Brunton Boatyard

Checked in - 25 July 2026 Checked out - 28 July 2026 Visited with my wife. Booked sea facing room. To my surprise the room was very big. It has one big room with attached bathroom and a huge hall with attached toilet and pantry. The sea view was from our hall. There was also a small balcony attached to our bedroom. The property showcase nice heritage vibe. The staff —- very high standards, very professional. It has a common large pool which was very clean and the view from the pool is also sea view. You can see many big to small ships passing by which was again a great experience. The hi tea again was very nice with lot of snacking options. This property showcase a real 5 star standards. The location is very good. We travelled to fort Kochi from Guruvayur by a rental car and our Google map gave us the route which has a 5 mins ferry route to go to this hotel. The waiting time to board the ferry was approx 1 hrs.. please make sure to check the route prior to start. The hospitality and vibe was just awesome. The food was good though veg options are very limited but whatever is available has very high standards. I would definitely recommend this property to my family and friends and would definitely prefer my next stay here.

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.
