Good value and location
No hot water but warm enough not to need it. Rooms are a little dark as no external windows but this makes it nice to sleep in. The internal courtyard is pleasant and the staff very accommodating.

Hotel with great character
I arrived very late at night, but staff were quickly available for check-in. Initially placed in a family room, next morning I was transferred to the room I had booked, which was very roomy, and comfortable. There is considerable history attached to the building's origins, and it's age is evident from the timber work .. eg floorboards a bit creaky in places. But that's part of Rossitta's attraction . . . .

Friendly staff, good location
An old colonial style building close to sites of interest in Fort Cochi. Staff were great. Wood Mansion rooms a bit disappointing. Over all though a nice glace to stay.

Stay here.
We were looking for a place to stay after we landed and this was just fine for the price. The wifi signal was strong, our room was as expected for the price and breakfast was very good. It is a cheery spot to wake up in the morning and walkable to everything. Quod room didn't have ac.

Pretty courtyard
The courtyard was pretty with large shady trees. Very pleasant to sit out day and night. I also like the wooden walls, which gave the hotel a tradional feel.
A couple of concerns though:
The staff quarters are between the reception and guest rooms, which gives them little privacy since the door in one room is left open and the other one doesn't have a door. Nor is it particularly attractive for guests passing by.
On one night, an outsider (non-guest) party was held in the courtyard, which became progressively noisier towards midnight, and despite my complaints, they were unable to be quietened. The party culminated in some kind of an argument and punches were thrown outside my door, which was rather disturbing. The manager, however, was extremely apologetic the next day.

In need of a serious rework.
The restaurant/common area is very charming and a major plus about the place, as was the proximity to the sites and the waterfront. Our room, unfortunately, did not live up to expectations. The wood flooring flexed so badly that it threatened to pinch our feet. The beds were oriented in a way that made it difficult to navigate the room. Of the two a/c units, only one worked and it was barely enough to cool the room. Of the three electrical outlets, only one worked. The TV didn't work either. The room was clean, however, and that was appreciated. And the same-day laundry service was as advertised and very affordable. The staff were very helpful but at the end of the day, the place needs some work especially on the electrical side.

Has a lot of potential, but lacks maintenance
It's a beautiful looking, old property which was the charm that led us to make this booking. But the room we got had some major issues.

Shabby rooms but a fantastic exterior
The photos on the web made me think this place was worth the money Hotels.com asked. When I got there the rooms were at best good for back packers and worth a thrird what I paid. Not worth what I paid here for sure. The exterior is very rustic and well kept, the rooms and bedding, not so much. Also when I asked others what they paid, generally people had turned up there and paid about something closer to its worth so my advice is if you want a back packer hotel, its great - at back packer rates. Though note, no alcohol sold on the premises, the internet was intermittent but Ok when it worked, air con worked fine. I would use it again, but turning up with a rucksack not a suite case and paying an appropriate rate.

Live in history
the rooms are very small and basic. No TV atleast on the rooms we were at ground floor. we should not go if we expect things of a typical hotel, But if you want to stay in a hotel 300+ years old and see and feel the history you must visit the hotel. very nice and supportive staff. maintenance of the rooms are quite nice. location is also quite nice.

The rositta castle is a lovely old fashioned hotel. Good location near loads of restaurants and shops in Fort Kochi. The hotel is a little quirky and was nice to stay in.

Meh!
Since it is somewhat of a vintage building, the property has a lot of character. The location is great - walking distance to the harbour. That said, it is very very basic and do not expect the comforts of a good stay. It is just functional. Big let down was the food. Do not bother eating at the hotel - the food is canteen food at best and the service and hygiene pathetic. The hotel "restaurant" (if you can call it that ) is apparently run by an independent contractor and is no better than street food and a bit pricey for the fare offered.
It is a bit of a shame as the property has a lot of potential and could offer more for the value of the money charged. Other than the vintage character and location - every thing else was MEH!
