The guesthouse is very spacious, clean and well located in Fort Kochi. The price is fair for the quality. But the greatest asset is the kindness of the Landlord M.

Would definitely recommend staying with Harri. It was so relaxing and just a minutes walk from Pricess St. We had breakfast a couple of mornings there which was fantastic! All of the family were very accommodating and welcoming and the rooms are nice and clean. There is also a nice outside area to read and chill. More

Harry and his wife were so accommodating and pleasant that we extended our stay to nearly 5 days. The large upstairs room has a balcony,... More

WOW- We stayed here in January and found it to be the best. The room was perfect, clean tidy and large, very quiet location but central fort Cochin on your doorstep. Harry the owner (fluent English) could not do enough for us, so ask if you need anything. His wife was the best cook ever, just try the coconut banana... More

We stayed at sithara twice in february and were incredibly pleased by both harry and his house.

The breakfast was simple but actually very delicious and we were provided with lots of help when planning the rest... More
