Save to favouritesPrintMailThe Old Courtyard HotelThis atmospheric heritage hotel has a cobbled courtyard as its hub, with a fairy-lit mango tree in the centre. It is both elegant and old (over 200 years to be precise), having been built by the Portuguese when Cochin was their window to the spice trade. But there’s more. On summer evenings, you can sit around and soak up violin and flute music or clay pot drum rhythms played by local musicians. And you can enjoy continental-style cooking (a refreshing alternative to curries) under the shaded colonnaded arches any night of the year. Follow the grand wooden staircase to the 8 guest [r:IS028:rooms], varying in size and price but all charmingly decorated and, thanks to a 2010 revamp, fitted out with air conditioning and solar power. Step outside and you have spice shops, Chinese fishing nets, a Dutch palace and India’s oldest church on your doorstep. Ayurvedic treatments are only a short walk away and, although there’s no pool, you can take a dip in the one at the hotel next door for a small fee. The ideal base for history buffs and those looking for historic style, peace and Keralan culture amidst the bustle of Fort Cochin.
