A beautiful and peaceful heritage stay with exceptional hospitality & stunning waterfront views.
Pros:

Brunton Boatyard was one of the highlights of our stay in Kochi. The hotel has a beautiful colonial charm with peaceful waterfront views that make the whole experience feel relaxing and unique. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and full of character, and the restaurant served fantastic food in a lovely setting.

What really stood out was the exceptional customer service. The staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and always willing to help, making us feel genuinely welcomed throughout our stay.

The only thing to be mindful of is the mosquitoes due to the hotel being right on the water, however the hotel is very well prepared and provides everything you may need. Overall, a truly memorable and relaxing stay that we would highly recommend.

Cons:

Mosquitoes :-(

The best option from where to explore Fort Kochi
Pros:

Property and building: So, so well maintained. We loved the character of the building and how the flooring, furniture, art etc all contributed to the old world charm. All while still offering the modern luxuries that make the stay delightful - air-conditioning, coffee machines, bath tubs, bath amenities etc.

Rooms: We had the water-facing suite and an adjoining non-water-facing room. Both rooms were extremely comfortable. The view is absolutely stunning. We loved the snacks placed in our suite. :)

Restaurant: The breakfast has an excellent selection; please ask for and try their 'special breakfast of the day'. We had dinner at the 'Armoury' a couple of times. The food is great and the staff is excellent. From the Chef and the Managers to the servers - all of them take the time to interact with the guests.

Spa: Extensive spa menu to choose from, with detailed explanations. Treatments are excellent and deliver as promised.

Staff: From front office to housekeeping and restaurant to spa - all staff is very well trained. They are knowledgabale, polite, friendly and helpful. They just make the stay more pleasant and memorable.

Cons:

Everything was excellent. No complaints.

Stylish luxury stay at Fort Kochi's waterfront
Pros:

The waterfront location at this hotel was outstanding. The hotel offered a total luxury experience in Kochi. The room was tastefully furnished, the stuff was very helpful and attentive, the hotel recycling police was exemplary and I liked the fact that the Brunton Boatyard Hotel offered a public water refilling station for the general public on the outside of their resort. The waterfront swimming pool was well sanitised and with a perfect water temperature my wife and I really enjoyed our daily swim. Thank you

Cons:

Sometimes during the day the local carferry was a bit noisy but it did not detract from my hotel experience

Kochi at its best
Pros:

Super Hotel
Sehr nettes Personal
Toller Afternoon Tea

Cons:

Die Preise für Taxi / Touren sind im Hotel mehr als doppelt so hoch wie wenn man direkt auf der Straße selber fragt.

Ebenso ist do Fähre sehr laut.
