We had a wonderful and comfortable two-night stay at Forte Kochi. We stayed in their Sovereign Room, the highest category available, and it exceeded our expectations. The room was beautifully furnished, spacious, and offered a lovely view of the pool — a perfect blend of luxury and charm.
The hotel is ideally located right at the entrance of Princess Street, in the heart of the historic Fort Kochi area. This makes it easy to explore the rich cultural heritage, browse through quaint shops in the old market, and return to the refined comfort of the hotel — all within walking distance.
Forte Kochi is a heritage property with historical roots tracing back to a Jewish family, and its architecture reflects that legacy. The property is well maintained, preserving its old-world charm while offering modern comforts.
We thoroughly enjoyed the food — the breakfast buffet had a generous spread, and the customer service was consistently warm and attentive.
Although the hotel offers on-street parking, it was not a concern at all. The staff ensured that our vehicle was secure at all times, and their attentiveness was reassuring.
Kochi Metro, Jew Town, Mattancherry Palace and other historic locations are just a short distance from hotel, making the hotel a convenient base for sightseeing.
Overall, Forte Kochi combines heritage, comfort, and hospitality effortlessly. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kochi.
