We enjoyed our stay of three nights at Walton's very much. It is a quiet oasis within busy surroundings. He even stayed awake to say goodbye when we got a taxi in the middle of the night to get us to the airport, of course the ride was arranged by Walton. When we first got there he introduced us to...

why would you stay any where else. Mr and Mrs Walton know what to do and do it first class. The rooms are spotlessly clean and comfortable. Breakfast around the 2 large tables in the kitchen, meeting interesting people from all over the world starts the day with a party atmosphere. And the breakfast is good and healthy. To top... More

There could hardly be a better location then situated in a little street full of cafes, restaurants and shops and only a few minutes walk from the Chinese fishing nets and the ferries. Everything we needed or wanted was well within range. First impressions can be deceptive - Mr Walton's office is full of books (available to buy or borrow)... More

I stayed in Cochin twice while travelling around Kerala and based on my first stay at Walton's Home Stay decided to return. Centrally located a 3 minute walk from the Chinese fishing nets in Fort Cochin on one of the "main streets" (re: little road lined with tourist amenities: Internet cafes, travel agencies, cafes, gift shops, etc.) it had a...

We loved the quiet, civilized atmosphere and the beautiful rooms at Walton's Home Stay. The central location was fantastically convenient. The breakfasts were delicious, and Mr Walton soon had us organized to make the very most of our time at Fort Cochin. I borrowed a copy of the Lonely Planet from his bookshop and when I asked if I could... More

The other reviewers have said it all and it is true. We should have stayed 4 days and only managed 2 in the end-the loss was ours. The room was the cleanest we have stayed in in India-absolutely spotless including thebathroom and well furnished to suit the style of the building. All rooms have an area with chairs to sit... More
