old-fashioned phone adds charm, the setting is tranquil and serene, perfect for relaxation.
I absolutely loved my stay at this charming hotel! The rooms were beautifully appointed in Colonial style, with lovely amenities and a small balcony overlooking the garden, creating a cozy atmosphere. The service was impeccable, making me feel instantly at home with their attention to detail and care. The location, near the waterfront in the old part of Cochin, was simply breathtaking, offering a serene retreat while still being close to everything. The dining experience, accompanied by Indian classical music and homegrown organic fruits, was a delightful culinary journey. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything I needed for a perfect stay.
I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The location was stunning, surrounded by a tranquil garden, and the service from the staff was top-notch making me feel at home instantly. The rooms, although in Colonial style, were cozy and had a small balcony overlooking the beautiful garden. However, the lack of a television was a small drawback that I noticed. The hotel provided great service with car hire, housekeeping, and even an airport shuttle option available. The dining experience, although limited to just coffee or drinks, was enjoyable with the added touch of Indian classical music. Overall, a great value for the money spent.
