In Thekkady-The Elephant Court Periyar
-
The Elephant Court -The
Elephant Court is an understated, elegant hospitality experience, both, for
business and recreation. A pair of impassive, miniature elephants watch, as
demure sari clad hostesses greet guests with jasmine garlands.The hotel is
situated on four acres, over a landscaped hillock. The architecture establishes
the cultural identity of the property and is a marriage of traditional design
and responses to contemporary demands. It explores the relationship between the
environment and individuals. The extensive use of teak all around keeps the
spaces cool and one’s senses are calmed by the connection with nature that wood
provides. Subtle definitions of space provide a serene, yet dynamic environment.
