This place came highly rated on Tripadvisor, but I'll say that this may not live up to that many expectations. For the price, the place could've been more comfortable. It is located a little off the main road that leads to the Periyar Tiger Reserve, but is easy to locate if you follow the sign posts. The entrance is small,... More

We stayed 3 nights in the family room with our two kids. It was more like an apartment with a living room, a kitchen, a bedroom and a bathroom with a nice hot shower. The only thing that would have been nice to have, was a a kettle and perhaps a small fridge. We had a nice view of the... More

We started out on a bad note because I wired money for a deposit from the US and they wanted me to pay their transfer fee which I wasn't going to do and they relented. We had reserved 4 rooms for 4 days. When we arrived we were notified that Chrissy had accidentally overbooked one of the rooms and would... More

Our personal view. We just stayed one night here as we were travelling. Dont know if its the right word but 'quaint' springs to mind. For those of you with limited walking ability, there is quite a steep path from the main body of the hotel to the rooms. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the setting enhanced by... More

We had chosen this hotel because it has many good reviews on a tripadvisor. But I would estimate it no more than on three points. The hotel is located in the immediate vicinity of high voltage transmission line. The building with rooms is separately from the building with restaurant. There are a lot of the beautiful plants, all green, the... More

Chrissie and Adel have created a haven of friendliness and tranquility with a very homely feel. The staff is super-friendly and efficient and their service is impeccable yet non-intrusive. We love the greenery and flowers in the garden and growing on the balconies. The menu is original and the food is delicious. The location is quiet yet still within walkable... More

Fantastic Welcoming stay here. Had to arrive a couple of days early due to the strike, Chrissie was very kind & organised for a taxi to come and pick us up- a 4 hour drive. Wonderfully run, everyone who works there is helpful, friendly, & made me finally feel on holiday. Great view from the upper rooms, & lovely little... More

Great value rooms and hotel. Rooms were basically furnished but totally clean and a really good size. Double doors opened up onto a balcony that had great views over the garden and into the hills. Excellent to relax and watch monkeys leap through the canopy. Most rooms have a balcony or outdoor verandah, apart from a couple that are back... More
