We stayed at Meadow View Inn in a watchtower room on third floor, which was really wonderfull. We had a balcony on three sides an could sit there for hours watching the wildlife below. The homestay is located on the edge of a meadow bordering Periyar Tiger Reserve. We didn't see any tigers or elephants there. But sitting on our... More

We had a very nice time at this homestay when we visited this place last november. The visit to Periyar lake was well organized. Satish helped us settle in and the visit to periyar the next morning was very well organized. Food, cleanliness and overall hospitality was very good. We had gone around Diwali, and we realized that Keralites do... More

Located at a very narrow alley on the right side of the road to the Periyar national park, about 400 meters from the entrance , this is one of the best examples of a small but absolutely lovely guesthouse. After arriving early in Thekkady i decided to take some time to take a look at several guesthouses. Most of them... More

This place has character that matches the surroundings. It was not on the LP list which pleased me, it is found by word of mouth. Meadow View Inn was the perfect place for a budget-minded sixty-plus year old that had backpacked around the world twice when younger, the type of tourist that wants to experience directly the places visited for...

I enjoyed very much a relaxed stay on the first and second floor. It feels like you on a jungle tree house. Very professional and attentive customer care from the owner that shouldn't be taken for granted. Highly recommended for an affordable price of rs.1200 per night. More

My family stayed here for 2 nights and very much enjoyed our time. The location was wonderful for sight seeing, we might have even seen a Tiger!! it could have been a large jungle cat, but the mystery just adds to the excitement we felt on our balcony that night. The Keralan food they prepared was very delicious and the... More

We would highly recommend this homestay (B&B). Initially we were wary of staying in a homestay but the set up was great, allowing each guest some privacy. Each of the 4 rooms are on their own floor and each has a balcony that overlooks a portion of the park that we were in the area to visit. We were on... More

We were really impressed with the rooms at this place. Beautifully decked out with wood carvings and solid wood furniture. We had the Bison room, which is the upper most room in the building and has great views over a meadow and watering hole. Just how many animals actually use the watering hole I'm not sure, a couple of pigs... More
