Boutique Rural Hotel
The Brunton Boatyard Hotel, a five-star CGH Earth property in Fort Cochin, Kerala, rises from a restored 19th-century Victorian shipyard, offering a timeless immersion in the historic charm of Cochin's storied harbour.
The 26 rooms, 22 of which gaze out over the sea, blend colonial elegance with modern comfort, featuring polished wooden floors, four-poster beds, and spacious en-suite bathrooms with hot-water showers and bespoke toiletries. Many bathrooms share the same captivating sea views, while private balconies invite moments of quiet reflection. Each room is adorned with antiques that echo the region's maritime past, creating an intimate retreat steeped in history.
Dining at Brunton Boatyard is a journey through Cochin's multicultural heritage. The History restaurant weaves flavours from the Malabar Coast's Portuguese, Dutch, and Indian influences, serving dishes like fragrant fish moilee and spiced lamb roasts. The Terrace, set by the water's edge, specializes in grilled seafood fresh from the Arabian Sea, while The Armoury Bar crafts cocktails infused with local spices. On the Quadrangle, an open-air café, offers English tea and delicate pastries under shady trees. The outdoor pool, fringed by tropical gardens, provides a refreshing escape, and the Ayurvedic spa delivers rejuvenating massages rooted in ancient Kerala traditions. A steam room soothes, and guided walking tours through Fort Cochin's historic lanes reveal the area's colonial legacies, from ancient churches to bustling spice markets.
Just a 1-minute walk from the Fort Kochi-Vypeen Ferry Terminal, 15 kilometers from Ernakulam Railway Station, and 42 kilometers from Cochin International Airport, The Brunton Boatyard Hotel places guests at the heart of Kerala's coastal heritage.

Lovely hotel right on the river. The hotel is very well positioned for walking along the river and close to the Jewish area (we had a taxi but an easy walk I would think). We also did the Cultural...
