Top Santa Cruz Basilica Hotel Reviews

Brunton Boatyard - Cgh Earth

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent heritage hotel. Nice views. Great staff. A little bit noisy because of the ferries that pass all the time. Areas of improvement include the restaurant (overpriced for what it is. The food is tasteless because of the quality of ingredients)."

Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay and property. Everything was excellent all around."

Tissa's Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Had a very nice stay overall. Shout out to the front desk staff who were always helpful and the location is good as well. Only issues were the shower (hot water setting gives lukewarm at best) and one housekeeping lady who for some reason didn’t believe me (and went ahead to checked the room twice) when I said there are no tissues in the room and had requested for some. I mean, if someone actually wanted to steal from a hotel room, there are better things than facial tissues 🙃. But other than this, it was a very nice and comfortable stay. For the price, it’s a very recommendable place."

Taj Malabar Resort & Spa, Cochin

10/10 Excellent

"It was great but in an odd location.Room was clean and there was amazing service."

Forte Kochi

10/10 Excellent

"The staff hospitality definitely stands out. The food was great. Over all , a fantastic experience."
