“Historic hotel, unusual location and excellent hotel restaurants”

The hotel is in a colonial building formerly used as a boatyard, so it’s located next to the ferry terminal. It is particularly funny floating in the pool and observing ferries and fishing boats pass, and sea birds swooping and eating their fishy prey overhead. The hotel itself is airy, clean and decorated well. The staff are helpful, and there is a fair system for wages and the distribution of tips by the CGH earth management (the company who own this hotel). (They also provide a tap in the outside wall with free drinking water for the public, which is a great initiative.) There are tuk tuk outside, uber is easy, and it’s a short walk to the Chinese fishing nets and other sites of Fort Cochin. The breakfast was amazing, as were the Armoury Grill at night, and the History restaurant. The hotel organises free breakfast yoga, a sunset boatride and afternoon tea at your request

Brunton Boatyard is a charming boutique property overlooking the serene waters of Fort Kochi, with just around 27 rooms, creating an exclusive and peaceful atmosphere. We visited during the monsoon season, and witnessing the rain sweeping across the waterfront and the beautiful lagoon within the property was truly mesmerizing. The beauty of Kerala's monsoon is something special, and Brunton Boatyard offers the perfect setting to experience it. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for their warm hospitality. A special mention to Priya and her team for their exceptional care and attention throughout our stay. They made us feel genuinely welcomed and ensured every moment was memorable. We highly recommend this beautiful property to anyone visiting Fort Kochi.

“Brunton Boatyard: Great way to experience Kochi in the monsoon and its rich tradition of culinary and hospitality”

The location was idyllic with the hum of the busy harbour; watching of boats, ships and trawlers whirr past, makes for great watching, if you prefer that kind of relaxation. The monsoon clouds was a bonus and made for dramatic viewing from our room. The property was calming, and well laid out; loved the ode to the culture of Kerala, and respect to the environment in every way possible. The rooms, especially the second level offer excellent views of Kochi's waterways, with different moods and vibes across the day and night. Light sleepers should avoid ground floor rooms, as far as possible. giving the activity by the ferry service and by the pool etc, especially on weekends. A suggestion, perhaps a wall fan could be placed in the sit out area. Very good rates and value for the location and room size and view, and other perks like breakfast and tea, and the sunset cruise. The food at both restaurants, History and Armoury was fab and helped us discover Kerala cuisine. Compliments to the chefs to keep it authentic. The cleanliness was top notch. Nothing to complain. Not a spec of dust in sight across the massive property The service was helpful; staff were kind, soft-spoken and not overbearing, offering guests privacy and comfort, and yet being at their service when needed.
