Ramada Resort Cochin

Everything was excellent except the activity room. Nothing is in good condition. Would be good if they can maintain it since it would be very helpful when coming with kids. It's been 3 consecutive years i am coming here. The activity room needs to be improved.

The rooms were delightful, very spacious, including two sofas, double bed, TV, mini bar and tea coffee facilities, ample room for suitcases, excellent air-conditioning, more space you couldn't ask for. The bathroom had a walk-in shower and was fully equipped with bathroom amenities, towels are changed daily and the cleaning team were very friendly. Breakfast was buffet style with an array of both Western and Indian food, more so Indian food. There were also eggs cooked to order and different fruit and pastries daily. We ate at the restaurant in the evenings (à la carte) and found the food really delicious and the service was great as well. The grounds of the resort are beautiful, nicely landscaped with views onto the backwaters and some local life. The pool was really well maintained and pool towels available daily. Limited sunbeds, but we were there during low season so not an issue. Spa facilities and a bar also available. The bar lacked somewhat atmosphere and variety of drinks and the resort also lacked activities. The resort is quite remote so unless you have tours booked or you are looking for a completely rejuvenating and relaxing holiday there is not much to do in the form of activities especially in the evening. The only couple of improvements I would suggest would be to offer currency exchange which the hotel currently don't offer, and to offer to settle the bill the night before especially if checking out early in the morning. Whilst we were able to do this, it wasn't the common practice.

Nice rooms. Well maintained surroundings, pool, bar and friendly staffs. Check in and check out procedures were quick. The food was tasty. Magician Robin at the restaurant kept us engaged till the food arrived!! It will be a great option for a staycation
