Description about the hotel
A part of the Tata Group
of companies www.tata.com, India’s premier
business house, Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces
comprises 57 hotels in 38 locations across India
with an additional 13 international hotels in
the Maldives, Mauritius, UK, Nepal, Sri Lanka,
Africa, and the Middle East. Over the years,
Taj has won international acclaim for its quality
hotels and its excellence in dining, business
facilities, interiors, and world-class, personalized
service.
In India, Taj is recognized
as the premier hospitality provider, spanning
the length and breadth of the country, and
gracing important industrial towns and cities,
beautiful beaches, historical and pilgrim
centres, and wildlife destinations.
Close to civilization and yet totally removed
from it, these charming thatched roof villas
fit right in with their surroundings—the
famous Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary. Rich in comfort
and natural materials, this retreat offers a
welcome respite of relaxation and seclusion.
Location of the hotel
The
drive to Thekkady itself is enchanting as the
road winds through tranquil countryside, rich
plantations & thick jungles. The sanctuary,
60 km from Idukki, 190 km from Cochin and 114
kms away from Kottayam is open throughout the
year, but the best season is from September
to March. The sanctuary is centred around the
large (24 sq km) artificial lake formed by a
dam across the Periyar river. The main attraction
is a boat trip over this man-made lake of Thekkady.
The forest department would also arrange elephant
rides and trekking inside the sanctuary.
By Road:
There are frequent buses from Kumily (4 km
away).
