We ate here on our 1st trip to Kochi and thought it looked a lovely place to stay, with it's waterfront jetty dining area and lush green courtyard. So at the end of our month when we returned to Kochi we booked 2 nights. Our first night was spent in a room in the original block (Rs3500 per night) and... More

The Fort House has a lovely setting right on the waterfront of Fort Cochin, with a calm green courtyard at its centre and a jetty running out into the harbour, where meals are served. True, the view has been marred by the international container port just opposite but the busy waterway provides constant interest. The ferry jetty for trips to... More

Arriving on New Year's Eve we slept through the celebrations right outside our door. The staff were friendly and most helpful in guiding us through suitcase and medication replacement. The location is peaceful with a garden separating the two wings of rooms. A very pleasant pier and open covered dining areas made meals enjoyable. We come to eat local foods... More

After a long and stressful journey, stepping into this garden of a hotel is wonderful. The rooms are large and pleasant, and the dining on the pier is delicious. The staff is helpful and accomodating. Rooms would be improved by better screens in the bathrooms (some mosquitoes) and by mosquito netting in the bedrooms but if you crank up the... More

Fort House is simply wonderful. This small, pretty hotel with the pier overlooking the harbour is simply magical. The food is simply the best I have eaten in many months, the staff are very friendly and helpful and warm, the rooms are great and the garden magical and whimsical. Very kid-friendly. Just hanging around the hotel was so nice that... More

We passed this hotel during the day and saw that they had a lovely garden and so we thought it would be nice to have a table by the water for dinner. First thing which was a disappointment is that this restaurant doesn't have an alcohol license - so no beer that we had been gasping for all day. The... More

The hotel is conveniently located and is close to Fort Cochin’s places of interest. The rooms are nicely furnished and clean. The place where you can have your breakfast, lunch or dinner is really beautiful and is directly next to the water/sea. The staff is very kind and helps you if you have any questions. Furthermore the food was delicious... More

We stayed at Fort House in November, finding the rooms clean and comfortable, and the food excellent. Our dinner at the ideally situated waterfront tables was one of the best we had in Kerala. The Fort House is a bargain compared to Brunton Boatyard, its fancier competitor down the block on the water. We stayed at both places during our... More
