The Grand Hotel is very clean, well located and the rooms are smartly designed with lovely wooden floors and excellent bathrooms. There is a plasma TV, good selection of channels and comfortable beds. Breakfast is excellent and service at the breakfast room was impeccable. So far so good. Unfortunately, what the hotel gains in interior deco and cleanliness it looses... More

Excellent Location with Excellent Food served at it's most popular (amongst locals) restaurant, first night servcie and staff were very friendly and co-operative but the second night tey were very rude and were not co-operative at all, may be because of the strain they had as restaurant was full by locals More

I stayed there for a week on a business trip. The rooms were large and the bed was comfortable. On the downside, my room was very dark and the bathroom had no shelves to put my cosmetics etc. To adjust the AC, or even turn it off, seemed near impossible, in the end we concluded that the AC-remote in the...

Short 15 minute walk to the Fort Cochin ferry. Don't go for the standard room, as they are tired and grubby, and you will also be tired in the morning as they are situated at the back overlooking the main hotel air conditioning plant. I transferred to a delux room after the first night, no complaints, of good 3 star... More

Grand hotel is one of the oldest hotels in Cochin and loved by locals and tourists alike. The food is excellent. Try the set meals , comes with rice,fish curry,veggies,yoghurt,rasam and dessert. We tried the kingfish fry which was good. The service was bad, we were neglected for most of the meal until I had to call the captain and... More

I was on a holiday with my family and stayed a few nights in the Grand hotel in Cochin/Kochi, Kerela in December 2011. It is a nice 3 star hotel--large comfortable clean guest rooms. Furniture is a little dated. The lobby and the restaurant have been renovated. The hotel has a very convenient location and is on the main M... More

21 of us including a 1 year old baby checked in on 21 - 25th Feb (7 room) we had a great stay, the hotel location is also ideal for shopping as it is at the heart of MG Road. The restaurant is always packed as they offer good authentic Kerala food. My husband practically ate the 'Kerala Fish Curry'... More

However there was smell of dampness and it was not possible to keep windows open, due to noise from the street. I had some problems on arrival – even though it... More

This is a place for all those who want authentic Kerala cuisine and based on my experience no one serves it better than Grand hotel. Situated, conveniently at M G road, the heart Cochin, the place is a real splendor for non-vegetarians. To my vegetarian friends, I do believe this place has a usual goof up like in most Kerala...
