Such a lovely homestay! The owner was so nice and always there for us. We stayed here twice and could leave our big luggage for a week as we traveled the mountains in between! There's drinking water available and a little kitchen you can use. Not much gear for cooking, but a cutting board and a fridge so we made fruit salad! Excellent location, close to everything. Thank you so much for having us!

The apartment was really well placed for visiting Fort Cochin, the art and craft area and exploring old Ford Cochin. The hostess Usha was warm and welcoming and honestly ‘made’ my time in Cochin. She also introduced me to other residents to explore Cochin with. Her family made me so welcome, served tea and dosas for breakfast and nothing was too much trouble from booking excursions or advice on a local temple festival which was a once in a lifetime time experience. I thoroughly recommend Tajmahal homestay.

    The most lovely family run this beautiful homestay. Ours hosts could not have been more helpful: they booked a kathakali show for us, organised a taxi to Munnar, helped to change money. The facilities are typical of a home stay but maintained to a very high standard. It is very clean and comfortable. Consistent hot water. Good WiFi. In a safe area. We would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a simple, great value option.

    Mr Roy was a great host. We travelled with 4 kids and all of us felt like our own home. Mr Roy helped us to arrange airport transport and auto (tuk tuk) for nearby movements. He also gave lots of suggestions for tour at Fort Cochin and nearby city. Breakfast was good. I am grateful to choose Leelu Homestay.

    This homestay was a home away from home. I really enjoyed my time here, very calm and relaxing. Lakshmi is such a lovely host, very helpful and friendly, served delicious Keralan breakfast at a time to suit me. The room was very clean and comfortable with everything I needed, hot water, air conditioning and ceiling fan. Also filtered water available for drinking, plus tea and sugar to help yourself. If I return to Fort Kochi I will book again here.
