Thank you Joseph for looking after our little party of 3.

Experience a forgotten era at this cozy, cultural gem.

The Old Courtyard Hotel is an historic and tranquil sanctuary with ten antique-appointed rooms in the very heart of old Fort Kochi.

Built 200 years ago, the hotel formerly served as the town house of a wealthy and influential lady trader named Lily Koder throughout the 1900s. A beautifully restored old building in a great location. The room was large and well appointed. The bed was very comfortable and the pool and courtyard were delightful. Didn't have breakfast there but there are lots of places around to eat. The staff were exceptional and very helpful. Would recommend without hesitatiion.

Located just 50 metres from the scenic Alleppey Beach, Raheem Residency features an outdoor swimming pool, a spa and wellness centre and multi-cuisine restaurant offering sea view. Free WiFi is available in public areas. This place has it all. Superb staff and some great characters. Quirky but delightful rooms. The restaurant was amazing with a wide variety of tasty food. Nothing was too much trouble from ordering taxis to keeping the beers coming. Had a great week here and hopefully will be coming back.

Overlooking the serene backwaters, Le Méridien Kochi offers well-appointed guestrooms that have stunning views of the lush greenery. Guests can lounge by the spacious outdoor swimming pool, or take a leisurely stroll along the paths that wind through the beautiful gardens. The staff at Le Meridien understands how to ensure guests have a good experience. They are efficient and always focus on the guest needs from reception, sign-in through to arranging departure transport. Wherever you go, staff and management engage with you to ensure your stay is as good as it can be. In the restaurant, the chef and waiters gave us personal attention to help us with gluten-free food options and went out of their way to provide fresh and off-menu options. In between they took time to chat to us about our travels and explained the food and culture of Kerala. The room staff left us special messages that made us feel at home. Chef Peter kept an eye out for us in the restaurant, he always came over, explained the food options, and even made us special treats. We ended up sharing recipes! Special mention must go to Nandita Kumar as the guest relations officer. Nandita and the front desk staff helped us with so much. From tourism attractions & transport to getting an acclaimed Henna artist to apply her trade in our rooms. She was always looking out for us and went out of her way to come and check on us. She was super helpful showing real interest in our vacation needs. It felt like we had a friend on the staff who was helping us in ways that made us feel like we were the only people in the hotel. All in all we felt very special and we experienced full-on Indian hospitality in line with the saying 'Guest is like God' - Atithi Devo Bhava. All of this comes at very reasonable prices, in a convenient location and great facilities.
