Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty

Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty

10/10 Excellent
"The room was a great size for 6 nights. Bed very comfortable & so many amenities have been thought of. The bar on the roof was nice and staff very friendly. The Malabar cafe for breakfast and dinner was very good and served some lovely dishes. Some waiting staff seem uncomfortable around English speaking guests for some reason many misunderstandings occur. The standout staff member is Shabi (M) who was not only friendly but someone who got everything right and who should be commended for his customer service. Thanks for a great stay."
