We had a pleasant stay in Bolgatty Island Resort in May 2012. Surrounded by Marine drive, Kochi Harbour, Fort Kochi and Vallarpadam Container Terminal, the island is still away from the bustling city. The impressive Dutch palace, the lush greenery, the age old trees swaying out into the lake, the prevailing silence, everything makes it a heaven for those who... More

we had an amazing stay at Bolgatty resort. Excellent services, nice room, excellent views, good location, good food, inhouse entertainment like kathakalli dance performances and also boat rides are also arranged by hotel and you board the boat from hotel itself. Easy check-in, nice clean rooms, what more could you ask for.

We travel to Kerala to see family every year and try to visit Cochin at least once. It's a wonderful vibrant buzzing city full of colour and vitality. But to make it even more amazing try staying at the Bolgatty Island Resort which is right in the same spot as Bolgatty Palace. We have stayed here three times - once... More

We booked in to the Bolgatty Palace/Island Resort and were told that they had no rooms available except for a suite. We got there and basically the hotel was empty. The hotel is tired and needs a facelift. It is pretty basic. The gym is lacking a lot of equipment; it's very basic. The grounds are beautiful with lush trees... More

We stayed at this beautiful heritage island resort recently. The location added with the heritage tag makes this a one of its kind property - water, lush greenery and far from the madding crowd. We couldn't get one of the palace suites as there was a was an event the day we checked in and the hotel was fully booked.... More

The resort can be reached via roadways and even waterways. The staff is cordial and services is good and prompt. The restuarant of the resort provides excellent buffet breakfast,lunch and dinner. Alacarta can... More

Traveled here with my family on a recent relaxing holiday to Kerela backwaters. Though Kochi itself can be skipped as a destination, I would recommend travelers to choose a hotel in Fort Kochi area if at all you plan to stay here. Bolagatty Island Resort is a beautiful property but thats it! It's not managed well, food is horrible and... More

We had stayed in this lovely resort earlier and decided to revisit it on our recent trip to Kochi. It was not the peak season yet and we had a quiet time in the sprawling property. The seaview cottages and the peripheral areas were freshly painted – however the property still needed maintenance – especially around the pool area and... More

My stay in this property was very short.. But it was good. Food is good. View of the lake is really good. Along with nature beauty you will get taste ofroyal and modern structure. Away from city noise.
