Brunton Boatyard - A CGH Earth Experience

Located in the heart of historic Fort Kochi, Brunton Boatyard is more than a luxury hotel — it is an experience that brings the spirit of colonial Cochin to life. Once a busy Victorian boatyard during Kerala’s thriving spice trade era, this beautifully restored heritage property now stands as one of the most iconic destinations in Fort Kochi.

Part of the experience-based hospitality group CGH Earth Experience Hotels, Brunton Boatyard is designed for travelers who seek culture, history, and meaningful experiences rather than just a stay. From the moment guests arrive, they are welcomed into a world where heritage and elegance blend effortlessly.

The hotel reflects the colonial influences that shaped Fort Kochi over centuries. Inspired by British, Dutch, and Portuguese architecture, its high ceilings, graceful verandahs, hanging fans, antique furniture, and carefully preserved artifacts recreate the charm of a historic trading era. Every detail tells a story, making guests feel as though they have stepped into another time.

Overlooking the scenic harbour, the hotel offers breathtaking views of the Arabian Sea, where ferries and fishing boats continue their journeys much like they did centuries ago. Evenings at Brunton Boatyard are especially magical, with golden sunsets, cool sea breezes, and the quiet charm of old Fort Kochi creating unforgettable moments.

Beyond the hotel lies the cultural soul of Fort Kochi itself — narrow colonial streets, art cafés, spice markets, heritage buildings, and the iconic Chinese fishing nets. Staying at Brunton Boatyard allows guests to experience this historic town in an intimate and authentic way.

The rooms combine vintage aesthetics with modern comfort, offering warm wooden interiors, elegant décor, and a peaceful atmosphere inspired by Kerala’s rich heritage. Dining is equally memorable, with cuisine that celebrates local flavors, fresh seafood, and Kerala’s world-famous spices.
