I spent my last night in India at the Malabar House in Fort Kochi and it was quite the treat. I was upgraded to the Garden suite and the room was stunning from the fixtures to the artwork. The staff was friendly, helpful, and efficient. The food was fantastic! The hotel is ideally located just a block or two inland from the harbor and the fishing nets. Gorgeous property.

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.

This is a charming, historic, beautifully renovated property in the centre of the old part of Kochi, within walking distance of great shops, the Chinese fishing nets, and other historic buildings. The restaurant, in a central courtyard, was absolutely fantastic. We found the beds quite hard and uncomfortable. And we had some problems in the bathroom -- the hand-held shower unit pulled out completely from the wall, as did the control for the sink faucet. A bit of a surprise, given this is a Relais and Chateaux property. The staff was very apologetic, but didn't offer us anything to make up for the inconvenience. A nice hotel for India, but am unsure whether it's truly worthy of Relais and Chateaux status.

I am a business traveller and usually stay at the Kochi Marriot, near Lu Lu Mall, or Taj Gateway; on this trip I decided to try an alternative hotel. I was not disappointed. From the airport pick up, with Wi-Fi in the vehicle and a helpful and informed driver, to the welcoming staff on arrival, the experience was much enjoyed. The hotel is an oasis after a busy day. The staff well trained and attentive. My dinner of Kerala seafood on the first night was delicious and beautifully presented. But be aware that if you want full flavoured, spicy Indian food you may have to ask - the menu caters more for a European palate.
