Walton's is a friendly, immaculately clean home stay with en-suite rooms of quiet simplicity around a leafy courtyard in the heart of Fort Cochin and within easy walking distance (two minutes) of a range of restaurants, coffee shops, books shops, and the waterfront decked in Chinese fishing nets. Breakfasts are not elaborate ... just simple fare of fruit in season,... More

I was here for 3 days last December. I felt so much at home that I decided to stay here again. The correspondence prior to arrival was perfect. Mr.Walton is reliable, helpful and efficient. Although the time of arrival at the airport was rather late, the pick up was punctual and check in was smooth. Last time I stayed in... More

We were very happy to accidentally end up in Mr. Walton's wonderful home stay. Our room was spacious, very clean and have private seats on a small balcony overlooking a beautiful walled in garden that was part of the property. Mostly we enjoyed the friendliness of Mr. Walton and his wife, and his great service in providing us with some... More

Insightful, tactful, thoughtful and helpful, Mr. Walton is a great host. His small hotel is clean, well-maintained and in the mix. We stayed 3 days and even enjoyed them despite being under the weather.

We stayed for two nights at Waltons while in Fort Cochin. Mr Walton is super helpful and knowledgable about the area. We had a large room with a very spacious bathroom but the room had a very strong smell of damp that hit you every time you entered the room and started to make us feel nauseous. The rooms are...

We arrived at Walton's homestay without a reservation. We were lucky that there were people checking out at the same time. We were checked in at the garden room which turned out to be one of the best rooms. The room was beautiful with alot of wood and right in front of a quiet garden with a pond and a... More

I can only repeat much of what has been said by earlier complimentary reviewers in that I was made to feel very welcome at Waltons. The breakfasts - overseen by the lovely Mrs. Walton - were plentiful and interesting with an Indian flavour. I love the local fruit so was never disappointed here. Whilst the rooms and facilities were very... More

'The House By The Side Of The Road' was a memorable place to stay, centrally located in the centre of Fort Cochin close to restaurants and cafes yet quiet at night. Mr. Walton, in his book lined, snug office, is a real gentleman. He could not be more charming, caring, efficient and informative whilst Mrs Walton provides a 'just right'... More
