we stayed in two premium jungle view rooms and one jungle view rooms. first big positive is its fabulous location, within Periyar tiger reserve. you can see the jungle from your window which is however needs to be kept closed to avert monkeys. the interiors and furnitures within the rooms are comfortable (slightly less so in jungle view room). toilet is spacious, neat and clean with adequate toiletries. food served was mostly veg and of good taste. buffet was provided in dinner and breakfast with good range of options and with one non-veg item. staffs are cooperative though we didn't get one to carry our luggage during checkout. boating is the main attraction of Thekkady stay and they will push you to book for boating though it is totally worthy. overall the stay was satisfactory and highly recommended. nice and comfortable stay.

I stayed at the resort for a couple of days with family in December 2021 and had a wonderful time. The property is located inside the Periyar tiger reserve and overlooks the lake. It’s a quiet place and there is lot of greenery and wildlife around: We could see monkeys, giant squirrels, porcupine, deer and a lot of birds in close quarters. The rooms though a bit old, are neat, spacious and comfortable and the hotel staff were friendly and professional. You could arrange tickets for boating from the hotel reception and there are activities like hikes into the jungle and bamboo rafting. The food at the restaurant was tasty but there is not a lot choice (as this a jungle lodge). I recommend this to those looking for a place to wind down and relax in the midst of nature.

I recently stayed at Aranya Nivas in Thekkady for two days, and it was a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly supportive and helpful, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The location is truly amazing, with direct access to the landing point for Periyar Lake boating, which added great convenience to our trip. One of the highlights was seeing deer walking around at night, and my daughter had a delightful time playing with them. The swimming pool was very neat and clean, and my daughter thoroughly enjoyed her time there. Overall, it was a memorable stay, and I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Thekkady.

If you are visiting Thekkady, stay here not anywhere else. The ultimate forest experience.Excellent food. Very well behaved and helpful staff. Film stars and high profile politicians are frequent visitors for them, still they make you feel that you are special. Have not felt this feeling even in ITC hotels.You can normally see porcupine, deers and monkeys every night in the premises. Even they will help you take photos. if you are lucky will get to see Bears, Elephants, King Cobra, Python etc near resort.

In the middle of the forest. Wild life excitingly close. Good buffet dinner(but only one non vegetarian dish) (Rs.400/a-plus tax). A la karte also available. Complementary breakfast. Very good rooms. Very well maintained for a Govt owned property. The negative part is we have to enter the main gate before 5.00pm and hotel compound before 5.30pm. No activities what so ever after that except tv. Shopping or entertainments available in the town cannot be enjoyed. Boat ride available

Our stay at Aranya Nivas Thekkady was splendid. The hospitality is amazing. The natural beauty and wilderness mind blowing. We spotted Sambar Deer, porcupine, Malabar Hornbill, Nilgiri langurs, woolly necked Stork, Cormorants, and so many other varieties of rare species of birds on each session of day we spent. The jungle facing window room itself works like a biodiversity watch tower. The quality of service including restaurant, room service, top notch.

Great location - right inside the jungle. The property was good and excellent customer satisfaction. the food was fresh and overall, it was perfect in every way! we also get so some wild animals roam freely in front of us. Went for walks and the paid boating facility available.

Very close to Lake and situated inside the jungle. The amenities are good and you can even watch some wild animals during your stay. They will arrange for boat tickets also ( on separate payment). Courteous and co operative staff.Overall satisfactory experience.
