The hotel was ok and close to the airport. They advertise an airport shuttle, but charged me a 1000 bucks for it. It’s cheaper to get a cab and go. They wouldn’t let any guests into the room either. The room was fairly clean and comfortable.

Very clean and close to airport, Rooftop pool was refreshing in the heat. Not all amenities were open and the Vitality bar is apparently men only but this was not advertised or mentioned anywhere. My husband and I were hushed out of the bar with no explanation. A sign would be nice to avoid this!

Stayed half a day in a suite before our flight. Family of 5 so lots of room. Over priced for the star rating. Needs improvements. Bed is comfortable. A few minutes drive to the airport so your paying for that.

Power issues.
We were expected to have a short stay at this hotel (only few hours) as we needed to catch a very early AM flight. Though the quality of the hotel was decent, the hotel kept loosing power and was a serious distraction considering we needed it only for short time.

The foyer, restaurant and public areas were in excellent condition. The restaurant food was superb, even though service was poor. I had to look for the waiter in the next room to get my bill. Room was a disappointment. Even though the hotel has central air conditioning, there is no thermostat in the room to adjust your comfort level. The only thing you can do is to control the speed of the ceiling fan, which turned out to be a very noisy one in my room. The bathroom had all amenities, but was extremely poorly lit. I could barely see myself in the mirror. The toilet had brown surface for much of the inside, apparently due to iron in the flush water. The shower area was well cleaned, but had a lot of residues that doesn't go away in a routine cleaning. The bathroom needed renovation.

Our checkin in experience was bad since door lock was broken & to be shifted to other room after waiting for 15 mins. I had to wait for the lift for more than 5 mins due to maintenance problems. I had to call reception 4 times to confirm airport transfer for next morning.

OK hotel for an overnight airport stay, but it's not as good as the other 5 star hotels we used in India. Service was very slow, and the general condition of the school is satisfactory but not polished.

The check in was smooth and had friendly staff in the reception. The restaurant was decent but would only give 3 stars for the cuisine. They tried to charge me again for my stay and it took me almost an extra half hour to convince them that it was prepaid through hotels.com. Was able to eventually sort things out but it was a waste of time. The hotel is about 15 minutes drive from the airport.

An OK hotel near the Kochi airport.
I was returning to USA from a quick trip to Kerala, India. My flight was departing at early morning 3:30 AM and hence I needed a hotel room to take a shower and take a nap at night before boarding the plane. This hotel is 5 KM away from the airport and hence their room rates are lower than that of the hotels closer to the airport. It served my purpose. The hotel does not have a free airport shuttle. When I requested them to arrange a Taxi for my ride to the airport at 2:00 AM in the morning, they demanded INR (Indian Rupees) 400 for the short 5 KM distance to the airport. On the previous day I paid only INR 490 for an air-conditioned taxi from the Cochin airport to the Cochin University (CUSAT) which is 20 KM away from the airport. I took that taxi ride from airport to CUSAT at early morning 2:30 AM when my flight from USA landed at Kochi. Hence the rate is adjusted for the night-time rates. I told the hotel folks that the INR 400 they are demanding is very exorbitant compared to the rate I paid on the previous day for the taxi. I later took an auto-rickshaw which is available at the main road in front of the hotel, to reach the airport at 2:00 AM. It cost only about INR 75 at night time. The hotel has a restaurant. My friend and I had Chappathi (Indian Bread), Fish Molly, and Beef Roast. I developed stomach-upset after eating the beef-roast. Does not know whether it is spoiled meat or the spice in it. I would recommend this hotel, if they arrange free airport transfers.
