Introduction
The tranquil waters of the Beautiful backwaters and the palm fringed emerald canals are fast gaining momentum as one of the most popular tourist destinations in India. Kochi earlier known as Cochin is an important port in Kerala and is used as most tourists as the pivot to their itinerary to Kerala. They mostly arrive at Kochi first and then move on to their onward destination from Kochi.
However, Kochi itself deserves quite an attention as a tourist destination by its own right- its long sandy beaches lined with Chinese fishing nets, numerous churches, synagogues and other leftovers of a colonial past.
Likewise, the accommodations available at Kochi are numerous. Besides, Kochi is an important business centre which accounts to the inflow of a large number of corporate travelers to Kochi. These corporate visitors and much of the foreign tourists who visit Kochi are usually on the look out for deluxe accommodation which comes in the shape of 5 Star Hotels in Kochi.
