Hotel Hornbill Camp

The Hornbill Camp has well appointed Cottage Tents set amidst the forests of Thattekkad. The tents are spacious and are set up taking into account a high level of luxury & utility of modern living. En-suite toilet & insect proofing are some of the innovations of the tents at Hornbill camp. Each luxury cottage tent has its own private bathroom and an exclusive sit-out.

Among the specialties of this camp is the comfortable beds, en-suite attached European style closet, shower and running water. We also provide limited power supply available for lights and fans as well as charging facilities for laptops and mobiles (the camp is on the fringe areas with limited mobile reception)
For all visitors to our camp, we arrange kayaking expeditions trips to discover the majesty of the thick forests across the river, short walks in the plantations that surround the camp and village visits for those interested in the culture and lifestyles of the region. The food is ethnic Keralan, prepared with home-grown spices. It would indeed be the ultimate experience to watch the rain forest from your private verandah on the banks of the gently flowing river Periyar.
