Booked this property since we were in Fort Kochi for exactly 24 hours, most of which we planned to spend outdoors. On that front, it has a great location advantage. It is a short walking distance from the water metro terminal. Places we visited on foot from here: Princess Street, St. Francis Church, David Hall, Vasco Da Gama Square, Chinese Nets, MG Beach, Beach Walkway, Burgher St Cafes & Restaurants - Qissa, Kashi Art Cafe, Trouvaille, Lila Art Cafe, Seagulls Autos were easily available to go to Mattancherry side. The property was a good budget option and was safe, convenient, clean and functional for what we were expecting from a short stay.

Great atmosphere at the common area on the ground floor, nice staff who hang out with us. Location is top, food stalls, nice restaurants nearby. During the day you can visit Mattancherry (not very close but still walking distance), at night the pier (right next to the hostel). From the nearby bus stop you can get to Ernakulam.

All hostels in Cochin

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The Hosteller is located in a great location to explore Fort Kochi. The dorm was clean and comfortable, with excellent AC which was much needed. The rooftop area was a nice space to relax in.

    Good location, good staffs. When I reached to the hostel, they wanted to suggest me another option of the lower bunk bed in another mix dormitory(Ⅰbooked 1 Lady dorm but already occupied lower bunk beds). More over, after arguing with other inns, when I was suddenly told that I wanted to come back here, I was warmly welcomed immediately.
