Abad Green Forest Thekkady Reviews

Nice hotel in a great location. Our room was quite large with a king size bed. The hotel is a bit dated but was comfortable. The bathroom could use a deep clean and the floors could be swept/mopped under the furniture not just the main room. There was a nice looking pool but we didn’t use it. Not warm enough for us. Breakfast was buffet style and they had mostly Indian food but they also had pancakes, omelet and toast.

Neat cottage rooms with bathroom. Food menu was limited but taste was awesome. Spice level matching kerala taste buds. Friendly staff. Good location. Ample carparking for private and own vehicles in seperate areas.overall a very good experience

The Hotel location is Perfect proximity to the Tiger Preserve ,ELEPHANT CAMPS & CLOSE PROMITIY TO THE MARKET SHOPPING AREAS. Peppermint Restaurant has a good menu but More than half of the items are NOT available. Also the complementary breakfast did not have many varieties. Rooms well furnished, with a balcony overlooking the greenery. The washroom was very clean with all necessary gadgets and excellent room service. The path from the room to the restaurant was through a well maintained garden. The swimming pool was quite good but due to weather conditions couldn't spend more time in the pool .Would suggest a warm pool in this case. Car parking space were adequate. Ayurveda SPA was excellent with good privacy and friendly staff. check in and checkout was handled smoothly.

The Hotel location is Perfect proximity to the Tiger Preserve. Hotel has Monkeys running through the trees and jumping on the balcony. Therefore, be careful with what you put out on your balcony and lock the sliding glass doors or you will bet un-invited guest. The monkeys are cute and entertaining. Peppermint Resturant has a good menu but 1/2 the items are NOT AVAILABLE. Therefore very very limited. Also No Bar. The Moose & Malt bar is a close 10 min walk. Hotel is undergoing expansion construction that is Not very organized or considerate of the guests. Construction starts before breakfast, which starts late at 8AM and ends at 10AM. Construction noise is bad at breakfast. Additionally the construction kills the pool enjoyment. The Hotel Power constantly goes out and resets the WIFI signal. The Hotel is the best one in the area and very convenient to the Tiger Preserve. Therefore, I recommend this Hotel. Best bang for the price and service. Staff professional & friendly with making you pleased with your stay. The tiger preserve is great, but if you want to see animals get your walking shoes and take the raft and trek. You will need to trek deep into the park too see the wildlife.

The rooms I stayed in was well furnished, with a balcony overlooking the greenery. The washroom was very clean with all necessary gadgets. The path from the room to the restaurant was through a well maintained garden. The swimming pool was quite good. The restaurant served sumptuous food and the price tag was reasonable. Most importantly, the behaviour of the staff was very good and extremely helpful.

We had a comfortable stay. Ours was a short stay and we could relax very well in mids of the trees. The kids enjoyed the pool and scenic beauty of the resort. The food and service were excellent, the HK staff was fast on their errands. Good to see the Resort Manager and Chef assisting the guest in the restaurant. All the hotel staffs were very welcoming and cordial and deserve an appreciation.

A really nice resort in a great location near to many shops and restaurants. The rooms are nice, clean and comfortable. Everything about this place was really lovely. The only reason for 4 stars is our neighbours downstairs were loudly talking and partying outside our window until 4am and reception didn’t seem able to do anything about it which was a real shame.

I had wonderful stay, The experience was amazing Ms.Shilpa from reception had the best smile and she is very helpful.The restuarants are nice and the checkin and check out was very smooth. very good location staff is very helpful, Very spacious and clean room with very good view & nice pool and staff is very professional from restaurant and excellent services.

Really we enjoyed our stay at Abad, Thekkady. We booked 3 cottages for 10 persons through the resort's online booking facility. The rooms were so clean and comfortable; worth for money too. Complementary breakfast was also good. Totally nice place to stay.

We booked Jungle rooms and we stayed for 2 days with family and friends. Many tourist spots are close by, the resort had good breakfast, clean rooms, friendly staff, help desk staff at the reception were polite, swimming pools were clean. Car parking space were adequate. Jungle rooms do not have any AC but the management can install one and can be used based on the customer preference. Overall had a plesant stay, will recommend to others.

Insufficient plug points 2 nights in Jungle Cottage Walk in shower - old shower and bathroom not clean No safe King sized bed Poor WiFi in room Room floor not clean Dinner not particularly good, breakfast ok AC in room is effective but noisy. Ceiling fan not used. Towels worn/grey in appearance No shower gel

This place is really lovely and the staff are very friendly and polite. Electrics are a little dodgy as are the fire safety standards. An electrical fire occurred at around 4am in my friend’s room. Neither the smoke alarm or the sprinklers worked. Fortunately my friends woke up and got out of the room. They alerted the hotel staff who ambled down and then tried to put the fire out with an empty fire extinguisher. Eventually, they turned off the electrics and put the fire out with water. Electrics in our adjoining room kept going off after that. Air con and fridge stopped working completely.

Reception staff helpful and gracious. This hotel was booked by my tour operator instead of the one I had asked for, maybe as the other hotel was full. This I can grade as a 3 star hotel, the room was lovely, had a balcony but was warned not to leave the balcony door open when going out due to monkeys. The swimming pool was good but cold, I Did not use it. Only 6 deckchairs and when I asked for some more the *** said they don’t have anymore. I have to say the hotels must have a thing with bathrooms and grouts as even this had the same issue. Cracked tiles and grout mouldy etc. if you didn’t have the fan on then there was a drainy smell in the bathroom. No safe, oldish looking cupboard which we did not use. Bottled water left every day. Still out of the Abad group of hotels we were happy staying here. Would rate this a 3 star hotel.

I loved staying at Abad Hotels in Kerala, and the Green Forest Resort was no exception. Apart from some minor short-lived problems acquainting myself with operating the shower & shutting the balcony door, I really liked this place. It was removed from the bustle of the town, close to all tourist sites & there was a calm & peaceful view across their grounds. The staff were efficient & welcoming & spoke good English, & the buffet food was great. Overall, a relaxing & pleasant experience & I'd definitely stay again.
