Inland Kochi, close to the centre
The hotel stands at Chakkaraparambu Junction in Kochi, the headquarters of Ernakulam district and a municipal corporation, in the Central Kerala region. It is 4 km from the centre of Kochi. That places it on the city side of the district rather than out in the backwaters, and it is an inland address.
The 4 km from the centre of Kochi matters for anyone who wants to spend time in the city's commercial and heritage quarters without a long transfer at either end of the day. Ernakulam district covers a wide area, and the hotel sits within the built up part of it. For trips further into Central Kerala, the location works as a base.
Who this property suits
This hotel suits business travellers and conference groups who need a business centre, banquet hall and reliable transport links, and families who want a pool, family rooms and babysitting on site. It also works for couples who want a spa, sauna and hot tub without leaving the building. It does not suit anyone looking for a small, quiet property or a stay in the historic centre, since the atmosphere is that of a large international hotel and the address is inland.
What to confirm before booking
Before booking, confirm with the property which room type and which board basis you are getting, since breakfast and special diet menus are listed but not attached to any particular room. Ask whether pool, spa and fitness centre access is included for your dates. If you need a balcony, a patio or a wheelchair accessible room, request it in advance, as these are finite.
