The property is excellent and the staff was very attentive. The food was delicious and not very expensive. The property was very close to the tiger reserve. we stayed there for one night but realized that we should have stayed longer. To experience a true pariyar forest i suggest that you ask the hotel to book a rafting trif or... More

Regret that I had only one night stay here...Checked in at 2 PM and was given 207, which was a decent one. The room was spacious and the washroom had a bath tub as well. Nesteled amongst the trees, the resort offers various facilities for the customers like swimming pool, TT, Carrom, SPA etc... I was also told they arrange... More

Stayed at Cardamom County last week. Awesome! My room faced the forest & its the proximity to the Reserve lets you feel the throb of live within the forest. Watching the stars on the terrace above the restaurant was amazing. The staff are very courteous & facilities top notch. the weather was cool, I didn't even need the fan.

Upon arrival, we were graced with a flower necklace and sandalwood powder for our foreheads- I felt like a queen! The front desk staff is so knowledgeable about the Periyar Reserve and Thekkady. They could tell me all about the animals or insects or plants I saw during my trek. The All Spice Restaurant is delicious!!! I'd wake up ready... More

The atmosphere of Cardamom County is so warm and comfortable and welcoming - I was sad to say bye to the staff there. It's proximity to the Periyar Reserve makes it a must, and the hotel grounds are refreshing. The organic garden is a delight, especially when you enjoy it on the plates in All Spice, the restaurant - which... More

I stayed at Cardamom County last spring and had a lovely stay. The service is top-notch. We were given a full tour of the resort (including the wonderful organic garden), had a private yoga lesson twice during our stay, and had a very authentic ayurvedic treatment at the spa. The hotel staffed helped us plan multiple activities for each of... More

Beautifully set in garden surrounds. Being cooler than the coast the fans in the ceiling were all that we needed in the spacious room with a view across the valley as we watched monkeys in the trees. The waiting staff in the restaurant very helpful, food a little disappointing. Climbing up the hillside paths and stairways cannot be avoided.

I stayed here in March for two days with friends. The staff were incredibly helpful in planning our activities in the area. They helped us book a tour inside the reserve. We did a full day trek called border hiking, which is the longest day trek in the reserve. They also helped us book a tribal dance show at night.... More

The hotel is average, but we are probably spoilt as we stayed at some amazing hotels during our trip. The 2 rooms we were given clean and spacious but they were dark and we had to have the lights on during the day. The location is good as its near the shops and restaurants. The pool is adequate, but no... More
