Hotel Ambadi Thekkady

Introduction: Periyar Tiger Reserve or Thekkady wildlife reserve as one may call it is an important tourist destination in Kerala. The wild life reserve attracts tourist from all walks of life. Coupled with the call of the wild is the lure of the lush green hills and the man made Periyar lake which acts a water reservoir for the animals. Amidst this idyllic setting stands the sprawling Hotel Ambadi Thekkady. This 46 room heritage resort is designed and conceptualized by the famed architect Mr Lauwrie Baker. The mastery of the architecture lies in the fact that the whole structure has retained the conception of a traditional Kerala village. Ambadi in mythology suggest the birth place of lord Krishna and to that end the main theme of the hotel speaks about the birth and teachings of Krishna.

Hotel Ambadi Thekkady has 24 separate row cottages designed keeping in mind the traditional Kerala thatched roof houses. The café and the restaurant provide world class cuisine tucked amidst the verdant hills of Periyer. The local cuisine cooked with the flavors and spices of Kerala stands out for its sheer taste and exotic aroma. The restaurant in Hotel Ambadi Thekkady is called Adithi which offers you a wide range of Chinese and continental cuisine.

Other tailor made services are also provided by Hotel Ambadi Thekkady. You can enjoy an elephant ride to the very depth of the jungle. Daily trips are also arranged to the Periyar reserve and lake by the hotel authorities.

Hotel Ambadi Thekkady is also very close to the natural trekking grounds. You may perhaps take a fancy to visit their coffee, cardamom, and tea plantations which gives you an in depth idea about the state’s cultivation progress.

The accommodation in the resort is segregated into three parts – duplex rooms, individual cottages and deluxe rooms
