        Must book a room to get more than expectations!”

        Dear Friends; I am a Travel Agent, so definitely I am well-aware of booking a Hotel Room or Air-Tickets with minimum fare or fees and maximum value. Here I booked a Room in The International Hotel for my family spent only 25% more than a Average Hotel and surprisingly I got a positive result. The Hotel really has 5 Star facility in all fields, including Cleanliness, Spacious Rooms, Good-behavior of Staff members with Smiling Face. Location can be called in a center of city and transport service is also very easy from auto, cab or bus. So do not think much more if you are visiting Kochi with family just book a room in this hotel without any hesitation if you really would like to get back the value of your money! And before to close I assure you would surely feel something more, special, different than any other Hotels you have visited till the date in your life!

        average

        verything was good in the international hotel, the only problem was that the WiFi connection never worked during my whole stay.. Other than that the staff was really great, the location was good, complete breakfast, big rooms, I loved my stay in the international, will go back there next time I am in Kerala.

        Good but overpiced”

        The 3-star hotel is centrally located, near M.G. Road with many shops, malls and restaurants nearby. Our room is a suite-room, quite large and the bathroom's as well. Breakfast is included in our room, buffet style with ample selections. However, there are frequent short brownouts in the hotel and we were unfortunate to be at the elevator in one instance! The male receptionist at that time is not so pleasing, even strangely prevented us from taking photo of the receipt. Overall, the hotel is quite overpriced for its worth and there could be other value for money hotels in the area which you could consider.

        Hotel was quiet and peaceful ”

        The hotel was off the main busy street and so queit.

        we had a nice room on 4th floor with a small annex for the sun . the hotel staff was most helpful and there was no problems during our stay in ernakulam. there were plenty of trishaws to take us to the ferry terminal for the trip across the backwaters to fort kochi and mantancheery.

        Well mantained hotel rooms

        We arrived after midnight and we nicely cheked into our rooms without any hassle . I make a habit of calling up the hotel that i will be checking in the day before arrival to ensure bookings are confirmed. We went on the the Fort Kochi Harbour tour run by the Kerala TOurism which was good value - includes mattancheerry, Fort Kochi, Chinese Fishing Nets and the Synagougues and CHurches. Chek out the Briyani in Matancherry .

        Good to stay here for a night”

        We moved here for a night from our fort kochi homestay, to be nearer to lulu mall and the airport. It's a pretty old hotel but the room is huge. But the bed had some small yellow spots and black ink-like stains. The room had a slightly musty smell and was also very cold even though we tried adjusting the temperature. However the staff were friendly and the buffet breakfast was pretty good. There's also a nice local eatery (Frys Village) just a 2min walk away. All in all I'd say this hotel is perfectly adequate for one night but probably not for a longer stay.

        Lovely Hotel with good service & friendly staff”

        Awesome Hotel Experience in Kerala

        The hotel rooms are huge, very clean, flooring are carpeted, bathroom are clean. Worth the money and the price is affordable. Easy access to town, all walking distance if you want to go further auto is always available near the hotels. Nice bar and it is near shopping area like Pothys. Food was not too bad in the hotel. The staff are friendly and for tourr arrangements it can be done with the hotel as they were helpful and the price is affordable. Good stay and i will definitely stay in this hotel if i happen to again.
