KTDC Periyar House Thekkady

It was good

Overall hotel was good. Good staff But only drawback is 5 pm the gates are shut but u can request the ktdc hotel for a jeep. Food is ok. Rooms give u feeling of olden resorts. But the location is very good to feel the forest environment. Beware of the monkeys. Front desk Manager was very helpfull.

Was a well kept property with decent food catered by the restaurant. Right inside the jungle. Probably the cheapest among the 3 properties in Thekkady maintained by Kerala tourism.

Very good hotel right in the jungle. Good restaurant

rooms are great even the property is also good especially that forest atmosphere,but they need to improve a lot in food and beverages, also the restrictive timing by the forest department which should be relaxed at least by allowing the guests for casual walking in the main road to the lake

Periyar house is a nice experience only because you get to stay in the national park premises. The food at the restaurant was good. But the room as such can be rated as 2 star. But it's a good facility for a night's stay, not beyond that. The biggest advantage is that it's just 10 minutes walk from the boat launch and the trekking point. Since one cannot go out or get in the park after 5.30pm, the restaurant inside is the only option for dinner.

Periyar House nestles right in the woods.Elephants,hedgehogs,deers are regular visitors at night.Hotel services are organised.Since no engagements in night, the hotel indoor games facilities sould be more developed.Overall we enjoyed the stay.

Food needs attention. Quality of preparation and taste is specific to a pallet.

Exceptional

Hi , I have stayed in periyaar house for 2 days. Its a very nice location but it has some pros n cons too. Pros- 1. One of the best experience of living in woods 2. Periyaar lake is on walking distance and hotel will provide u the tickets of boat ride so u don't need to be in long queue. 3. Nature walk in the periyaar forest in a very reachable location near to lake. 4. First trip to boat ride is best, this view can't be beat by any other time. 5 we were lucky enough to see many animals like elephant etc while our boat ride. Cons- 1. After 5:30pm u need to be in the hotel only. Can't go even beyond 50 MTS due to safety reasons. 2. Rooms are OK , don't expect much if u r on looking for fancy one. 3. 2 days are too much to be here , one night stay for all the activities would be suffice. Second day was kind of boring as there is nothing much to do.
