Nihara Resort and Spa Cochin

The staff was very friendly and attentive.The communal games hut was very good and would be great for kids too. The nearby seafood restaurant was really good and nicely set up. Location is also good set away from the city area and yet not too far from it.

Overall maintenance of the property and the surrounding area could be keep more cleaner. The rooms really need some TLC, the bathroom toilets need to be upgraded as it’s not very functional. And other little things like the amenities such as fishing, archery and bikes all need to be upgraded. It’s just little maintenance that need to be looked at to improve the quality of the stay. Buffet should have more options. The pool also looked not so safe to swim as the surrounding area wasn’t maintained properly.

Spacious rooms and cottages.

Most facilities (activities) are not really worthwhile/functional/ maintained.

Great facility, staff, food was very good.

Kochi was the final stop on our three weeks journey through India, and after weeks of exploring, we were craving a couple of lazy days to unwind by the pool and recharge. Nihara Hotel delivered exactly what we needed. The rooms were incredibly spacious, nice pool and the restaurant was the highlight for us. The chef prepared some of the most delicious meals we enjoyed during our entire trip.

The rooms were clean, spacious and inviting to rest. The restaurant was amazing with top notch chef and staff.

We really enjoyed our stay here! It was so pleasant and relaxing. We were traveling as a family (2 adults and kids ages 3 and 7) and stayed in one of the poolside cottages. We loved our stay! They arranged a boat tour for us that left right from the resort and was so delightful! Nihara is in a part of Kochi that is not overly built up, so on the boat tour we saw fisherman really working and didn’t see another tour boat! We really felt like we were getting a view of life on the Kadamakkudy islands. On the resort there was a playground that my daughters really liked. The staff was lovely and helped my girls out when they didn’t know how to use some of the equipment. They were able to do a little fishing and even got to practice a little archery! Breakfast was nice and we enjoyed the food at both restaurants. We really liked the seafood restaurant -it has a great atmosphere. Would highly recommend Nihara!
