I wish if I had a chance to give more more stars. Amazing location, cleanliness and service. Don’t miss an evening/morning walk in Marine Drive, just behind the property.

I have been using this hotel for more than 10 years visiting two or three times a year. The hotel is undergoing a phased refurbishment. During this stay we had a problem with the room lock which got quickly replaced. The overall standard of service experienced was still maintained at its usual historic level.

The physical condition of the hotel has improved significantly since my last visit. Breakfast buffet is very good, dinner buffet in Bubble cafe could be better for the price

Stay was good. Nice location of hotel , but Hotel is very run down . The Manager at the reception was trying to convince us that the coffee shop is not open due to Covid conditions and they have not got a Chef yet . This was very absurd . We told them to leave Covid behind us and move forward.

Staff and service were always, and continue to be, excellent. The recent renovation of the hotel as part of its up-gradation to Vivanta is very well done.

Vivanta Ernakulam was outdated, the bathroom smelled like urine, there were cracks in the floor, the shower was broken and it was far from a luxury hotel. Every part of the hotel except the lobby required renovation. The breakfast buffet had old, dry stale food and everything was cold. There were also limited options. The surrounding area smelled like sewage so I do not suggest walking by the water. The staff was less than enthusiastic to help and honestly seemed snobby. I would never stay again and cannot believe we paid as much as we did for a hotel like this.

This is a good hotel if you wish to be in the central area of Kochi. The ferry to fort kochi is close at hand and you are smack on marine drive in ernakulam. The hotel gave me a room on the top floor with a harbor view as booked (so I do not think I received a complimentary upgrade). But the room was fine and had a lovely view and was in the section that has been newly renovated. But the swimming pool area had massive construction work that was noisy and made the use of the pool unpleasant. The hotel should have warned me when I booked the room but did not do so. And you cannot open the room windows which means no fresh air. That apart a good hotel, evidently transitioning to Vivanta. Ask for a room on the top two floors.

This place was absolutely disgusting and to think how much we paid for a room. The bathroom smelled like urine, was old, not renovated and the shower was broken. The entire hotel except the lobby needed updates. The breakfast buffet had stale food and limited options. The staff was less than helpful and/or enthusiastic. I would never stay again.

In dining prices are extremely high and I have lodged a complaint with the GM. Post Covid don’t think the property has been maintained properly doesn’t give you the taj experience. Rooms need a complete renovation and it does not give value for the price paid.

the taj group is sailing downhill. The towels are a simple indicator. They are tired and old with no fluff are like those from a cheap swimming pool. I was giving the usual jibe about how I have been upgraded but having been to the hotel for many years room 102 - formally next to the old smoking room is not an upgrade by any means. but no point arguing. the restateurant was excellent and the service there was brilliant.There was a waiter called Gobin who was so helpful. The only reason i did not cancel my current booking this weekend was because of him. Hopefully they will provide me with newer towels not the ones from 1982. The tv and IT guys were excellent. The room service excellent. But the rooms are looking dated with tired repaint jobs everywhere. The shower was awful but hope a better room tomorrow will fix that. However the room was very clean which is very important. Actually this hotel is better than the taj malabar which i staid at earlier this week but it is more to do with the staff. In conclusion for the price which is very reasonable and the location and cleanliness all good. and would recommend. [The Malabar -no]

As a Hotels.com booking I got level 2 and twin beds. I requested higher level and a ki G or queen size bed but was refused. I'm certain I would have got it if I had made a direct booking. The room and the bed were of mediocre standard. The television had burnouts along the margins. The first night was noisy with neighbors singing and baby crying. The extension room that I got was not sound proof.

Great location, fantastic staff always there to help you. Special mention to Prince. Nithin and Chef Salin and his team at the restaurant. Made use of the business centre which was very convenient. Great food despite the low season due to COVID and how it’s hit the tourism industry. Would always recommend
