Arriving from New York (via London) at 1 am and a week later from Kochi early evening and in both cases on to other cities early the following morning (Trivandrum and Nagpur), needed a hotel near the airport rated adequate on Tripadvisor. The choice of the Suba was good, about a mile from the international and domestic airports. The rooms were clean and the staff friendly and helpful. The hotel has a shuttle -- one of the main reasons I chose it -- but we were not picked up on arrival from New York. Could have been my fault as I didn't confirm our arrival, though we did have a confirmed reservation which in my view should have been enough. We were picked up on our second stay. Also, we left a wake up call the first stay, which we did not get (fortunately we woke up early as our internal time clock was messed up.) We did get the call the second stay. We paid 5950 rupees (about $120+) rupees the first night, booked via Booking.com, and $133.12 the second night booked via Agoda.com. All in all, a good value for what we needed.
