Guest Reviews

• Reena (9/5): -
• Olivier (10/5): -
• Deborah (8/5): Lovely quiet old house in a great location - Lovely old house, nice helpful staff who even packed some breakfast for us when we left. Nice and quiet and decent breakfast. Ver steep wooden stairs to go up to the first floor, a little dangerous to come back down without shoes. (You have to leave your shoes downstairs). Very stuffy and hot communal area upstairs. I would still book again, not big problems!
• Anne-Claire (5/5): Passez votre chemin... - Emplacement Accueil froid et maison sombre. Une guest house sans âme, que pour du business... L'écart des prestations entre les chambres Heritage et celles de la partie récente de la maison.
• Aoife (9/5): Peaceful Homestay in the heart of Fort Kochi. - Beautiful colonial property in the centre of Fort Kochi. The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. All the main sites and the beach are within easy walking distance or short TukTuk ride. Asha and the Chiramel team are very happy to help with suggestions of places to visit, providing a map on arrival. The breakfast was a little cold.
• David (10/5): Delightful stay! - Clean, friendly and perfect location to enjoy Fort Cochi. Beautiful old house converted into a comfortable homestay with high ceilings, air conditioning, and a delicious Karala breakfast. We would recommend and if we are ever back in town we would come back to stay again.
• Elena (10/5): Ein wunderschönes Residence im Kolonialstil - Einfach alles. Wir sind ungeplant sehr früh angereist und haben sofort ein Zimmer erhalten. Das kleine Hotel hat einen wunderschönen Stil. Das Zimmer war gross und wunderschön ausgestattet mit einem niedlichen Loggia. Ventilator und Klimaanlage waren vorhanden. Der Vorraum ist auch total schön,mit klassischen Sofas und Schränke. Das ganze Personal war auch super hilfsbereit und extrem nett. Wir würden sofort wieder hin. Es war alles perfekt.
• Charlotte (7/5): - Leuke inrichting Redelijk duur
• Penelope (9/5): Sehr schönes altes Heritage Haus - Lage Top, sehr ruhig und super zentral. Personal nett, die Betten ebenso sehr gut Toll eingerichtet, sehe schönes Haus. Wäscheservice prima Frühstück ganz basic mit Toast, da gibt es in der Umgebung leckere Optionen. Das Bad hat keine Lüftung, daher wird es sofort muffig.
• Katarina (8/5): - Sijainti oli täydellinen ja henkilökunta todella ystävällistä. Huoneet ja sängyt olivat erittäin hyvät. Kauniit huonekalut. Majapaikassa oli hyvä energia!
• Sylvie (10/5): HAVRE DE PAIX - Havre de paix. On est accueilli avec beaucoup de gentillesse. Les chambres sont impeccables et ne manquent de rien. Excellent rapport qualité prix. Je recommande

Il y a même un service de laundry ! Rien.

• Karen (9/5): Great location, a home away from home and a slice of history - This beautiful period property had a great location just a short walk to many of the tourist attractions of Fort Cochin. The room we had was spacious and quiet, overlooking the open courtyard area, with easy access to one of the common room areas. Breakfast was tasty, European and Keralan options, and plenty to start a busy day sightseeing. The owner was was extremely friendly and helpful, including booking our Kathakali tickets for us, and arranging a taxi transfer out to airport. Easy to leave our luggage for the day when we checked out too before our flight. Even if you don't stay in the historic part of the building, definitely take the time to go and explore it, as has a fascinating history. No complaints
• John (10/5): - Excellent. Will definitely stay there again.
• Sharang (10/5): Exceptional - A wonderful experience at a Heritage Home Stay at Fort Kochi.. One of the oldest homestay's in the area and has a heritage section and a modern section. The accessibility to all areas of Fort area is wonderful and you can literally walk everywhere. The hosts are wonderful people and explain to the guests the history of the town. You can also get confirmed tickets of the Kathakali Centre and witness beautiful performances. The food is simple but very well prep and as a homestay should be. Thank you and looking forward to visiting again. Thank you
• Harry (10/5): Perfect stay - can’t fault it. - The staff we lovely. The rooms were spacious and clean. The fans and AC all worked well. The building itself is beautiful and well kept. We had a perfect stay.
• Michael (7/5): Good - We stayed two nights at Chiramel Residency which explains our middle ground ratings. The second night /room deserve top ratings. We had reserved two nights in deluxe double room. The second night upstairs in the heritage part was beautiful and very stylish. The first night, we were downstairs in a non-classy room (compared to upstairs) next to the street (we had the feeling, we were sleeping in the street). The breakfast in the heritage salon was great. We liked our smiling door man who welcomed us - mornings and evenings Thank you for the post-discount for the first night. Room downstairs next to the street / directly at entrance
• Kerstin (9/5): Superb - Wonderful old heritage home, professional and friendly staff/owners. We were made very welcome. We raised an issue with an electrical outlet and a maintenance man was called over within 15 minutes. I would certainly stay here again and recommend Chiramel Residency to my friends. the downstairs rooms are dark and a little noisy. I would opt for an upper room next time.
• Sounak (9/5): Excellent stay. We were really happy. - Towels. Get better quality proper bath towels.
• vassanda (4/5): - Chambre rdc donnant sur la rue pas possibilité d’ouvrir les fenêtres.le Pdj médiocre . À éviter.
• Sofie (10/5): Charmigt familjehotell med bra läge - Ett charmigt homestay med bra läge i Fort Kochi. Det är nära både till strandpromenaden och till shopping-gatan. Rummen är förhållandevis enkelt inredda, men de är tysta, rymliga och rena. Familjen som äger och driver hotellet är mycket trevliga och hjälpsamma. Frukosten är god. Vi valde indisk frukost och den var mycket bra.
• Ian (8/5): - The heritage rooms are beautiful, and very nicely done in timber The location is excellent for all the sights and restaurants in Fort Kochi
• Catherine (8/5): Very convenient and pleasant stay. - A very warm welcome, and able to check in ahead of time which was a real bonus! We booked Kathakali through them which was a great evening! Early checkout and taxi booking was also very helpful! The place itself is very central in Fort Kochi and kept very calm and tidy. The air conditioning is perhaps a bit old and noisy, but the owner was looking into the noise during our stay.
• Arniv (9/5): Perfectly located great place to stay in Fort Kochi - Amazing location in Fort Kochi area. Good homely breakfast, with customization for our baby. Owners & staff are extremely helpful & supportive of all our needs.
• Laszlo (10/5): Nice clean property - Enjoyed my stay very helpful owner, organised a boat trip on a short notice and at a very reasonable price. Nice simple breakfast served at the time it suits you. Very nice historical property overall.
• Randall (10/5): - Beautiful building
• Anuja (10/5): A very memorable experience in Kochin. - The uniqueness of the architecture, caring hosts, convenient location, and delicious breakfast.
• Brian (10/5): Absolutely recommend this hotel. - Beautiful hotel, so relaxing with excellent staff. Location was perfect along a quiet street. Breakfast really hit the mark. Nothing
• Bala (10/5): Exceptional -
• Katherine (8/5): - Wonderful staff. Warm and friendly. Very helpful. Delicious breakfast. And dont forget to try Paragon restaurant as staff recommend. Its very good as is Fusion Bay Seafood about 10 min walk from homestay. Excellent rooms. Very restful stay.
• Jeanne (9/5): Superb - we love the location and the warm welcome nothing
• Ramesh (10/5): Great place to stay, good value for money - We stayed for transit and it was a great stay. The owner and staff showed great hospitality. We travelled with two infants and another kid, and were impressed by the professionalism. .
• Antoine-marie (10/5): Exceptional - The house is beautiful and very well located in the heart of Fort Kochi. (as of October 2024 the pictures are outdated, the walls are now all white, which make the magnificent teak elements stand out better). Rooms are large, comfortable and well furnished with all the modern convinience with the charm of old rich houses. The staff is very helpful and available. Amazing breakfast, the kerala option is simple and tasty homefood, and it was different for the 3 mornings we had breakfast there.
• Ramesh (9/5): Superb -
• David (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. The room was outstanding. The staff were incredibly helpful and supportive. There were a range of breakfast available and nothing was too much trouble. They organised excursions and travel for us and made our stay even more enjoyable.Would stay there again anytime. Nothing.
• Amaykumar (8/5): Very good -
• Cristina (6/5): Good, but a bit overpriced - Great location and the common areas are great to relax and meet other people. The staff were lovely super attentive and helpful with all the requests. The room had a lot smell to humidity which made difficult to sleep. Also the bathroom was very small and as the shower was in the middle, it was wet all the time. Breakfast was simple, no fruit
• Dhawal (8/5): Enjoyable Homestay with in convenient location - Hostess is very gracious and helpful. Structure of this heritage building is well preserved and clean. We enjoyed the breakfast during our stay. We really liked the surrounding as it was peaceful and quite. One can enjoy walk to the nearby places. Location is really good as there are multiple restaurants nearby and all the attractions are nearby walking distance. Only one suggestion would be to replace the existing pillows in our room as they seemed to be old and had a bad smell.
• Mr (9/5): Superb -
• Charles (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rachana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alessandro (7/5): Good - Location was spot on and within walking distance of the centre. The residency itself was a pleasant colonial style, clean rooms, and very comfortable bed. Choice of breakfast was limited.
• Susan (9/5): A hidden gem of a place - The staff were extremely helpful, friendly and discreet. The location is central but quiet. The building is beautiful with many original details. You can choose between a western or Indian breakfast. As a family, we had a lovely three-day stay at Chiramel Residency.
• Rebecca (10/5): Living a bit of history in an old Dutch colonial home in the heart of old Fort Kochi left us wishing we could stay longe - The home is fascinating! We were given the option of a traditional bedroom in the old part of the house or a room in the more modern addition. The traditional rooms are beautiful, with old wooden floors polished to a high gloss, detailed wooden ceilings, and four-poster beds. The modern rooms are smaller but bright and airy. Service was friendly and prompt. Asha is a very gracious host! Nothing.
• Zofia (10/5): The host Mrs Asha was so helpful - accommodating me to check in after 1am when my flight was delayed, and booking a boat - The property is so charming - it’s a gorgeous Dutch building with split stable doors and lots of polished wood everywhere and is beautifully maintained with personal touches such as family photos. nothing - it was the best place I have stayed in during a long time of travelling
• Cecil (8/5): We were made to feel very welcome and the owners were at all times attentive to our needs. . - We opted for the traditional Kerala breakfast, which was both copious and delicious. We would have preferred rooms at the front, in the older more traditional section of the house, but these were unfortunately already booked. There are rather steep steps up to the first and second floors, something to be borne in mind by people with mobility problems. For us it was no problem and we enjoyed the exercise!,
• Alex (9/5): Kind staff very accommodating and comfortable - Charming
• Syed (9/5): Superb -
• Michael (9/5): Super nice residency, close to the city and far away from the noise. - We were very lucky to have found this place last minute, we have booked the "the luxe" room which was very nice and big. the common areas brings you back to the middle of last century, a real treat ! The hostess & staff are very friendly & helpful. The airco works very well, but is a bit noisy at night even on the lowest ventilation. everywhere there are musquitos nets on the windows, and still they're able to slip inside.. the host provides repellent but its not very effective.
• Elsina (10/5): Charming heritage stay - A very charming, family-run homestay in the heart of Fort Kochi. The rooms in this lovely heritage building were spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Asha and her team of friendly staff were exceptionally helpful and kind. We loved our stay here and would love to return again. Highly recommended.
• Luca (9/5): Superb -
• Neha (8/5): Very good -
• Paul (9/5): Superb - Hosts were super helpful Great location Breakfast was delicious Rooms are beautiful We had everything and more from Chiramel, we were very sad to leave. The area is gorgeous for wandering around Perfect for families That we didn't stay longer 😔
• Divya (10/5): Exceptional -
• christine (8/5): - Excellent location in a quiet area Would have been nice to have fruit juice and fruit available for breakfast
• Thomas (10/5): Exceptional - It was very clean and comfortable. It is a lovely house. The staff are friendly and helpful. The coffee is good. Nothing.

• Shivani (8/5): Very good -
• Anil (7/5): piece full stay but there is no Carparking & they are not friendly - ambient Not friendly
• John (7/5): Good -
• Ailish (8/5): We had a wonderful stay in this sophisticated old house with its beautiful furnishing. - Beautiful old property which is well maintained and cared for. Spacious and clean. Excellent location and staff were very professional and kind. The breakfast is not worth having.
• Paul (9/5): All you need for an extended stay in Fort Cochin, traditional and relaxing homestay. - Great location for the historic parts of Cochin. We extended our stay to see more and returned at the end our tour on our way back to the airport, 7 nights in all. Great breakfast selection and lots of it. Wonderful hosts offering local information and bookings for taxi, tuktuk and shows.
• Juliette (10/5): beautiful homestay in the heart of Fort Kochi - Great location close to delicious restaurants and the beach. The owners were also lovely and helped us organise various activities whilst we were in Fort Kochi.
• Shibika (8/5): Homely Beautiful stay - It's such a beautiful and cosy home to spend a weekend. Best thing is the neighborhood and location from sea and all cafes. The staff are so helpful and polite. It was a very happy stay as we spent just one night If you are traveling with senior citizens then can be a problem as rooms and dining space is not on ground floor but on 1st and second floor. And also if you need water or any help it's becomes a task to come down and ask for it as no intercom facility is available. The place does not serve food other than bfast.
• Colin (10/5): Exceptional -

• Mrs (10/5): Exceptional -
• Syed (3/5): Poor -
• Narinder (8/5): Very good -
• Keerti (10/5): Exceptional -

Highly recommend. shower
• Angela (7/5): Great location for restaurants & tourist sights. - clean, tasty breakfast & good location. very price conscious, unlike a hotel, if you want extras; like bottled water, orange juice or extra foods at breakfast, they will charge you!
• Stefan (9/5): Superb - very friendly and helpful staff. rooms are very nice, big and comfortable. Good breakfast. location is very good to explore Fort Cochin.
• Tiffany (9/5): Recommend staying here. - A beautiful house. Room was very clean! nice soap to wash hands with. AC working. water bottle could have been already in the room. liked that i was asked multiple times if i want one. very friendly employees. enough clean towels. bed was a bit too hard for my taste, but that is something personal. nice new street to the hotel. also lit by night. felt very safe. cool shops are close.
• Indradip (9/5): wonderful experience, would definitely be back. The location …….. can’t be better. - location, cleanliness, overall very nice nothing we didn’t like.
• Romain (6/5): - Place is nice and lovely service. Location is very convenient but quite humid, which gave kind of a slight moldy odor to bed clothes. However, the price is very high for the facilities in general. Too bad they didn't offer kerala breakfast (we didn't ask though).
