Chamundi Hill Palace

A family hill palace on Nadukani in Kottayam: Kerala Ayurveda in the house Saroja Thampi opened, yoga morning and evening, and rooms that look over the mist.

Our read

Chamundi Hill Palace is worth the journey because the stay is a family house on Nadukani hill with a resident doctor and a printed daily rhythm, not because Kottayam needed another Ayurveda clinic by the road.

Come here for

  • Travellers who will leave Kochi for a hill palace, two therapies a day, and yoga morning and evening, not a beach hotel with oil
  • Adults who can live with a vegetarian Ayurvedic kitchen, a doctor-led programme, and a stay measured in weeks rather than a weekend
  • People who want the house Saroja opened, the rooms as they print them, and the lookout over the Kottayam hills

Skip it if

  • You want a one-night hotel, a beach, or a stay with no medical programme. The printed programmes run from a week to 28 days.
  • You want a spa list you can pick from at the desk. Treatments are prescribed by the resident doctor.

We’d rather send you somewhere else than send you somewhere that doesn’t suit you.
