My stay at the Taj Residency Hotel, Cochi was for one week during March 2008. Our hotel was booked with Expedia. The same hotel can be booked directly but i found the cost to be competitive and booked a room with a city view. Upon arrival we were upgraded to a sea view room at no extra cost. This is... more

We stayed two nights at this hotel at the start of a tour of Kerala. It is a strange hotel for a package company to chose as it is in Ernakulam rather than the more touristy Fort Cochin. It is situated on Marine Drive, which is a busy, dirty and noisy main road, but overlooks Cochin harbour. We were lucky... more

We stayed three days in this hotel. Our only complaint was related to our first room which was stated as sea view, but was in fact at the side of the hotel overlooking towards the sea over the generator and the staff motorbike park.

Staff is incredibly friendly and the inner city Kochi location is right along the water, so views can be spectacular. Poolside dining with fresh seafood is a must. And the... more

We had the pleasure of being host at the Taj Residency for one week in November 2007. It was our fourth time in Cochin (the prevoius ones we had chosen The Trident Hotel on the Wellington Island) and we wantend just to change setting. The Taj Residency is definetely worth a stay, also for a longer period of time. I... more
