Nice, Clean budget hotel, very well located. Ample space for parking. Complimentery breakfast provided is traditional and good. Although located within the city still its quite and pleasant. Non AC rooms are in range of 1000/-per night but go for AC room as climate is always hot and humid.

The inner portion of the property is fairly good maintained. Rooms are clean and tidy. Good mattresses. Bath towels needs replacement. Air-con is making noise and a deterrent to sleep. The property is... More

We stayed here on our first night in Kerala and what a great hotel! The hotel was very central and perfect location for a day trip to Fort Cochin. The Staff were friendly and hotel very clean. Excellent starting point for the holidays.

The reception staff - particularly Rajiv and Jins - were extremely helpful. Rajiv,... More
