Near perfect boutique hotel
Pros:

Forte Kochi was a near perfect experience, from the exceptional staff to the property layout and amenities. The breakfast is exceptional, and the chef made sure to cater to special requests. Wish we could have stayed longer, but they were fully booked out!

Cons:

Very minor nitpick, which is not in the hotel's control - since it's located on the street, there is some street noise in the rooms. The toilet floors can also get a bit wet after showers since water leaks through under the shower door. But otherwise can't be faulted at all.
