Absolutely beautiful room with 3 balconies. In nice, small, quiet streets about 200m from the centre, well away from being hassled by auto drivers and restaurant owners. Beautiful singing from the local church on Sunday mornings. Unlike the centre, you can see and hear a lot of birds. The hosts are brilliant, communicating well and quickly on WhatsApp. They arranged to have our washing done, they even negotiated a lower price for us.

Place was perfect and exactly how it's shown in the photos. I had a room in the new building with kettle, tea and all that was needed for a comfortable stay. Friendly host and the property is in a great location close to eateries and supermarket and lots of tourist attractions. Would certainly recommend staying here.

We had a delightful stay at Fort Bungalow, where the hotel's ambiance immediately strikes you as warm and inviting. Not only is the place impeccably clean, but it's also situated in an ideal location that adds to its charm. Joseph, the owner, truly stands out for his hospitality. He greets all his guests with open arms, making everyone feel right at home. His readiness to assist with anything you might need further enhances the experience, ensuring a memorable stay. I wholeheartedly recommend Fort Bungalow to anyone looking for a welcoming and comfortable place to stay. A heartfelt thank you goes to Joseph for making the experience so special.

We were given a very large upstairs room that had a dining table and 4 chairs. There were tea and coffee making facilities and crockery and cutlery provided. The bed and pillows were comfortable and there is a large balcony off the room. The bathroom was very spacious and the room was serviced regularly. The Homestay is a 30 rupee auto rickshaw ride away from the tourist centre of Fort Cochin, but we really enjoyed getting to know the more authentic neighborhood where the homestay is located. There is an excellent and inexpensive veg restaurant just a 5 to 10 minute walk away, a fruit shop, and also a wine and beer shop close by. We loved our stay here and were sorry to leave. It's extremely well run by very nice people.

The most lovely family run this beautiful homestay. Ours hosts could not have been more helpful: they booked a kathakali show for us, organised a taxi to Munnar, helped to change money. The facilities are typical of a home stay but maintained to a very high standard. It is very clean and comfortable. Consistent hot water. Good WiFi. In a safe area. We would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a simple, great value option.

Mr Roy was a great host. We travelled with 4 kids and all of us felt like our own home. Mr Roy helped us to arrange airport transport and auto (tuk tuk) for nearby movements. He also gave lots of suggestions for tour at Fort Cochin and nearby city. Breakfast was good. I am grateful to choose Leelu Homestay.

This homestay was a home away from home. I really enjoyed my time here, very calm and relaxing. Lakshmi is such a lovely host, very helpful and friendly, served delicious Keralan breakfast at a time to suit me. The room was very clean and comfortable with everything I needed, hot water, air conditioning and ceiling fan. Also filtered water available for drinking, plus tea and sugar to help yourself. If I return to Fort Kochi I will book again here.
