Fragrant Nature

Only opened in 2015, the 5* Fragrant Nature has quickly established itself as a firm favourite in Fort Kochi. It is set within the former offices of the East India Company and the majestic facade with its original clocktower remains a local landmark. Built around an airy central courtyard, and displaying works of modern art throughout, the hotel reveals an artful blend of historic signifcance and contemporary chic. Rooms are spacious, imaginatively designed and packed full of useful amenities. Most offer great views of the picturesque harbour. All-day dining is available in the hotel's main restaurant or try the seafood grill or funky Indian street cafe for a light bite. But undoubtedly our favourite spot is the rooftop pool with adjoining cafe and terrace lounge - the perfect retreat after a hard day's sightseeing.
