Amazing experience
Our family had an amazing birthday celebration at Rice Boat, Taj Malabar, and everything exceeded our expectations. A special thanks to Ahilan for planning the event so beautifully and making every detail perfect.
The birthday surprise, cultural performances, and choir made the evening truly unforgettable. The food was exceptional, and compliments to Chef Manoj and Chef Rizwan for the delicious dishes and excellent presentation.
A big thank you to Jomon, Victor, and Jibin for their wonderful hospitality and for ensuring everything went smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate. Highly recommended!

Rice Boat didn’t just serve a meal—they created an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion. Thank you to the entire team!
Short but sweet stay
We stayed at the Taj Malabar on our way back from Munnar to Mumbai. So we were at the property only for a nights stay. We were welcomed by the vivacious Elizabeth, whose walk through about the amenities and things to do in Cochin was to the point and very helpful. The cultural welcome was a treat and special ! My sister is vegan and the chef and the staff at Pepper were hands on in assisting her. Suriya was always meandering closeby ensuring we had all that we needed at all times. The entire staff was welcoming and courteous. Thank you for making our short stay so memorable !! 😊😊🥰
A Perfect Stay at Taj Malabar, Cochin
"I recently stayed at the Taj Malabar, Cochin, from June 13th to 14th to celebrate my son’s birthday, and it was a wonderful experience. The hotel is excellent, and the service was top-notch throughout our stay.
I want to extend a very special thank you to Ms. Shubangi from the reservations team. She was incredibly helpful and truly went above and beyond to make our day special. She kindly arranged a Sea View sunset room for us and even organized a cake as a surprise, which my son absolutely loved. Her attention to detail and hospitality made our celebration memorable.
Thank you, Shubangi, for your warmth and assistance. We had a fantastic time and are already looking forward to visiting again!"
An unforgettable experience.
Some experiences stay with you forever, and this was truly one of them. From the heartfelt welcome we received to the genuine warmth and kindness shown throughout our stay, every moment made us feel valued and cared for. We had checked in for one night with our grandchildren to give them a good time, but we were overwhelmed with all the love and affection we received throughout our stay. The room was the best and the view was spectacular. The hospitality was exceptional, the service was flawless, and every meal was a delightful experience. Every person in this hotel is special and Taj Malabar will always be the benchmark for hospitality and experiences for us. Thank you.
