Grand Hotel

This hotel seems to be part of our family's memories. My grandparents, and then parents, have stayed here. Now it's me and my children. That's four generations. Excellent location. Spacious rooms with the basics. The premier rooms are huge, with old-world wooden floors and teak furniture. And lots of sunlight. Great restaurant and room service offering scrumptious traditional and contemporary cuisine. Though a tad expensive. Do try their naadan meals for lunch. It makes sense to go early as there's quite a crowd for lunch and dinner. Breakfast buffet lacks lusture compared to their lunch and dinner menus. The location - a stone's throw away from a metro stop - makes it perfect to explore Kochi. There are umpteen restaurants around the Grand Hotel, including a decent cafe named Cocoa Tree. If you fancy an early morning walk, you can join the early morning joggers at Marine Drive or Durbar Hall Ground, both of which are walking distance from The Grand Hotel. A lot of people would call it jaded; faded. But like a lot of old things, The Grand Hotel grows you on. You can't help loving it.

Grand hotel is a four-star hotel situated in the MG road in Ernakulam (Kerala). The location of the hotel is so superb that all important places like Ernakulam junction railway station, shopping malls, leading jewelries, theatre eateries (small & big) metro rail facilities etc are within easily reachable distances. It has a huge complex with ample parking facilities. It also houses a great restaurant on the ground floor serving tasty food. The hotel has range of rooms to suit every one’s need. I had the privilege of staying in this hotel with my spouse recently for four nights (between 19th & 23rd April 24). On entering the lobby, I found a neat large and convenient waiting area. The receptionists were very pleasant and helpful. The room given to me (102) was very spacious with a dining table set apart from a visitor’s sitting arrangement. The room was very neat and clean with good lighting and AC effect. The toilets were very comfortable, neat & clean. The bath area was very convenient with non-slippery tiles for safety. The room was provided with tea/coffee making arrangements. Our room had a very good view of MG road. The toiletries, drinking water etc were supplied adequately. The rooms also had ironing facility and safe vault facility. The room had ample lights. The house keeping & room service personnel were very prompt in their daily service. The restaurant personnel were also very helpful. The food served (both in restaurant & in room service) were of good quality. Though the hotel was commenced in 1963 it is still in very good condition due excellent maintenance. The hotel atmosphere itself is very pleasant. Overall, we were very happy to have stayed here. We had a feeling of staying at home. Our choice was right. We definitely recommend this hotel for a safe, hassle-free family stay. Good teamwork by the hotel personnel.

Great Stay at Grand Hotel Cochin I had a pleasant stay at the Grand Hotel Cochin. The food was delicious, with a variety of options that satisfied our tastes. The hotel is ideally located, close to key facilities, making it convenient for exploring the area. It’s a busy hotel, but the service was efficient, and I felt well taken care of during my time there. Overall, a great choice for a comfortable stay.

I found the staff were very helpful, especially when the hotel started building work at 1am in the morning. The banging noise was terrible. I only needed to ask three times to stop the banging as we were trying to sleep!?

Polite and helpful staff at the front office desk, good place, nice location, good room service
