Few months back we stayed for one night at the Taj Malabar Cochin. The stay was on our last night of our Kerala visit during which we visited Allepey & Kumarakom. The hotel is situated on the tip of the quiet Wellingdon island. The property is small but well planned. This is the hotel where the Indian & English cricket... More

There was nothing particularly bad about this hotel but it just didn't have that WOW factor I am used to experiencing at other Taj hotels in India. It was pleasant but nothing extraordinary. The staff was helpful in planning out my tours and courtesy was definitely was on par with Taj expectations - just thought there would be a little... More

immediately upon arrival to the hotel I decided to go to the already booked, cool place, I really liked the area where it is close to the city center but it is very quiet and peaceful, beautiful place, I got a room on the first floor, with a bathroom which was very nicely decorated and pure price low, I'm pleasantly...

Very good tradition to provide coconut water on arrival. It is just attached to the back water at the back side of the Hotel. Excellent view of back water region. It is away from Ernakulam city. Hence if some one stay from middle class, need a attached taxi. Difficult to get vehicle other than from hotel which is costly. Food... More

Very nice place, the Taj hotels is always a pleasure. The food, service, pool area, gym and spa were exellent. We enjoyed the New years party, and had a very good stay. A sea view room at a descent standard was not too expensive. I recommend this hotel if you are staying in kochi area.

The Taj Malabar is simply one of the best properties at Cochin! It has a very pleasant ambiance and situated right next to the water. The hotel boasts an amazing view and some of the best rooms too. The seafood restaurant is a must try along with the barbecue menu that they serve in the evening. A must visit during... More

A bit far from Koch and the airport, on an island. Beautiful property with a great view of the lake. Don't miss the sunset. Very attentive service, but can be a bit spotty at times. The seafood restaurant is great- try all the delicacies- fish, tiger prawns and of course, all the different payasams (my favorite- the one with jaggery).... More
