Old Harbour Hotel

A really friendly small hotel with a family feel, this place made us feel very welcome. The food was excellent and the room comfortable. There are two lovely pet dogs and a cat in the lobby and a tame mongoose in the garden. The location is very good for sightseeing.

What a find. This old family run hotel in Fort Cochin met all our requirements plus more. It was great to step out of a bustling street into the tranquil quiet charm of this old building. We had a lovely comfortable garden room a few steps from main building within the confines of a walled garden. The swimming pool was most welcome in this heat. We had superb food for breakfast and dinner, service excellent. They advised us where else to eat and both other restaurants were top class. The staff, especially Vineetha and Jude, were so helpful and caring they made us feel like family. They made bookings for us to go to the backwaters plus transfers from the hotel and everything worked like clockwork. Highly recommended.

We stayed at this hotel for one night travelling between Mumbai and Alleppey Kerela. The greeting we had at the hotel was excellent everyone was so friendly, we were shown to our room the Palace Suite a great size of room ideal for three of us. the decor of the room and the hotel is continuous with its heritage theme whilst having a dash of modern here and there great touches. The hotel is situated 100 metres from the harbour where you can see the famous fishing nets, and see the fishing market where the fish await sale. ***** the promonade area there are market stalls, and food stalls providing a taste of India both food wise and culturally The hotel as pool although we did not have time to use it . The restaurant is both inside and out, the night we stayed it was all indoor as we had a freek rain storm for 10 mins. The food menu has a great choice for starters and mains and a small dessert selection. Service was excellent very friendly and helpful, the food was excellent. The room was a great, the beds very comfortable even the third bed , tea and coffee in the room as well as water for drinking. The shower was excellent with toiletries available to use on a complimentary basis. The morning breakfast is a choice a continental type or Kerela breakfast , and they are both very good and filling. there re pets in the hotel, Happy and Gavaskar the dogs are great so friendly and valentine the cat just does his own thing Great hotel, it just so unfortunate we only had one night we will definitely return the next time were in kerela for more nights most excellent and enjoyable stay
