Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in an isolated area, away from the main attractions in Kochi. The rooms are spacious, elegant, and equipped with all the amenities of a 5-star stay, ensuring a clean and up-to-standard experience. The service, while attentive in some aspects like connecting with pantry and housekeeping, lacks knowledge on specialized dishes. Dining offers a diverse and qualitative menu with complimentary brunch options, including freshly baked bread. However, the location being on an artificial industrial island and far from the bustling normal of Cochin might not be everyone's preference.
The hotel's rooms speak volumes with their beautiful design and interior, though a bit old. Large enough to be comfortable, but keeping doors and windows closed due to mosquitoes in Cochin is necessary. The bathroom, while serviceable, had mouldy tiles and a permanently stained, slippery plastic bath.
The hotel provided a cozy and excellent stay, perfect for relaxation away from the bustling city. The location, although on an industrial island, felt safe and serene. The dining experience was diverse and qualitative, offering great value for the money, especially with the surprising inclusion of unlimited hard liquor whiskey for brunch. However, being distanced from major attractions may not suit everyone's preferences.
The hotel offers spacious, clean, and well-furnished rooms with faultless housekeeping, though they are in need of refurbishment. The service is superb, especially in the restaurant, with personalized touches. The location on a quiet Willingdon Island is peaceful but lacks nearby attractions. The dining experience, while tasty, could be improved for the price charged. Overall, a mixed but decent stay.
The hotel offers spacious, clean, and well-furnished rooms, with faultless housekeeping staff being a major positive. However, the rooms seemed slightly damp, and the rugs were dirty. The service goes above and beyond expectations, with very friendly and accommodating staff who are incredibly helpful. Unfortunately, the location is out of the way with limited nearby attractions, although it is quiet. The dining experience is superb with a wide variety of tasty dishes. The facilities are well-equipped, providing all necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.
I was thrilled with my stay at the hotel! The rooms were spacious, clean, and very comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The dining experience exceeded my expectations with a superb spread of dishes. While the location was a bit secluded, the hotel had a relaxing atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle. The facilities were top-notch and added to the overall enjoyment of my stay.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms in a modern style. The service is efficient and friendly, but the location is a bit distant from the city. The dining options are varied and pleasing, with both Indian and European cuisine. Overall, a good value for money stay.
