Forte Kochi
客人怎么说
The hotel is really beautiful & looks exactly like the photos. It is extremely clean & comfortable, and in an excellent location. The breakfast buffet is very good, with lots of options. The staff were lovely & accomodating (even making us a packed breakfast to go when we checked out early). The free walking tour offered is really interesting & I would thoroughly recommend people get up early to attend. The guide is very knowledgeable & we definitely learnt about the local area.

Literally an Oasis in the great of Ft Kochi. Service and friendliness of the staff was amazing. They were all friendly but especially Matthew, Joe, Arjun, Soni and Allathiya, they helped explain the wonderful items both Indian and western choices on the huge breakfast buffet. Since 95% of the Indian restaurants in the US are north Indian Punjab style, the healthier and more flavorful Kerala food needed some explanation but the seafood choices and variety of cooking styles were outstanding. I got three ayurvedic treatments and they were the best I had in Kerala. That means the cleanest and the 15 year experienced therapist. The refurbished mansion was delightful. The manager Joseph helped me navigate a delicate situation with a tuk-tuk driver in front of the hotel 🙏. Hint: best to use Uber

This beautifully restored mansion is lovely, rooms are huge and bed was very comfortable. (My Only complaint is that the pillows were huge, lumpy and hard! Surprising for such a beautiful and upscale place…!?) The staff were all very friendly, welcoming and helpful, couldn’t be better…:). And the food was mostly delicious; I loved the salad Nisoise, garlic pasta with vegetables, and the veggie samosas…. The breads/pastries in the breakfast bar were notably stale/cold, but then, India is not the place for breads anyway other than naan/roti etc!

We loved the history of the building which has been very thoughtfully and stylishly renovated. The rooms were delightfully furnished (beautiful carved furniture, pretty tiles, gorgeous fabrics etc.) and spotlessly clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful and really looked after us. Particularly when our flight was cancelled and we had to book an extra night - which meant moving to another, much larger and even more exquisite room on the upper floor. The restaurant was excellent and we also really enjoyed the complimentary afternoon tea served in the beautiful courtyard by the pool every day. And the morning sightseeing walk included in our stay was wonderful - the guide was excellent and it really enhanced our stay. We loved Forte Kochi and had a very happy few days here.

The hotel has a historic heritage that makes a stay here a truly unique experience. The team shows care to the guests, from the online guest reservation team who suggested an extra night reservation to guarantee early check in to Chacko at front desk who finished our check in process in our room as we are very tired from our overnight journey. Ashak was very attentive to our F&B orders in the lounge and chef always check in on our level of satisfaction with our food. The hotel has two storeys and no lift, but it has a two man butler team to transport the luggages. We were here for a short two day stay but it really felt like home. They arranged our airport transport and were attuned to which guests had what tour arranged and would alert us when our guides came. The location is perfect with many shops nearby and also local eats (But keep one meal at the hotel for the traditional Kerala dance show). Would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to experience Kochin. The aryuvedic massage was a highlight for a senior traveling with us as her legs were so tired from waking and the masseuse would schedule follow up appointments. All in all, it made our holiday experience so heart warming.

Forte Kochi was one of the most comfortable and inviting place we have ever stayed. The rooms were perfectly sized for a couple, the beds comfortable and the aircon refreshing after a hot day. The buffet breakfast every morning had variety, with delicious local and Indian food. We also loved the afternoon tea by the pool - chai every day! But, the absolute best thing about this hotel is the staff. Every staff member is kind, thoughtful and considerate - we felt so taken care of and there was never anything too much for them to do, especially when we needed help. It really made our stay. Location wise, this is the perfect spot to stay to access all of Fort Kochi’s restaurants and cafes. Within walking distance to great places to have local Keralan food and great coffee. Mary’s was one of our favourite places to eat! Getting an auto is also easy from out the front. Niyas was our auto driver for our entire trip, and he has an amazing knowledge of his home town, he showed us around and took us to all the major sites Fort Kochi has to offer.

Though we arrived late evening, the hotel is charming, warm and welcoming. We went for an extended weekend to see a bit of Fort Kochi and to relax and this was the perfect place to do it. The staff are excellent - a fine balance of professional and personal touch and they go the extra mile. I think in today's context, Forte Kochi staff have been trained and reflect the excellent Indian hospitality ethos that many hotels aspire to but fall short. Located right in the centre of Fort Kochi, the hotel makes for easy access to walk around. The hotel itself is delightfully bright in decor and makes for a picture postcard view both during the day and night. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and the amenities are generous and of good quality. Housekeeping was attentive and ensured that all our needs were met. The restaurant offers a delectable mix of options, all tasting excellent. The breakfast buffet and a complimentary high tea spread only makes you eat more!! Every member of the team was super helpful and efficient and while we deeply appreciate their support in making our weekend a memorable one, special thanks to Shalu, Aaron, Fasna, Sony, Alathiya, Arjun, Jibin and Aakash for going above and beyond.

Exceptional hotel! From remarkable design to very helpful staff this is the place to stay near Fort Cochin. Apart from general amenities they have really good restaurant and spa facilities on site and can help you with any kind of activities. A bit far from Ernakulam if you want to do shopping but easily reachable with ferries. I will definitely stay there again if ever come to Cochin.

We stayed 2 nights at the Forte Kochi hotel in Kerala and was thoroughly impressed. Despite being a 200-year-old heritage hotel, it was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. The attention to cleanliness was evident in every corner, from the beautifully restored rooms to the charming common areas. The staff truly went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Every single person we encountered provided amazing service, always with a warm smile and a genuine willingness to assist. Forte Kochi is a perfect blend of historical charm and modern hospitality, making it an unforgettable experience.
