Spent a week at Mickey's after staying three nights at the Periyar House in the park. Had the front room with the balcony. Lots of birds and naughty monkeys to watch in amongst the coffee plants. Loved the great value, family ambience, the short walk to restaurants and services. Sujatha suggested some touristy things to do (elephant ride, spice farm,... More

We stayed at Mickey's for 2 nights while in Kumily, it was one of the best homestay we stayed in in South India, the owner is very friendly and makes you feel at home, the rooms are clean and have nice peaceful outside space, very relaxing after a trek in Periyar National Parc.

Owners made excusion reservations in advance for us which was extremely helpful for trip planning. when you are on an extremely tight schedule. Meals not available but this was no problem as places to eat nearby.... More

Last january we stayed for 3 days at Mickeys. The cottage was perfect, we felt directly at home. Murali and Sujatha understand what western people hope to find . A beautiful, clean cottage with owners who help you relax and explore. The tourguide they recommend is great and absolutely reliabel. Worth every roepia!

We stayed 1 night and loved this place. It's away from the main drag so reasonably quiet and we had a good night's sleep. A double room with outside bathroom (just across the roof terrace) cost only R600. The room was spacious, clean with mosquito net and private balcony with chairs. The owners were incredibly friendly and helped us find... More

Arriving after a long drive from Cochin the peace and quiet of Mickeys was very welcome. Given the same room as I had previously had the year before I immediately felt at home. The beds (with good mosquito nets) are the most comfortable I have slept in India and the room rate great value. There was plenty of hot water... More

We stayed here whilst visiting Periyer Wildlife Sanctuary and it was one of the cleanest and nicest places we’ve come across in India. After a hot and dusty bus journey from Munnar we were welcomed with a cup of tea and some information about the various guided tours of the nature reserve by the friendly owners. The beds were comfortable,... More

Upon arrival, Sujatha (the owner of this homely little compound), welcomed us with warm tea, 2 slices of pineapple (they were so sweet and good!) and so much zest in her greeting that we felt recharged after the 4hour bus ride from Madurai. She was very friendly, always asking about our day, stopping to chat and laugh with us. Our... More
