But Im sure if I'd asked, they would have given me one! ##### Leanne Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helen 23 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent great value clean rooms. Bathroom in every room ac optional for each room. Owners Gina and George are lovely and super helpful …. Will arrange a driver or local events. ….even took me to the bus stop. Forte Cochi is great for art lovers and central for other Kerala tourist trip as 1 to2 hours to either Munnar tea plantation, Alleppy Backwaters and Athrippally Waterfalls! Fully recommend this great home stay. ##### Helen Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lindsay 3 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fantastic stay, especially as our first stop in India! We stayed for a whole week to have time to catch up on work and still explore, and we couldn’t have picked a better spot. Staying for a whole week meant we also got a full room clean halfway through our stay which was lovely! Friendly and helpful family, laundry service (for a good price), chance to chat with other guests at breakfast, great walkable location. The family helped us organise tours - a backwater boat trip and Kathakali and both were a great price and really special experiences. Also breakfast was a real highlight - we opted for Kerala breakfast and got something different (& delicious and filling!) every day! Can’t recommend enough and would happily stay again. ##### Lindsay Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yishay 16 Dec 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best homestay at the fort Best homestay at the Fort. Good location, good facilities, best staff and owner. Helped us go on a boat trip, and after checkout went with us and the taxi to show us the way to a nearby hotel to pick up a friend to the airport. Loved Kochi, loved Bastian. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/42F78E4DB904422BCCA1D01C4A69695B19E903B11576482667984.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Yishay Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 3 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was amazing.

Really worth for the price and a really good breakfast. I would recommend We went back to Kochi and they were fully booked but they have managed to find us another homestay of very good quality. ##### Miguel Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Well located and nice place to stay.

We arrived very early in the morning after a 24 hour delayed flight and were greeted on the doorstep by the owners. They honestly couldn’t do enough for us. Helped us book train tickets and organise a taxi for our onward journey after staying for three nights. The room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Location convenient for Fort Kochi, town was in walking distance. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Loz, Fort Kochi 30 Aug 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Value for money. This budget homestay was clean, has helpful owners and provided a decent breakfast at very reasonable rates. My bathroom was new with modern fixtures and the rooms looked freshly painted. The owners live in a separate building opposite and are on hand if needed.There was loud music going on the second night of stay, but it cut out at midnight. It is a bit of a walk to the foreshore hub (less than 1km) but at that price who could complain. ##### Loz Stayed 1 night in Aug 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura A 4 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place with great hosts!

It's a little difficult to find at first because the homestay is down two ally's- but it's not impossible- just look out for the sign of the homestay and follow the arrows- it's very easy once u get there :) Homestay itself is lovely/ nice family, cute daughter and the rooms are safe. I even left my luggage in my room for 48 hours whilst I went down south for a bit and when I came back my room was untouched :) I didn't have the breakfast but I can only assume it would be nice :) Highly recommend this homestay ##### Bianca ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 1 Apr 2019 Liked: Staff & service, amenities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 26 Nov 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Hanoi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hanoi-Hotels.d1428.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Pershore](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pershore-Hotels.d6084963.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Ramada Resort by Wyndham Kochi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kochi-Hotels-Ramada-Resort-By-Wyndham-Kochi.h2135120.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Tintagel Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tintagel-Castle-Hotels.0-l6094479-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Unicorn, Gunthorpe by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nottingham-Hotels-Unicorn.h11899604.Hotel-Information) > > [The Abbey Great Malvern](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malvern-Hotels-The-Abbey-Great-Malvern.h24531.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Dortmund](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dortmund-Hotels.d1066.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Crowne Plaza Kochi by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kochi-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Kochi.h5275933.Hotel-Information) > > [Rashleigh Arms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Austell-Hotels-Rashleigh-Arms.h12341020.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tangalle-Hotels-Anantara-Peace-Haven-Tangalle-Resort.h11229814.Hotel-Information) > > [The Furze Bush Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newbury-Hotels-The-Furze-Bush-Inn.h2275985.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sawley Arms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ripon-Hotels-The-Sawley-Arms.h38935153.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kochi-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Kochi-Bolgatty.h20141582.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Chiddingstone Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chiddingstone-Castle-Hotels.0-l6246449-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Le Meridien Kochi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kochi-Hotels-Le-Meridien-Kochi.h583740.Hotel-Information) > > [Alaiye Resort & Spa Hotel - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alanya-Hotels-Alaiye-Resort-Spa-Hotel-All-Inclusive.h2341337.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Waterpark in Gambia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Gambia-Waterpark-Hotel.0-0-d63-twaterparkhotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Holiday Inn Express Warwick - Stratford-upon-Avon by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warwick-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Warwick-Stratford-Upon-Avon.h119997.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Leicester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leicester-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d7583-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [OYO Shanklin Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shanklin-Hotels-OYO-Shanklin-Beach-Hotel.h7539838.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aNCL-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Il Sogno Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Desenzano-Del-Garda-Hotels-Residence-Il-Sogno.h1617435.Hotel-Information) > > [Kochi Marriott Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kochi-Hotels-Kochi-Marriott-Hotel.h9597588.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Hever Castle and Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hever-Castle-And-Gardens-Hotels.0-l6091999-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Harlow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Harlow-Hotels.d4649.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Paris (CDG) to Liverpool (LPL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cdg/lpl/paris-to-liverpool) > > [flights from kilkenny airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/airports/kky/flights-from-kilkenny-airport) ### Activities > [Things to do in Omagh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Omagh.d182723.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Surrey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Surrey.d55040.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Liberia Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liberia.d500188.Holidays-City-Breaks)
