We were there from 13april to 20 april and from the very first day we were given a Royal Treatment. Whether it is food, room, everything was excellent. If you are looking for peace and want to avoid hustle bustle of city, you can live here.

This place is around 80 plus KM from Cochin AKA Ernakulam. You have to first touch Trichur and then travel another 30 plus KM to reach this place from Cochin. The drive is scenic no doubt. You do get to see the riches and opulence of Gulf expat Keralites through out the drive, with beautiful alignment of hearts and soul,... More

We booked for 2 nights to enable us to go to the Pariyanampetta Pooram (which was truly stunning, and well worth a visit) but the general strike meant there was no transport to move on. Fortunately we were able to stay on an extra 2 nights and what a lovely place to be stranded. With an a/c restaurant with a... More

Okay room, Not so clean bathroom and the building needs TLC. The swimming pool needs cleaning and regular maintenance as guests wouldn't get in if there were dead insects on the bottom surface of the pool! Food was not bad and the food and bev manager personally made sure our needs were met adequately.
