A well run (about 8 room) family-run Homestay centrally located in Fort Kochi. The rooms are well laid out with AC and lots of lighting. Drinking water is provided which we appreciated. Joseph and his family live on the property and are helpful gracious hosts.

We loved the Fort Bungalow—it is every bit as beautiful as the pictures show, more so in fact! It is quiet and clean and calm, with practical comforts like great aircon and wifi. We will definitely return. It was the best place we stayed during our whole fortnight’s tour across South India. The host Joseph was incredibly kind, calm and helpful, and the hotel’s tuktuk driver Hussain was also wonderful and does great tours. We will be back to this beautiful and special place as soon as we can! Thank you, everybody at the Fort Bungalow!
Nothing—it was perfect!

Joseph the host was cheerful and offering assistance from the beginning of our communications. The property is authentic and quiet although it is walking distance to most of the attractions.
There is nothing to not like, it is priced for a budget traveller and it is comfortable and the staff are great!

Very friendly staff helpful with bookings of shows or other arrangements and giving advice regarding the Biennale or other activities and attractions. Located in a quiet neighborhood very close to the center of Fort cochin, enabling a good night’s sleep facilitated through fan and/or ac. Wonderful house with nice and very clean rooms equipped with old and pretty furniture, a beautiful green Court, rooftop view and various lounges. Dispenser of fresh drinking water available.
high bed consisting of two separate beds leaving a small crack in between the two.

It's proximity to some beach
There's no food, there's no parking. Rooms are very small. Totally not worth the money. We booked it for 3 days, and checked out after a day and dint get refund also.
Very bad

A great family-run place to stay in Fort Kochi. The owners are very friendly, and we loved the fact that it was close to restaurants, tourist attractions and the beach. Clean, comfortable and nicely decorated rooms. A lovely experience overall.

beautiful, beautiful house with lovely art all around. really comfy room with good air con and a good shower. very quiet, great breakfast and a lovely host.
not really dislikes but things that should be flagged, you need to pay in cash, booking.com suggested the payment would be taken by card before the stay but this is not the case. also, if stairs are an issue for you then this might not be the place for you.

The property is beautiful, felt like I was a guest in someone's ancestral home. I only wish I could spend more time exploring the beautiful artefacts dotting the interior or reading a book sitting in the courtyard.
The host is very warm and friendly, and he was so accommodating of my requests. I also had a lovely breakfast on a round table, sitting across and having the chance to speak to some of the other guests - the experience is so different from being at a cookie-cutter hotel (they all look the same).
