BEST HOMESTAY IN KOCHI
A prominent port city in the south Indian state of Kerala, Kochi is commonly referred to as the ‘Queen of the Arabian Sea’. Many surveys have ranked Kochi as one of the top tourist spots to visit in India. Presently, Kochi is the industrial, financial, and commercial capital of Kerala. Home to the Cochin Exchange, Kochi Refineries, the Southern Naval Command of the Indian Navy, Infopark, High Court of Kerala, and Kerala’s National-level Law School, Kochi is a city that has plenty to offer for both the casual tourist and the business traveller. Similar to most other places in Kerala, tourism happens to be the major contributor to Kochi’s economy. Kochi enjoys connectivity with most other cities in India by way of airways (Cochin International Airport), roadways (NH 66, NH 544, NH 966 A & B, Vyttila Mobility Hub), and railways (four major stations - Ernakulam South, Ernakulam North, Tripunithura, and Aluva). As Kochi is one of the biggest cities in Kerala, it is quite easy to find the kind of accommodation which is best suited to your requirements. If you’re looking for a more personalized kind of accommodation, opt for a homestay in Kochi. Homestays are usually small-to-medium-sized apartments or cottages where you can stay comfortably. They are mostly managed by families or retired professionals and offer homely food and beds. A Kochi homestay will also serve dishes from the Kerala cuisine, prepared in-house and is likely to be positioned close to places of tourist interest. Good homestays in Kochi offer on-site parking, outsourced/in-house laundry service, free Wifi, and complimentary breakfast. The in-room amenities provided at a homestay usually include a television with DTH/cable connectivity, an electric kettle, air-conditioning, and branded toiletries. Some of the must-see places in Kochi include Santa Cruz Cathedral Basilica, Mattancherry Palace, Jewish Synagogue, Kerala Folklore Museum, Mangalavanam Bird Sanctuary, Vasco Da Gama Square, Hill Palace Museum, Thrikkakara Vamana Moorthy Temple, and Subhash Bose Park. Restaurants that you must give a try while in Kochi include The Rice Boat, Fort House Restaurant, Paragon, The Asian Kitchen, Oceanos, Mary’s Kitchen, Tibetan Chef’s Restaurant, and Pizza Italia. For shopping and entertainment purposes, head to LuLu Mall, Oberon Mall, Gold Souk Grande, or Centre Square Mall.
