Old Lighthouse Bristow Hotel

We stayed only a couple of days, but had the feeling as leaving our friends. The hotel is perfectly situated to visit Fort Kochin on one hand and to enjoy quiteness and a beach view on the other. The (indian) food is exeptional and our room was spacious and nice. If we should ever get close to Kochin, we will visit the Old Lighthouse again for sure.

thought my stay was relaxing and beautiful. The spa was great.

Good hotel , enthusiastic staff , specially Anthony at the restaurant . The pool could have done with a little lesser chlorine ( my perspective ) .

Nous sommes arrivés à l'hôtel le vendredi , la piscine était dans un état d'insalubrité déplorable. Le manager nous a affirmé que tout serait règlé le lendemain matin...que des mensonges, tout les jours, le personnel s'affairait à tourner autour de cette piscine en faisant semblent de travailler...mais 5 jours plus tard elle était encore dans le même état. La chambre (villa piscine) est spacieuse ainsi que la salle d'eau. Malheureusement le service de ménage est incompétent. Le petit déjeuner est bon mais servi avec une lenteur pas possible. Il nous a été offert un plat de fruit de mer à la fin de notre séjour pour nous dédommager de notre mésaventure...la encore, les promesses de crabes, de Tiger prawns etc... sont résumés à quelques crevettes, 1 mini poisson et 5,6 rondelles d'encornet...bref. Un très belle hotel, malheureusement très mal géré...ce qui fait de cet établissemement un endroit à éviter.

the location of the hotel is superb just right on the beach. Food is excellent and service is very good. The only disappointment was the air condition was not working and even the pool was not ,maintained. On a hot and humid day you would deifinitely need these 2. so guys pls go when the climate is pleasant.

Fantastiskt läge vid stranden, att sitta och se ut över havet och alla människor på stranden och känna vinden svalka en var oerhört härligt efter en varm dag.Hotellområdet var också fint ,med lite natur och en pool att svalka sig i.Nära till restauranger och sight-seeing och mycket trevlig personel. Mycket bra rum men ej super rent det dög dock. Återvänder gärna, mykcet valuta för pengarna.

Request clean towels, never happened. Food in restaurant distinctly average. Great room, great view though

Did give the hotel highest scores across all areas required.However, we did find the food disappointing- not enough variety at breakfast, and the one evening meal we had there was very bland. Maybe it was our choice which was at fault, but I've never had bland vegetarian food in India before.Also, the view across the sea incorparates industrial buildings very prominently. I wouldn't let this put you off, jut be prepared to look the other way, and eat elsewhere at night.

Great location with beach views and a beautiful building. The friendly staff lack leadership or management so service is good but not great. Could be amazing with a bit more effort!

very helpful and attentive staff. lovely heritage hotel with amazing views of beach and arabian ocean. walking distance to shops and restaurants of fort cochin. short auto ride to jewish neighbourhood and spice markets.
