Even though the port city’s golden period came to an abrupt end in the 14th century due to a natural calamity, the city’s legendary grandeur has always inspired artists. This very narrative has been the inspiration behind the Port Muziris, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel by Marriott International in Kochi, by studio HBA. The hotel is located very close to the Cochin International Airport.
