We stayed at Brunton Boatyard at the end of a 2 week trip around India back in September 11. The hotel is beautiful and makes you believe its from the colonial days of the Portuguese or British. We had a beautiful, spacious room with a large bathroom complete with bath that looks out over the bay/harbour. The breakfasts were excellent,... More

We loved the view from our third floor room of the pool and the Bay. The restaurant has the option of a basically prix fixe seafood or prix fixe fish meal... More

Brunton boatyard is the best chill out place in kerala.Built in British colonial days , it takes you back to a bygone era of feudalism . You feel you are more sitting in a club than a restaurant .The water front restaurant is awesome in the evenings though for kerala summers its quite inhospitable .Ideal place to treat a VIP... More

As other reviewers have stated, this "young" property is built to make one feel it's got to be atleast 100 years old. The courtyard is lovely. The rooms are sufficient in size, with large bathrooms w/shower and tub both. Enjoyed all meals at the hotel, and very impressed with the experience. The seafood is so fresh you can't believe it!...

It is not as old as you make think. The 'heritage hotel' on the Kochi waterfront lies alongside an old boatyard, but the hotel itself - cleverly crafted in colonial style - dates to the late 1990's. Designed around a central gardened courtyard, the building has a breezy, noble but relaxing feel. Its white cloistered walls are hung with historic... More

Staff are very friendly I must say Food was excellent. The Management should consider hiring a top level Training manager to improve staff english and a for a better dining experience. Indian hospitality is something we swiss people love and keep coming for more. House keeping was clean and decent. Prices can be bit less too.

Highly recommended for a dinner, the terrace seafood restaurant at Brunton Boatyard, overlooking the river, serves excellent grilled shellfish and fish with your choice of sauces. There is a choice of two different three course dinners, with one having a main course of fish and the other one of crayfish and crab. On both, the second course is a prawn... More

The hotel is a delight - the entrance takes you from a busy Cochin street into a haven of calm and tranquility. The huge, ancient and wonderful tree in the central garden gives a feeling of cool shade, the public areas are elegant and spacious and the staff are, as usual with all CGH Earth properties courteous and ever helpful....

Came from the most awful 'luxury' Kerala backwaters cruise with Lakes and Lagoons company, gave me serious upset stomach so glad to arrive somewhere that had a good billing. Tranquil courtyard when you arrive, hotel is colonial style and nice reception staff. We had taken note of Tripadvisor reviews with regard to best rooms and possible noise from the ferries.... More
