The Grand Hotel has combined traditional charm with modern convenience. A Four-star hotel situated halfway down M.G Road, the city’s nerve center. The airport is 38 Kms. away, while railway and bus stations are merely a half kilometer away. Shopping malls, business houses, theaters,metro stations and cafes are close by. As the hub of Kerala’s commercial world, Cochin is well connected to all places of interest in the state.

The deluxe room was airy, spacious and clean, at a great price point. Furnished with old fashioned traditional furniture reminiscent of old homes. The bathroom was clean with all amenities available. Central location with shopping and restaurants a stones throw away. The restaurant attached was unbeatable in quality, and a must do on any trip to Cochin. The Karimeen is a must try. Service was efficient and prompt. Parking was easily available and safe. Definitely a hotel to repeat.

Visited Kochi for "Kerala Travel Mart" The hotel was booked by the organizing committee. I must say that the hotel is well maintained being built in 1963. The ambiance of the rooms are totally made of wood, furniture, bed & flooring too. Room sizes are bigger than any hotel rooms. USP of the hotel is their food. I wos told by my industry friends that not to miss the food there its one of the best in Kerala, And yes indeed i had ordered for their specialty seafood " Fish Karemi (Pearl Spot)" hmmm it was mind blowing , the breakfast was also different each day. I stayed for 4 Days had a very good experience. And yes i would like to thank The GM . Mr. James, Chef Rajesh,Front Office Mr. Manu and the Housekeeping team and restaurant team for giving their best services and living up to the expectations and maintaining the standards and quality . Once again thank you very much for all the help and support from the team. I definitely recommend this hotel to my corporate and travel industry friend its a must stay . All the best to the team of Grand Hotel - Kochi Kind regards Sanjiv D'Souza HillSea Holidays…

Food is tasty. Restaurant is large and neat. Number of wash basins are two only and are placed in a small room. If two persons are there in front of basins we have to stand behind the door. The food ordered was supplied after a long wait. Then the supplier disappeared and again came back after another long gap to see whether I am in need of further stuffs. To tender the balance cash he took another long gap.

Visited and many times for lunch and dinner but staying for first time. Booked online, we were two couples so asked for nearby rooms. We were booked standard rooms with complimentary bf. But nearby rooms where not available. So the receptionist upgraded our rooms and allowed nearby rooms with no extra charge. Rooms are excellent, neat and clean. Very well maintained in this covid situation. Forget to take the rooms picture. About the food, breakfast was optional and buffet it was. All good and tasty food.

We had a really stressful experience staying here. Nowadays the most abused word and reason for below par service is Covid. We had booked 2 rooms and one of them got a free upgrade to Executive. We were happy but that was short lived. The room did not have the usual supplies like tea bags and toiletries. We told housekeeping but even after repeated calls, there was nobody who turned up for 2 hours. Finally the receptionist had to come and deliver these items. The key to one of the rooms also stopped working and we had to get a new one. The most annoying thing however, was the AC in the Executive room. Even after setting it to 16 degrees, there was no cooling. The AC technician and housekeeping staff didn't come to the room(you guessed it! due to covid restrictions set by the hotel) and we had to use the fan to get some sleep. In the morning, while having bath the shower head fell off and luckily it didn't hit my head. This was our first stay at the hotel and based on this painful experience, I wouldn't recommend anyone to stay at this place. It is supposed to be a 3 star hotel, but the service is pathetic. The one person who may have helped to an extent is the receptionist Shyam. Without a doubt, I would recommend everyone to avoid this place.…
