Hotel Visit

Date: October 28, 2024

As part of the academic curriculum, the students of II PG DFSM undertook an enriching hotel visit to two renowned CGH Earth Experience Hotels – Eighth Bastion, Fort Cochin, and Brunton Boatyard, Fort Cochin on 28th October 2024.

The visit aimed to provide the students with practical exposure to the intricacies of food service management and hospitality administration, complementing their theoretical knowledge.

The students explored various facilities within both hotels and gained valuable insights into the operations of different departments, including:

  • Front Office Management: Learning the nuances of guest handling, check-in, and check-out procedures.
  • Housekeeping: Understanding the standards of cleanliness, room setups, and guest services.
  • Food and Beverage Services: Observing kitchen operations, menu planning, and service standards.
  • Hospitality Administration: Gaining an overview of organizational structure and inter-departmental coordination.

The Eighth Bastion charmed the visitors with its unique fusion of Dutch and Kerala heritage, while the Brunton Boatyard showcased its legacy as a colonial-era property redefined with modern hospitality. These venues offered the students firsthand exposure to sustainable tourism practices—a hallmark of CGH Earth’s brand philosophy.

The group comprised 17 postgraduate students and 2 faculty members from the department, who actively engaged with the hotel staff to clarify concepts and enhance their understanding of industry practices.
