Pros:

立地もいい中で、とても静かでとても素敵なホテルでした。
家具や飾られた物、ひとつひとつがセンス良くアンティーク好きの私にはとても素敵な滞在となりました。
また、スタッフの皆さんがとても親切で、特にジョセフさんの心遣いに感謝です。
またフォートコチをおとづれる際には、また利用したいです。

Beautiful, calming stay.
Pros:

The photos do not do this building, the rooms, or the art justice. It's a beautiful, calm place, with a gracious host.

Cons:

This is only about 350m from the shopping and cafe streets you'll wander, so not far at all. But it was hot and humid, so there are places a bit closer, but I doubt you'd find this value. I caught a few tuk tuks home.

Overall, we had a very pleasant stay. The location was excellent and the team attentive. The quality of amenities in the room was poor and in short supply. Room it self was good. We would reccommend and stay again.

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at The Fort Bungalow. The building itself is absolutely beautiful and full of charm, and everything was spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfortable, free drinking was provided and overall was it a great place to relax.

The host was exceptionally welcoming and helpful and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The location is peaceful, quiet and beautifully situated.

Overall, we absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend The Fort Bungalow to anyone looking for a comfortable place to stay. We would definitely come back!

Pros:

The building is beautiful! Really stunning architecture. The room itself was super clean, spacious and nice and cool for my arrival - appreciated in this humidity. The bed and pillows were comfortable too with crisp white bedding, very nice. What stood out for me though was how friendly and accommodating the host Joseph was - he really helped me out, being a solo female traveller and recommended me lots of nice eating spots close by and a tuk tuk driver for the morning - life safer! Thank you 🙏

Cons:

Nothing - everything was brilliant. 10/10
