Taj Malabar Resort & Spa

Taj Malabar was built in 1935 to accommodate passengers arriving into Cochin by sea. Surrounded by manicured lawns and swaying coconut palms, this hotel is located on the edge of Willingdon Island and offers direct views of the Cochin harbour. Taj Malabar is divided into two wings and offers accommodation in the both original ‘Heritage Wing’ and the newer modern ‘Tower Wing’. The rooms and suites in the ‘Heritage Wing’ are decorated in warm browns and pastels and feature elegant Victorian style furnishings and polished teak wood floors in keeping with the property’s character, while accommodation in the ‘Tower Wing’ is distinctly modern and contemporary in style. Rooms overlook both the city and the harbour. The hotel offers guests a choice of 4 restaurants including a specialty sea food restaurant that celebrates traditional Keralan cuisine, and an open-air restaurant serving delicious ‘Peshawari’ kebabs and seafood grills alfresco style. The relaxing lounge bar offers exotic cocktails and serves wines and spirits from around the world. Other facilities include an outdoor swimming pool, a spa offering relaxing massages and a well-equipped gym. Guests staying at Taj Malabar have the opportunity to hire the hotel’s luxury yacht either for a day cruise or stay overnight and explore the Keralan backwaters.
