Detailed Reviews
First of all how the receptionist would put a western guest in a room in front of the main road with all the noises from the street? It does not make any sense. When I requested moving to another room I was told that it was fully booked. Unacceptable! Cleanliness could be better. Despite that staff team is awesome. The place is closer enough for the main areas, restaurantes, ATM, bus stopping from airport is exactly in front of the hotel, same about the Metro station. Good size room with fridge, ketlle and TV.

Had stayed over for one day as part of onward journey. Hotel is close to ernakulam Town Station and in the town opposite lissie metro station. Courteous staff and very clean room.. While booking pls check for ac rooms as the low cost listing on travel sites are for non ac rooms. New hotel very clean and good place for halt with family. Will recommend for stays.. Restaurant is not functioning however good wholesome food very economical is made available in the rooms from nearby restaurants.
Suggested that an in-house restaurant will be good...
Cheers!!!!

We stayed for one night- a planned 3am arrival from the night bus would have been an expensive rickshaw to Fort Kochi. I advised the hotel before the date that we would arrive at 3am the morning after the booking and received an ‘ok’. The bus dropped us at the door, typically late for an Indian bus at 5am and we were told that booking-com rooms automatically cancel if not checked in by midnight. Luckily they still had a room but charged us 200INR than the rare we’d booked at! The room was clean, small with a fan and comfy bed. Bathroom was fine with hot water and decent towels. It was facing east so got hit when the sun rose though- something to consider if booking a fan only room. We paid 1500INR which was a little expensive I felt. The 1300 we were meant to pay would have been better. 10 mins , 80INR to boat dock to Fort Kochi in the morning.

We stumbled upon this little gem online. The reviews were excellent, but, it turns out, they didn't do it justice.
The Kenz is priced like a budget-to-mid-range Indian hotel -- we paid less than $14 U.S. per night -- but it was far nicer than most of the much more costly places we've stayed in South Asia. For one thing, it was absolutely spotless. For another, the service was impeccable and warmly welcoming. The bed was large and very comfortable.
Our room wasn't large, but the clever, modern design gave us plenty of convenient places to stash our things.
Another plus: The lighting! There were multiple choices of recessed lights to switch on or off, depending on your mood -- from low and romantic to bright enough to read tiny print without strain. The bathroom light switched on by electric eye, so there was no fumbling for a switch.
The location worked well for us. It's right across the street from the Lissie metro station. Kochi's metro is still in the growing stage, so you can't yet go everywhere on it, but it's off to a good start. And outside the metro, ample auto-rickshaws are readily available. Not to mention, the intercity Ernakulam north railway station is only a short distance away.
Our room, which I think was #207, was non-airconditioned (you have a choice of AC or Non-AC), but it stayed a comfortable temperature, day and night, in January. The room faced west, but the hot afternoon sun was blocked from our window by the shade cast by the metro station and by the overhead metro tracks, right outside & above our window. (The metro is electric, so train noise is nonexistent.) The ceiling fan also helped keep us comfortable. Traffic noise from the busy street below disappeared at night, and by closing the windows during peak daytime travel hours.
The hotel did not yet have a restaurant when we visited, but there were places to eat close by. We especially liked the Ojeen "Food Court," behind the metro station, for inexpensive, delicious (and safely digestible!) Indian food.
If it isn't already obvious: Yes, we would gladly stay there again!

The rooms are very good and clean. Located right next to the metro station and hardly few meters away from the bus stand. So it is extremely easy to commute around the city. We made our reservation via booking.com and got an excellent deal. Value for money hotel.

Kenz - A hotel with quality service that will suit everyone's pockets. Located very near to Metro Station and Ernakulam Railway station makes travel comfortable. Met two of my friends at the hotel, who are regular visitors from Bangalore and Trivandrum. Both travel to Kochi for thier Business. They too have very good opinion about the facility and staff. Five stars for my last stay at the hotel.

If you are planning to cochin and plan your trip in a budget-friendly way, this is your best place to stay. It is very near Ernakulam town railway station and 1 min walk from Lissie metro station. There are good options nearby as well, mainly "Chai Buddy" which serves tasty breakfast and tea.
