Built in 1950, the Aranya Nivas is a KTDC property and in fact the only one in Thekkady inside the Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary. The deep woods surrounding the hotel makes the hotel appear more in tune with nature. The stone walls compliment the growing creepers, wild flowers and the hustle and bustle of the monkeys, squirrels and thousands of birds around the place. The resort has a multi-cuisine restaurant, a little towards the inside on the lobby level for about 50 persons. The restaurant is bright and airy and overlooks the swimming pool on one side and the forest on the other. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and serves both buffet and a la carte meals.
