Forte Kochi

Forte Kochi is a boutique hotel set in the midst of Cochin’s cultural district. On Princess Street, Cochi's most famous shopping lane, Fort Kochi is surrounded by ornate mansions, quaint stores filled with handicrafts and quirky cafes. A restored Jewish mansion blending Portuguese, Dutch and British styles, the hotel’s rooms surround a central swimming pool patio area, making Fort Kochi a quiet retreat following a day’s sightseeing.

There are 27 carefully crafted luxury rooms. Each room is a gorgeous mix of old-world charm and modern luxury amenities. Expect colourfully tinted windows, solid wooden furniture, and large, inviting four poster beds. The rooms are dotted around a bright, yellow courtyard with matching loungers and an inviting pool. The food on offer in the hotel’s 3 dining areas reflects the various cultures that once influenced Fort Kochi including authentic local Kerala flavours, pan Indian, pan European, British favourites, a special range of seafood choices and much more. The hotel’s location, within walking distance of all the main sights, makes it a perfect base to explore this charming seaside town.
