Novotel Kochi Infopark is a five star hotel in Kakkanad, in the Ernakulam district of Central Kerala. It sits inland, outside Kalamassery. A 4.4 out of 5 guest score from 7,341 reviews suggests most guests leave satisfied. The deciding factor is the shuttle service: this is a working hotel for the Infopark area, not a base for a coastal holiday.

For eating and drinking, the hotel has a cafe, a bar, a restaurant, room service, a pool bar and breakfast, with special diet menus.

Inland Kerala, near Kalamassery
The hotel stands in Kakkanad, outside Kalamassery, in the wider Ernakulam district of Central Kerala. Kalamassery is a town in Ernakulam district, and the hotel is 6.6 km from the centre of Kalamassery. This is an inland setting, with the district's backwaters and city spread rather than any coastline.
Being in Kakkanad puts the hotel in the Infopark corridor, which is why car hire and a shuttle service are on offer. The address suits people whose business is in this part of Ernakulam, with Kochi as the nearest major city and the region's transport links within reach. It is a functional inland location, not a resort strip.
Who should book here
This hotel suits business travellers, Infopark visitors, families needing interconnecting or family rooms, and anyone who wants a full service five star base in inland Ernakulam. The shuttle service and car hire make the location workable if you have appointments around Kakkanad or Kalamassery. It does not suit travellers who want a coastal or backwater setting, or those seeking a quiet retreat. The 4.4 score reflects a busy, well equipped hotel rather than a secluded one.
What to confirm before booking
Before booking, confirm the shuttle service timings and routes, since the hotel is 6.6 km from Kalamassery centre and that gap matters for daily plans. Ask whether breakfast and special diet menus meet your needs, and check that any banquet hall or terrace booking includes the setup you expect. Spa and fitness centre access is worth confirming directly, as is the parking arrangement if you arrive by car. No other distances or times are on file.
