Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay

This homestay is really worth the charge. It is located in town, close to local activity, yet the sanctuary entrances are within walking distance. The room we had was large, neat and clean, and airy. The beds were large and comfortable. The bathroom was also large and clean. There was piped hot water at specific times, and on request. It may have been the season (mid-January), but there were no mosquitoes (despite the greenery around), and there was no need for reconditioning. There was a sit-out with a view of hills and a sense of openness. (Lots of flowers and birds - we even spotted a hornbill! The host and hostess are cheerful, polite and helpful. They provide food on request (though we didn't have the opportunity to sample their fare). All in all, ideal for a few days' are and are !! We'd give it 5/5 for everything except for facilities. This, alone, we'd rate at 4/5 because 2 facilities could be added - (i) an electric kettle and some crockery so that guests can feel free to make tea/coffee for themselves (ii) a little geyser in the bathroom so that guests could feel free to use hot water without troubling the hosts.

Beautiful places are always beautiful. What makes them less or more beautiful is human behavior. And this is where Kerala House Homestay scores. The location, the service, these are all excellent. Some might complaint about the non-availability of an in-house restaurant but that's not a problem at all. With scores of those lining the street just outside the Homestay. For our part though we got delicious tea made and served by the owner's family. The owner, Subu and his wife are two oversampling persons ready to assist you anytime and in whichever possible way getting invited to their home and the subsequent long chat was only obvious. Vinoy, Subu's relative is a powerhouse of energy. Always by our side. Facilitating and fulfilling our needs. His wife visited us and we had a very informative talk with her. The best part was their children, 2 boys and 2 girls. They were so lovable. What more does one need to feel at home!

Great location and view from the balcony of the Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay. Very relaxed and pleasant surroundings. Nicely clean rooms, best value for money. Only food is not available at the Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay itself. But you have plenty of restaurants in front of this Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay. The Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay is has a very great view at its backside and from the windows and you can really feel relaxed throughout the day if you simply stay inside this Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay for all day long.

Overall good experience. The homestay is in a very good location with proximity to both the cockleshell art centre which is about 10 min walking dist and the boating place whose entry gate is about 10 min away (mind you there are no Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay/homestay available after the entry gate). The host is quite knowledgeable and sane minded. The hostess was also very helpful she picked our bags when we arrived and departed. We had to ask her to keep them down out of embarrassment.

I chose the Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay after Reading many reviews regarding the Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay. It is quite serene place to relax with your partner. You can stay calm and happy. Cleanliness of the room is excellent. The only demerit regarding the honestly I felt was the path from the main road to the home stay, also there is no parking area. Overall I would give a rating of 4/5.

Right in the heart of Thekkady town, this homestay is one of the best budget accommodation I have ever stayed in Kerala. The rooms are nice and clean, the hosts are always eager to serve and they will happily guide you to local sightseeing options. The view of the Periyar Tiger Reserve from the balcony is wonderful. Don't expect 3 star facilities though, because this is just for stay and not for luxury.

I stay for two nights. Rooms were spacious with beautiful views from balcony from which we had seen 2 deer and 1 bison. Owner of the Homestay was very polite and helpful he gave good guidance to visit nearby place but 1 thing in cable TV only regional show were coming for which children were disappointed. Overall it was one of the memorable stay in Thekkady I will like to visit again and again.

Total 10 rooms, we occupied 3. It is on main road behind pizza am outlet. For parking, depend on main road as there is no facility. Another drawback is missing breakfast. Option suggested is owners brothers restaurant. Rooms are big with basic beds. Clean. Bathrooms are also big. National park boundary is same as home stay. We saw samovar deer and various birds seating in room. Recommended.

Very helpful hosts. Good service. The ambience and view from the room isn't very great if you are looking for luxury... But gives a homely feel. Can recommend it for good and small budget options. It is located in the market area.

Mr. Shibu is an excellent host. Homestay is in middle of the town, everything is just at a walkable distance, tiger reserve, shows, market all are within reach. Host is an excellent guide for the city and gives all the required information.

The rooms are good and located in a decent place where you can enjoy your privacy and spend good quality time with friends and family, prices are reasonable and you can find restaurants closer .. Worth spending.

Location is nearer to Periyar National Park in which we saw bison, dear in day and also on night. Room are so spacious, neat and clean. All bed linen and pillow covers are clean. The owner is very polite and of helpful nature who helped us out than his scope.

No food in that Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay we have to arrange it from outside. That is is the only drawback.
Not too much good, but it is calm place to stay.

Location was very close to boat entrance. Room was very clean and owner family very helpful. Hot water available only morning time but they could arrange for our kids. Good restaurants nearby. Nice place to stay.

Nice Location. On the way to lake side. Room was clean and comfortable for family. There is no parking facility, we want to park our vehicle in road only. Back side of the property is forest only. Some time we can able to see animals also. Best place for spent time.

I have stayed at this Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay already few times during my small groups Tours to Kerala. This is a convienent place for to start early morning boat safari in the lake. Hotel rooms are nice and clean, possible to use WiFi, possible to arrange breakfast. The owner family is hospitable and helpful with any question and can give the right advices.

Excellent experience, room, bathroom are very clean. View from balcony too good. Owner and his wife very helpful and friendly in nature. I should recommend one should stay here. Location of homestay is good and easily find restaurant outside the street.

Overall experience was good. Value for the money.
It was very chill temperature in Thekkady. The hot water supply was improper. No water bottle in room but Room was very neat and clean.

The Kerala House | Rooms in a Homestay stay is good. Neat n clean.

Staff is nice and very helpful over all value for money and place are within the market and fresh air with view from balcony Mr Shibu is very nice and support us he make safari arrangement at thekkady we will travel again and stay in same place again in near future.
