Grand Hotel

We had a splendid stay at this hotel located right on MG Road, Kochi. Being one of the oldest hotels in the area, it carries a classic charm and offers excellent accessibility, just about 300 meters from the nearest metro station. The lobby is spacious and welcoming, with a bakery near the entrance that serves some delightful items worth trying. Our room was large and comfortable, with two queen beds that easily accommodated two adults and two children under 10. They also offer king-size beds for those who prefer it. During our stay, we faced an issue with the A/C, but the staff promptly resolved it, which speaks highly of their service and responsiveness. The complimentary breakfast was quite good, with a mix of options like eggs, cakes, and idiyappam. Overall, it was a pleasant and comfortable experience, making it a great choice for families visiting Kochi.

recently visited Grand Hotel for a meal, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the elegant yet welcoming ambiance. The restaurant beautifully reflects the hotel's rich legacy, with a touch of old-world charm blended seamlessly with modern comfort.

The restaurant beautifully reflects the hotel's rich legacy, with a touch of old-world charm blended seamlessly with modern comfort. The highlight, of course, was the food. Every dish we ordered was bursting with flavor, especially the Kerala specialties. The seafood was incredibly fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of authentic taste. Their signature dishes truly live up to the hype, and you can tell that great care goes into the preparation and presentation of each plate. The service was also outstanding—quick, polite, and professional. The staff made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, without being intrusive. While the prices are on the higher side, it’s important to note that you’re paying for premium quality and a legacy of excellence. The ingredients, the service, the ambiance—all reflect a commitment to delivering a top-tier experience. If you’re looking to enjoy authentic Kerala cuisine in a refined setting, Grand Hotel is a must-visit. It’s more than just a meal; it’s a culinary experience worth every penny.

It is always a pleasure to stay at the Grand MG Road. Clean rooms and impeccable toilets ( I always look at the toilets first whenever I visit a hotel or home- my theory is that if toilets are clean people are clean. ) I gave a 5 star for the toilets. The food served at the restaurant is typical Kerala food and tasty. They are served with care.

Disappointing Meal and Poor Value on 28/10/2025 ​"Visited the Grande Hotel with my two brothers and was extremely disappointed. We waited a long time for the food, which was overwhelmingly poor. The parottas were excessively large and thick, making it impossible for one person to finish a single serving,the Grilled Kingfish was bland (no salt), and worst of all, we found two hairs in the Squid Salt and Pepper Fry. Beef Ularthiyathu: This was the only dish that seemed acceptable, though not remarkable. The food was highly priced given the extremely poor quality and service. It appears that the current offering does not live up to the old name and reputation of the hotel.

Excellent old school hotel. The rooms are super spacious - especially the executive rooms. The staff are friendly, helpful and prompt. We used room service which was efficient and the breakfast buffet even though limited was sufficient and good. The hotel comes with the restaurant that is legendary for Kerala food. Make sure to turn up early since the wait time can be long. Also do check out Couchin, which is a lounge bar that is also part of the hotel. Finally, the location is great with it being on MG road, close connectivity to metro station and bang in the middle of Ernakulam town.

The stay was awesome, happened to be there by march 2025. Bit late to review. Great place to stay, nothing to complain. Good proximity of location, food was very good, expected some local cuisines but that was a little disappointment else the taste was awesome. Service to be mentioned, each and every staff was courteous and well trained. Good parking space. Great place for families to stay.
