This is a beautiful spot - on the river, calm and palm fringed. The staff are friendly and helpful, we only had one night here, leaving early for the airport but would happily have stayed longer. Our room had a huge comfortable bed, a lovely ensuite bathroom and everything was clean and their own brand toiletries were lovely. There is also a cute shop with clothes by the owner's brand. Food was tasty and the swimming pool is stunning! Thank you for a lovely stay.

Absolutely perfect

Wow what a serene beautiful setting in the River. We were absolutely spoilt with attention & great service.
Chef Anish & assistant chef Baby cooked to order & delicious with lots of it. Jeevan & everyone made our stay perfect, especially after our hour sunset boat trip we had a table set up under the tree on the edge of the River. Alchil the nite porter super helpful. We had the Ayurveda massage & wow another amazing experience.

Absolutely magical spot right on the banks of the legendary Periyar River and close to historically significant sites. If you want to spend your vacation in total relaxation (hammocks and ancient Indian massages with stunning views, delicious Kerala food and friendly fast service) this is the place for you.

My frail 87 year old mother and I stayed here after a very long journey from the U.S. to rest up before heading on to our house a few hours away by car. The accommodating manager Justin booked our taxis and even arranged for a wheelchair. Akhil met us at the car with the chair at 3am when we got to the resort. Even at that late hour he was ready to bring us food—mummy actually asked for ice cream and got it! But it’s only after we woke up in our smartly designed room with a private patio that we realized how lucky we were. Shout out to the super staff Jeevan, Zachariah, the ladies in the kitchen, the cleaners, and the gardeners who are the heart of the place. Thank you all!

So pleased we did . Staff are super friendly, you can hire bikes and take a sunset river trip . Great food and the pool is beautifully designed . Would definitely recommend

We chose this property to have a couple of quiet days after our whirlwind 28 day tour of India. It exceeded all of our expectations. We did not meet the owners, but Justin, Amal, and all the staff were friendly and accommodating which made a wonderful location even better. I highly recommend eating all of your meals there during your stay, the chef is amazing. It might also be one of the quietest places in India. 🙂

Small and stylish in a perfect setting

Cranganor is a lovely small hotel in the most beautiful of locations. All rooms are positioned to have river views. I had one of the mustard/teal rooms and loved the views from the spacious balcony. Great infinity pool, and also hammocks scattered through the grounds.
It is very quiet - this is a place to come and unwind - no cafes/restaurants within walking distance. Food on site was very enjoyable. The staff were all friendly and helpful - a great team. And I highly recommend the massages in the spa. The couple who built this place run it, and their love for it shows in the attention to detail and high standards.

The property is located in a very beautiful setting, not very far from Cochin Airport, making it very accessible. We booked the Green and Black room which had a picture perfect view of the river. The room was very well designed with tasteful choices in decor and furniture. Special call-out to the stunning open bath which makes for a very perfect Instagram picture.
I sincerely believe that any good property can be made even better with its service levels. And on that, I rate Cranganor up there on the scale. Ashiq, Jeevan and the staff were friendly, approachable and extremely hospitable. They ensured we got what we needed and helped us plan our stay very well. They booked us on a guided tour of the area with an exceptional guide named Stanley- highly recommended for a more informative and immersive experience.
Finally the food. The chef did wonders with the prawns and the crab and we had to all we could in our control to not order extra portions. The Kerala cuisine was authentic and exquisite.
All in all, a great stay and a wonderful experience. We went there on our anniversary and we were not disappointed at all.

Can completely escape the outside world. Beautiful setting, lovely, quirky rooms. Infinity pool giving you the impression that you are swimming into the river.
The staff were so so nice, couldn’t do enough for you.
Only downside is that it is quite isolated so not a great place to stay if you want to make trips to other places
