    Very good breakfasts, hospitable and efficient staff.

    My favourite property in Kochi. Stylish and fairly clean place, the rooms are well-appointed. Perfect and absolutely incredible location for Kochi, close enough to the center of the town, the centre of Fort Cochin, and Fort Cochi area's' best' rated restaurants. Also, close to the sea. The breakfasts with many options.

    heritage walk
    discounted dining
    mosquito issue

    The Classic Double Room came with a 10% discount on food, a 20% discount on Ayurmana, and a one-and-a-half hour guided heritage walk, taking place from 7 AM to 8:30 AM.

    Single occupancy in the massage room is a letdown, especially with no couple's option available. Mosquitoes became a nuisance, and the absence of Indian beers on the menu is baffling. Breakfast could use a bit more variety to keep things interesting.

    changing facilities

    The Imperial Superior room impressed me with its spaciousness. Breakfast had an excellent buffet selection, including both European and Indian dishes, which I loved. The guided heritage walk from 7 AM to 8:30 AM offered fascinating insights about the local history. The pool area was designed beautifully, perfect for relaxation. I faced an inconvenience with no proper space to change after checkout, awkward. Despite these hiccups, the overall atmosphere was cute, and I'd happily return again.

    guided heritage walk
    limited spa availability

    The guided heritage walk offered invaluable insights into the local culture and history, making the experience nice.

    The spa facilities were quite disappointing, with only one table available, making it challenging to book an appointment.
