This place was recommended to us, and I do understand why. What a great hospitality! My daughter and I arrived very late at night at this cosy home, was warmly welcomed, given a nice room and was served a very nice meal in the middle of the night. Harry John and his wife serve excellent breakfast, give all the service... More

This was our favorite place we've stayed in India (and this was our 3rd time in the country)! I arrived very ill and Harry got me to the hospital and made me feel totally looked after. The rooms are lovely, the breaky is great but above all the vibe of this place and it's wonderful owners is beautiful. We couldn't... More

Friendly owner, reasonable priced and clean rooms. Although the rooms are not huge but big enough, they have good beds, fan or AC and tv and wifi.

Now there are many guesthouses and homestays who call themselves “home away from home”. If there is one who absolutely deserves this title it’s Sithära in Fort Kochi, Kerala. Looking back on it, we didn’t stay long enough. But reason enough to go back there again one day. Why? First of all the owners, Harry-John Bernard and his wife Mercy.... More

I stayed at Sithara for 2 days in February. The room was clean and the place was nice and central. The couple in charge was very cute and accommodating. I liked the experience overall but at the end, I got a bill with extras that I thought were included in the price, like breakfast, water and Internet. Overall, it was... More
