Stayed on 2 separate nights during our tour of Kerala. It is on Willingdon Island and whilst this was a longer drive from airport, we found it quite well placed for visiting Fort Kochi or for travelling on to Allepy. Friendly staff, large comfortable rooms. Bathrooms slightly tired but full bath provided. Buffet dinners offered wide choice and eat as... More

The location is away from the bustle of Kochi/Ernakulam on one hand and the old fort area on the other. However communications are frequent and inexpensive. Auto rickshaw, Taxi and Ferries are available.We find the name "Casino" misleading, this is not a flashy, glitzy "palace", but a quiet, well kept Hotel. The staff is friendly and obliging. If we go... More

I stayed at the casino hotel recently with friends. The place has its own rustic charm and old world feeling but the hotel is in dire need for someserious renovation. The services levels and friendliness of the staff are above average. The sea food restaurant is a great place in terms of food and ambience. The all day dining requires... More

On our tour of India through mid-range hotels, the bathroom in the Casino Hotel was by far the best. Well-lit, large shower with amazing water pressure, and plentiful toilet paper. This earned them some serious points in my book. he room itself was nice as well and the breakfast buffet was great (the fresh juice blending station was a nice... More

Stayed 2 nights and had 2 rooms. Large rooms in a typical nondescript international style. Slightly tired and uninspiring. Everything felt slightly damp (A/C issues ?). Bathrooms were in need of renewing, or a good deep clean. The seafood restaurant is good, but the buffet restaurant is average. Staff are eager to please and friendly. The location is poor being...

Interesting to read the other reviews here. There is NO view of the harbour - only the hospital opposite. From arrival it was bad. The staff were unfriendly and unhelpful. The rooms (we had 2) were ok but felt damp and musty - even the bedding felt damp. We stayed for 3 days. The hotel is in the middle of... More

This is CGH Earth Group's flagship hotelon Willingdon Island. The hotel offers unmatched views of the harbour and has fabulous dining and ayurvedic treatments. The bar offered unique health drinks based on ayurveda and cocktails based on homegrown Kerala liquor. More

Stayed here 2 nights as part of a tour group. Lobby area has simple furniture that seem to invite guests to gather. All employees are happy to work here & this attitude is transferred to the service you get. Again, the rooms are comfortable, large and I loved the wooden floors. The bathroom was also large & had very nice... More

It's been there if I'm not mistaken from the early '70s. Its been done up and is now eco friendly. Rooms are nice and cosy. The buffet dinner is worth Rs. 500 per head. The band dishes out some excellent oldies but if a younger crowd persists they ring out some great Rock numbers. Desserts should never be given a... More
