Very high standard throughout. In my experience, the best homestay in India (and I've stayed in quite a few). All the fixtures, fittings and furniture are top quality. My room was reasonably big with a balcony overlooking trees and the bathroom is super clean. The property is only four years old so everything looks fresh and new. Lakshmi has good taste in interior design and her Kerala breakfasts-different each of my five mornings-were delicious. Highly recommended. A 10-15 minute walk to the heart of Fort Kochi . I'll be back!

This is the pearl of kerala. The best place we have ever stayed. Everything is so immaculate down to the last detail. Everything a traveller needs is given and the breakfast is like home cooked and very nice meal. The property manager Susan is extremely helpful and a gem of a person. She even wished us a blessing of safe journey as we checked out and drove away. Even our driver who stayed here said this is the best place he has stayed while doing travels business throughout India. Thank you Mayflower and thank you Susan Mathews.

The rooms are modern with AC and updated fixtures. Support staff was quick to respond to every request and exceptionally client centered. Food at Mosaic was top notch with incredible masala dosas and omelette s for breakfast in addition to many western and Indian options. The gym was quite extensive for any I’ve seen before in Kerala and the pool is absolutely beautiful, as it was so easy to spend hours there. The views from the hotel were gorgeous. Airport taxi service was excellent and while pricey provided a smooth welcome.

Pretty much perfect... Stayed for 4 nights. The location tucked away down a quiet lane right up against the water and next to a busy little canal with clam gatherers and fishermen chugging past. Fascinating. Loads of birdlife. Lots of nice areas to just plonk yourself down and relax with the marvelous view. The staff were attentive and thoughtful. I asked about the clams and bingo they were on the menu. I'm an Indian food lover but the food here was the best I have ever had. Keralan food at its best. Meticulously clean.

Property was very well maintained and impeccably clean. Decor was excellent with lot of wooden elements. Swimming Pool and other activity area was always kept clean. Service was very warm and quick. Mr. Ramesh and all other staff were super efficient and genuinely worked to make the stay comfortable. Sometimes, they went out of the way to make our stay comfortable. Breakfast spread was nice and had good mix of continental, Indian and local (Kerala) options to choose. Generally tasty food but not too spicy.

The hosts, Divya and Dileep, are such gracious generous hospitable relaxed hosts. they are always ready to assist with anything—arranging boat trips, car and tuk-tuk rides, and massages at an Ayurvedic place very close by. They just can’t do enough. They serve great Kerala style breakfasts which you eat communally with the other guests who hail from other parts of India, Europe and US. I didn’t realize till my arrival that they also serve dinner. all the foods are exactly what they prepare for themselves.

This is one of my better hotel stay experiences in Cochin, Kerala State. The staff at Trident Hotel were warm, friendly and welcoming, from check-in till check-out. The property is neat and quiet and has close proximity to the many offices on Wellingdon Island, Port Authority and Indian Navy stations. My special compliments to the Reception desk staff (especially Ms. Mary) as well as the staff at the Travancore Restaurant. (It is worth noting that the meals at the Travancore restaurant were a delight.)

Comfortable rooms. Good crew. Superb continental , Indian & Kerala preparations for Buffet breakfast. Gym was well equipped. The lady at the reception agreed to keep the fresh cream cake which I had bought from Lulu mall refrigerated overnight , since I had to present it the next day to my future daughter in law's family. Though the Manager refused at first , she convinced him and better sense prevailed. I really appreciate her kind gesture. Lulu mall at walking distance is an added attraction.

There was some discrepancy in the type of bed provided, two single beds were provided while we had requested for a queen bed. Don't know if this happened from Booking.com or the hotel's end. The hotel is a very good property. The rooms were large, well maintained and comfortable. Hotel location on MG Road is excellent. Complimentary breakfast had a good amount of Kerala dishes. Had good house food options like a snack bar. Staff were friendly and supportive. Thanks for a comfortable stay.

Jose and his family make this Homestay wonderful. Staying with them has been the highlight of my trip so far. Everyone is on hand to help but I also felt I had space to relax. The Keralan food was delicious and some of the nicest I have had in India so far (and cheap too!). Jose was on hand to help with everything I needed and even invited me to a family celebration. He’s clearly very knowledgeable about the area. I felt very safe and comfortable as a solo traveller. Thank you all so much.

the Hotel is just wonderful. the best hotel experience during our trip in Kerala. the rooms offer everything a tourist is looking for: comfortable bed, clean, balcony with a view of the surrounding and the wildlife around the place, delicious breakfast with homemade ingredients, super comfortable common areas especially the sofas on the roof top. and on top you get the friendliest staff and the owner who just knows, what you want and seek as a tourist. thank you for everything!

The Riverbench is in a beautiful location with stunning views. The rooms are very spacious with huge beds. The balcony offers a great view. The best thing about our stay was the hospitality of our hosts. Sabu and his family made us feel most welcome. Mini’s cooking was amazing, real local Keralan food with much of the ingredients from their gardens. This was our first experience of a homestay in India but based on this we will definitely be doing it again!😍

Pushpak Service Apartment is by far one of the best places I have stayed in Kerala. We got a family Apartment and suite room. Both was big and clean. Lift is being built. Homemade Breakfast was really good with a view of paddy fields. Friendly staff, lady running the place was so helpful. Nearby Chottanikara Devi Temple. One of the staff assist us with the temples booking during his off time. Really thankful. Will definitely go back!

Excellent one night stay after arrival at airport and before continuing our trip in Kerala. New hotel. All facilities new, modern and clean. Hotel staff very welcoming and friendly. And great services including cooked meal on demand at night and fresh breakfast. Place is very quiet. We didn’t hear any noise from planes. We stayed as couple and would strongly recommend to anyone who needs an overnight stay close to the airport.

Kerala Cottage was WONDERFUL! The owner, manager, and all of the staff were very kind and helpful. The breakfast is brought directly to your cottage which was a very peaceful way to start each day! The manager quickly answered any questions that I had about Varkala and helped me to arrange transportation and activities. as a solo female tracer in India for the first time, I felt very safe and well taken care of.

Buffet breakfast was excellent with a variety of food options, including Kerala cuisine, north Indian cuisine and continental options. We at dinner one night at Bait, the beach front restaurant where they served freshly caught and local seafood. Staff throughout the property was very friendly and polite. Everyone we interacted with was great and it would be hard to list a few staff members here.

It was a beautiful property, the best we'd seen in South Kerala. Such a calm and serene place. The host along with the manager were super helpful and hats off to them for maintaining the property so beautifully. Amazing hospitality and the South Indian breakfast was delicious. My number recommendation for anyone who's looking for a calm place walking distance from the beach near varkala.

This was by far the most beautiful accomodation we had during our India trip and it was made even more special by Allwyn and Jency. Not to mention their five sweet dogs. The homemade dinner was among the best keralan food we had and my partner enjoyed the morning yoga session with Allwyn immensely :) If you’re looking for a place that feels both cozy and luxurious - look no further!

Hotel Pankaj is a good hotel. The staff was really kind and helpful. The manager was a really friendly man and gave us a 3 star stay. The location was a good one and was near to guruvayoor temple. I liked the hotel and will suggest this to my friends and family. Our purpose was served and it was a really clean and well maintained hotel in the cultural capital of Kerala.

wonderful staff, food in the restaurant was excellent, the breakfast had a lot of great choices (ideal for vegetarians and vegans) very fresh, healthy dishes. perfect location for the University. For non Indians or even for Indians on holiday the hotel runs excursions and can organize events for groups and individual travelers. Very safe in a nice part of Kerala.
