Taj Malabar Resort & Spa, Cochin

We were a crowd of 8 people. We had lunch, tea, dinner and boat ride in between. Exceptional service. Very friendly, cheerful and ready to help mentality. It was a great experience. Looking forward to more visits.

The Taj Malabar Resort & Spa in Cochin is an excellent place to stay. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, the rooms are beautifully appointed and the food is absolutely amazing. We had a wonderful time at the resort and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious stay in Kerala.

This feels like a highly local boutique hotel. The lobby is reminiscent of the Kerala ancestral home (tharavad) replete with warm wooden pillars and carved wooden ceiling. Some of the rooms offer a great view. The hotel offers all its guests evening tea and snacks at 5pm at Dolphin's Point which overlooks the backwaters followed by a sunset cruise in a wooden 2-tiered boat with running commentary about the surrounding islands and sights...which was one of the highlights of this place for me. This is followed by the traditional lamp lighting ceremony where guests are made to light the lamp individually. Thereafter the hotel offers a peek into the local culture with a dance or music performance by local artists - making it a memorable stay for me....

Good place to stay with scenic view. Staff was extremely courteous and hospitable. We travelled with our toddler. They helped us with our toddler for preparing her meal . The ev charging point was installed but when we checked it was not ready for working. The restaurant view was awesome.
They take the guest for a boat cruise.

Good place to stay

Located at the Northern tip of Willingdon island, this a s beautiful property. The Boat restaurant offers great ambience, overlooking the backwaters. There is an open venue by the waterside which is a scenic place for hosting events. Banquet halls in the ground floor appeared to be small. Service is exceptional!

Amazing. The resort has that charm and beautiful views. The staff was so friendly and helpful Special mention to Angel at the reception , she helped me putting on my saree. She is very polite and helpful. And the valet people at the door the all greet you so nicely with a beautiful g smile

4 star for a 5 star . Rooms are good . Food is only average . Service is excellent . TAJ Malabar requires modernisation of rooms but the present ones are elegant too. When it comes to the food , the enthusiasm vanishes and give way to a wayside hotel food . But the service at reception area or at door or at dinner place is excellent. The ambience is so nice that even after the visit the cool winter breeze go past your face with an emotion of calmness . Deep inside you get relieved of your tensions

The rooms are not worth the price. The facilities are basic and rooms were noisy with conversation and sounds of people working til past 2 AM.

Bed was comfy, wifi good, wooden floor panels are a nice touch, nice amenities, but bathroom felt old and the views of the standard room are non-existent.
