In years gone by it was the busy shipyard business of Geo Brunton and Sons on the seafront in Fort Kochi. Now beautifully restored, this period building of the British Raj is a boutique, five-star hotel with a unique charm.
Brunton Boatyard remains tastefully sympathetic to its colonial and mercantile past, with tremendous high ceilings, terracotta floors, lime plastered walls and old punkah fans making it truly feel like you’ve stepped back in time.
Go on a sunset cruise around the harbour on Brunton Boatyard’s own craft to experience the beautiful seascapes and the working waterways first-hand.
There is so much to explore amongst the remains of Fort Kochi. Head out on foot to explore Jew Town, Mattancherry market and watch the sunset behind the iconic Chinese fishing nets.
