Proudly part of the Crowne Plaza Kochi, an IHG property, it carries the legacy and service ethos of a globally trusted brand. Even as it brings innovative fusion dishes, SkyGrill also honours the heritage of hospitality excellence associated with its parent brand.

Ambience & Ambience Standards

Perched on the 15th floor of Crowne Plaza, SkyGrill offers guests stunning 360-degree views of Kochi’s skyline and waterways .

Culinary Fusion & Tapas Creativity

SkyGrill shines when it comes to creative, fusion-style tapas and skilfully grilled dishes.

With a menu that caters to meat-lovers, seafood enthusiasts, and vegetarians, each dish is crafted with precision.
