Alfred Place

The staff so friendly. Cozy place in such a lively location.

Only issue was the room was next to the reception. There was bad smell from ac and ac water dripping was just next to room window.

We stayed for three nights of a nine week travel around India and other countries. Alfred Place exceeded our expectations as it was very fairly priced, but the value was better in our opinion. Location was good for our time in Cochin, we did some walking around the locale, but mainly used short journey tuk tuks, which were the most reasonably priced we experienced in India for a month. The room was very comfortable, air con very cool on such hot days, only criticism, would have liked a fridge in the room, minor but understand. Staff were super helpful in every way, nothing was too much trouble, room service was an added bonus as was the lovely pool, after a hot day exploring, an absolute delight to spend time in. The area of Fort Cochin is quite walkable, just remember sun screen and a hat. All in we would recomend Alfred place for a stay especially couples, a very nice and relaxing hideaway in a leafy street.

Very good breakfast, very filling. Staff was very welcoming and friendly.

There was nothing to note other than a crow that tried to pick up food when left unattended.

The staff and caretakers are warm, hospitable and kind. They make the place extra comforting and warm after a long day of travel.

The facilities in our room were quite broken down and in need of repair: a broken toilet seat, that kept coming apart, an air conditioner that made a loud whining sound all day and night long, a bathroom where the water faucet and shower came down at a painfully slow dripping pace, and overall bathroom sink had stains and in need of care and oversight.
