We were warmly welcomed at the Spice Village. Accommodation is in bungalows in the extensive grounds which are well equipped - the bathroom in our bungalow could do with updating but that is my only criticism. They obviously thought the lower temperatures at night might be a problem and we found hot water bottles in our bed one night! The... More

Lovely relaxing place to stay. We stayed for 2 nights and could have done with longer to visit Periyar and the spice plantations. We recommend the 4 pm tour by the enthusiastic naturalist around the gardens -not many people took this up so we had our own private tour! The cookery demonstrations are a treat, and the smaller outside restaurant... More

Rooms are spacious and well appointed. Bathrooms are also specious, plenty of hot water. All very clean. Nice touches like rose petals placed on the bed one of the evenings. The property... More

we stayed at Spice Village last year and liked it a lot, but we found that some things have changed for the worse. The welcome drink was only a simple herbal tea. There was no kettle in the room, you had to call the restaurant for hot water. There were no activities for children any more, e.g like paper making,... More

The Spice Village Hotel reminded my husband and I of Disneyland; we loved it though! The grounds are gorgeous and the buildings are bungalow style with thatched roofs. The service here wasn't quite as impeccable as at Brunton Boatyard or Coconut Lagoon, but the experience was still nice. We loved the location, right in the heart of town, because we... More

Spice Village is one of those places that gives you a wonderful, cozy, homey feeling. Rooms were very nice and clean, staff very attentive. Location is very convenient, lots of restaurants nearby walking. Periyar Tiger Preserve is close and very worthwhile. The only issue is the price - very expensive, and the most expensive Snooker that we played in India... More

The village is located close to the Periyar Tiger reserve and set up as a spice garden.The rooms are spacious and the service was very good - the cot bed we had requested for before reaching there was already placed in our room. The staff is helpful, courteous, prompt and polite. The best service is the wi-fi connectivity which you... More
