Fodor's Expert Review Koder House

Tower Rd., Fort Kochi, Kerala, 682001, India

Unlike the sober Dutch mansions nearby, the three-story Koder House sticks out due to its brick exterior's fire-engine color and slightly unusual, Portuguese-inflected architecture. The six eccentric, attractive rooms are filled with antique furniture, overstuffed armchairs, red coir carpets, and enormous bathrooms. The home was built in 1808 and originally housed Kochi’s most-respected Jewish family.

PROS

  • atmospheric
  • the restaurant, Menorah, serving unique Cochin-Jewish food is attached
  • prime location

CONS

  • staff can sometimes seem a little distracted
  • no elevator
  • ayurvedic spa is old
