This hotel offers an authentic flavour of the nature, culture and traditions of the Periyar region in comfort and luxury. An ‘earth experience’ of relaxation, ecology, mountain spirit and tribal wisdom!

Nestled 600 metres high in the Periyar wilderness, surrounded by birds and monkeys, the accommodation consists of a natural yet modern cottage joining simplicity with elegance with your own private garden - where local stone replaces shag carpets and birdsong takes the place of television.  

Spice Village is the ideal location by the lake and near the reserve for boat rides and nature walks in search of birds and other wildlife. The food is excellent here too with delicious organic cuisine prepared with wonderful aromatic spices.
