However it did not work that well and in the morning after an excellent breakfast we spoke to Nadia in reception and our bill was... More

Don't bother with cafe! Their food is not good at all. It says toast with jam and butter on the menu, the worker often vanishes the butter and jam. Sunny side-up actually is a sunny side-down from this place. Their toasts are sweet just like a lot of places in India. :( More

Central location for visiting sites in Cochin. The place itself appears to be veering towards expensive boutique trendy hotels. Vasco de Gama is central just a street away from the chinese fishing nets. Rooms basic but ok. Good breakfast, omellette and toast and jam plus bananas. Extra toast offered if needed. We had paid for air conditioned room but his... More

This guest house is clean, central and value for money. Its very basic and if you want AC there is an extra charge.....we found the fan was enough. We had a small balcony but no view but this wasn't an issue. Breakfast was included in the price and although basic it was tastey and there was plenty of it. The... More

I have tried other cheap hotels in Cochi i.e around a 1000Rups (Vasco normaly about 1500, but if it's not busy you can strike a deal) and this was the best. Vinny the manager was exceptional in all the help he gave me and the other guests. Free internet (no Wi-Fi, which was... More

The location is good, rooms are clean but dreary. We paid 1200 Rs for an A/C room and indeed there was an air conditioner in the room. But when we tried to turn it on it did't work. We were told that there was a surcharge of 250 Rs for A/C that was not disclosed.when.we checked in. The staff, friendly... More

When my friend and I got to Cochin, I was rather hot and cranky. We looked for a while for a place that looked within our budget, and we thought Vasco Da Gama Inn would be out of it. To be honest, it was, but since it's the slow season, we did a bit of bargaining and got a more... More

We happened to check-in into Vasco da Gama Inn as the taxi driver took us there instead of Vasco House (which was recommended to us). We checked the place and found it to be tidy. We stayed there for two nights. The rooms are simple but comfortable and clean. We were served good Indian breakfast on the first morning though... More
