Old Courtyard Hotel

We stayed here twice and loved its location. It has plenty of character and is a good place from which to explore Kochi.

All

N/a The beach was filthy. Pollution everywhere.

Really I liked everything (and I am usually a very critical consumer). The staff were completely kind, efficient, and pleasant. The room was clean and had all amenities - A/C, wifi, coffee/tea, a very nice size, lots of character - even extra blankets/pillows and a hair dryer, two things I always want at hotels. The breakfast was wonderful, with beautiful fresh fruit and juices, terrific omelettes and served in a lovely patio. The pool is small, warm & charming. The location is ideal for tourists - very close to the port, but more easygoing for tourists, close to cafes, shops, art galleries. Especially nice: we had emergency changes due to the Middle East war and the staff went out of their way to accommodate. The cost is totally reasonable & excellent value for money.

It would be nice if the king bed was made up with king-sized sheets covering the space between two smaller beds, but this is really tiny. The wifi was a bit unstable & there were a few power outages but this was a problem of the whole neighborhood, not the hotel - and the staff was able to restore power with a generator quickly. Frankly there are no reservations at all.

The localization is nice . Old building very handsome

Staff or boss are not nice . Entrance door always close by key . You can’t enter or leave easily. Breakfast shame : received message via booking saying no buffet okay fot that . They said continental or Indian breakfast. Then the morinibg they said only Indian ând it was so super spicy we can’t eat. And they come knock tbe door at 8:30 for wake up us ând said breakfast ready ând serve 8:30. How come ? Old building need renovation . We came back late 10pm ând all door and wooden door was close . We need knock door ând ring barely 5min.
