Happy stay, memorable dosa ☺️
Reviewed By sivananthamnComfortable stay of 2 nights. Morning breakfast we liked very much. Mr Kathiravan especially made both mornings a delight with his skills of making podi dosai and other kinds of dosais. All of us enjoyed! The theme of family suite and the neighborhood was quite good, picturesque!

Overlooking the plush green valley and neat terraced gardens appears the most unusual architecture – an entire hotel in the shape of a ship, a leaf-shaped accommodation block, a lotus-shaped business block, and an array of dome-shaped rooms.

6. Lilly's Valley Resort
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 946 reviews
Lilly’s Valley is a uniquely beautiful resort set amid terraced gardens on three acres of wooded land, ringed by towering eucalyptus trees. Its 21 traditional stone cottages are constructed in the colonial British style, with handcrafted woodwork details throughout. It is the rare resort with an eco-focus and no concrete structures: even the furniture is lovingly made by hand by talented craftsmen! Built in 1982, Lilly’s Valley was the first resort in Kodaikanal. Our stone-and-wood cottages, both free-standing and attached, can accommodate couples, small and large family groups, students, and corporate groups. We are located in a quiet suburban neighborhood exactly 2 km from the center of town and the lake. With a short taxi ride or 15-minute walk, you’ll be in the heart of shopping, boating, horse-riding, roller-skating and other tourist attractions. Our style is low-key and customized to you: you can order simple, tasty Western and South Indian dishes from the kitchen, and hold gatherings in the garden gazebo with your own music and programs. We’ll even arrange a cozy night bonfire! We have special rates for long-term stays of one week or more, up to a 50% discount. Discounts are also available for weekdays. Many repeat customers, both Indian and foreign, have been coming here for decades, drawn back by the beauty, peacefulness, and cozy cottages. One Italian child born in one of our cottages returned 25 years later with her husband to stay in the same cottage!

Third class hotel in a cool "jhopadpatti" called Kodaikanal
Reviewed By Rahul ODear Sir, My family: Rahul Oturkar – Room 301, 302 My friend's family: Mililnd Shewale – Room S6, S8. stayed in hill country resorts Kodaikanal from 29.05.2022 to 01.06.2022. I would like to provide feedback to you on our stay: 1. Where is your reception? After our cars arrived at the resort, we had to struggle to find the front desk because nobody was there at the arrival front gate of the resort. How can you have your front desk deep inside somewhere, very difficult to find, no person or sign boards to guide guests to the reception. 2. Unpleasant/rude/arrogant behaviour of reception person We had paid over Rs. 80000 in advance for our stay. Many people may be paying more than this. We were two families requiring 4 rooms nearby each other, but that does not mean your receptionist should humiliate us by saying “sir, you booked standard room sir. You will get the room which is available” As if we are beggars to book a standard room and to get a better treatment we should have booked a high end room. 3. Common sense a. Any person (barring local people) arriving in your resort could arrive only in afternoon after a long drive either from Coimbatore of Madurai or nearby hill station Munnar, anybody would expect good nice food. We could get just snacks because restaurant was closed. That is also fine but the person in the restaurant was in so hurry that before we could say what we wanted, he was assuming what we wanted and was writing the same. When we said, not this but this dish, there was a visible irritation on his face. He thought we should order what he wanted to serve not what we wanted. b. All the service providers in the restaurant were sleepy at all times looking tired, waiting for customer to finish and go. Customers come to you for relaxing and eat leisurely not to hurry. c. We were in total 8 people. Common sense says, that 8 glasses of water should be provided. Everytime, we had to tell your people because on a table of 8, there were only 2 glasses. Even after telling they provided repeatedly 1 glass less and we had to remind again to provide the last glass. d. No table was anytime ready with cutlery, salt, black pepper, butter, sugar bags, etc… These are required by each customer everytime he sits to eat breakfast. Each time when we asked for salt, it came in big bowl which generally is used for cornflakes and milk. Who will require salt in such high quantity? e. Grilled bread slices were kept in a container which is used to keep sambar or other things warm. The bread slices became like rubber due to the steam. Your people don’t have common sense that bread toast can be made and eaten fresh so that bread remains crispy. Instead they keep rubbery bread toast and forget the essential cutlery on table. A complete lack of common sense. f. Buffet dinner is the most convenient way of dining in any restaurant attached to a resort. Your people served the buffet only on 29th May. 30th and 31st May, we had to order ala-carte where the captain messed up everything. He is always in a hurry to write the order before we actually said what we wanted to order. If we asked do you have sambar rice, he would say yes and before we could say anything he would just write down that. Finally we had to tell him, “boss, wait….. let us confirm”. And he would get annoyed. Does your restaurant have a rule “if you ask if sambar rice is available, you have to order it”. Is there such rule? g. Quality of food particularly the sandwiches were very bad. Each sandwich had two slices of cucumber and two slices of tomato. No green chutney, no butter, no tomato ketchup on bread slices. Is this the way you make sandwich? Overall, I rate common sense of your staff as a BIG ZERO. 4. Room service/Houskeeping a. No towels were provided in S6 and S8 rooms. Mr. Milind Shewale had to call many times to get the towels b. Room no. 302 was not provided with cup for making coffee and glass for drinking water. After reminding several times and informing about the bad service, cups were provided on 31.05.2022 evening. Very very bad service. c. How to call other rooms from one room? No information written on the phone. If a group checks in (like we did) how do we know how to call to other rooms? d. Sufficient amount of coffee, tea and sugar bags were not provided. When you charge so high, what is the problem in providing few extra bags? e. Tata Sky satellite tv was not fully recharged. Channel which could be seen in one room was not available in other room and vice-versa. Many desirable very common news channels, movie channels were not subscribed. Can’t you spend the small amount of subscription (may be Rs. 1000 per month) when you charge Rs. 6000 per day? Why do you behave like “kanjus”? 5. No mobile signal/No Wifi a. I have never seen any hotel in past 15 years which don’t have wifi. b. Your hotel is different. You have wifi only in reception. c. When there is no mobile signal in any of rooms of your resort, why don’t you provide a strong wifi in every room? For what do you charge Rs. 6000 per night? Can you afford even a wifi? d. If all people who stay in resort come to reception for wifi, can your reception accommodate so many people? e. Can’t your hotel or resort lobby work with prominent mobile companies to get a tower fixed on one of the mountains to get a clear mobile signal? 6. Games room a. The table tennis table net was broken, the rackets were broken, tennis balls were of low grade, the books were in locked condition, the magazines were from year 2013. b. Do you read 9 year old magazines? c. We were told you have a snooker table at time of checkin, we did not find it and when enquired at reception, he said, “we don’t have”. False promises made. d. Other board games did not have the tools to play. Dice had numbers erased, snake ladder game had no coins, etc… Only game working properly was carrom which only 4 people can play. What should rest people do? 7. Check out a. We already informed reception on 31.05.2022 evening that we will check out on 01.06.2022 early morning 6.15am. b. Accordingly we reached reception at 6.05am, paid the bills for food. c. Receptionist present at that time informed staff to take the luggage to the car immediate at 6.10am. After this the luggage came at 6.45am. The reason for delay was that the staff was “checking the room”. What is there to check in the room? What is there to steal from your room? Do you think we will steak something? We will steal towels or bedsheets? d. Ultimately I carried by big bag to the vehicle because I had to reach Madurai airport. e. Other luggage still came at 6.45. Total waste of time. Your restaurant people are in a hurry that we eat and go fast, but your other staff is so relaxing that they do each work very very reluctantly. Because I am used to stay in various hotels in India and abroad, I thought your resort was just a third grade hotel with a simple room, some hot water, no television, no good service, no mobile signal, no wifi, no good restaurant, no good supporting and friendly staff; actually the staff keeps waiting for tip money after they bought towels, cups, water and carrying luggage. I have clicked some pictures of room 301 and 302 where there was no cleaning done, lot of dust was there. Some pictures where you have light on television and not on mirror. Zero common sense. Hill country resort Kodai has only advantage: cool climate. Otherwise there nothing great about your resort. Just another hotel with cool climate. Hire some good staff who has experience in “hospitality”. I have pledged, I will never visit Kodai, or Ooty because it’s a cold “jhopadpatti” with narrow roads, bad roads, too many cars, too much smell of diesel and kerosene mix, too much crowded, too many traffic jams, bad hotels like hill country and car drivers who just want money and not give service. Totally disappointed.

If you are in Highland Shoreline, You can experience, how it feels to dream with your eyes open. A Swimming pool with island style chatting hut centered in lushy grass bushy surroundings. It is perched cozily in the laps of Mother Nature and amongst a picturesque backdrop. Our Resort is a peaceful destination far away from the hustle bustle of the city, yet close enough to be visited easily.
Pathetic and dirty
Reviewed By PravTripsHad not seen a single happy customer, almost everyone complaining and fighting at the reception all time. They dont care about customer service but only of minting money by other taxi services and dinner. The Room telephones are not working, older cupboards, old CRT TVs (bad to watch after used to latest LED/LCD TVs), no towels, dirty pillow covers, for any request at the desk they will just say will send room service, but no one had got any room service. Breakfast starts at 8:30am but bread or tea will be provided late, For breakfast they provide two items ony Idli is good, upma is bad. Road from the tar road to the hotel is narrower and if any yellow board taxi enters they never go back even if its of 1 meter but others had to go back for 100+ meters. Avoid it otherwise will regret later.

A perfect resort for a quiet, peaceful and a relaxed stay.
Reviewed By Veepy5One of the best properties of country club in india. Located in a picturesque and quiet place, valley vista is perfect for the laid back and relaxed holiday weekend. The rooms are spacious and well laid out. The staff is very courteous and service is impeccable. Ample parking space as well. The only negative is the short drive path which leads to the resort is a slightly broken road... so low floor vehicles need to be a bit careful while traversing it.

Elephant valley is the last settlement on the border of the National Forest which extends into wildlife sanctuaries of Kerala. It is uniquely situated on an elephant migration route that is centuries old. This land and the rivers we share with local people blessed with prestigious vegetal and animal species including: native birds, leopards, deer, bison and elephants. Its remoteness allowed it to escape the ravages of 'modern' chemical agriculture.
In the heart of Nature!
Reviewed By Jyo_Chane123Elephant Valley Resort is true to its name! Nestled amidst the flora and fauna of Kodaikanal is this beautiful resort where you are closest to the nature. Avocado trees, pepper & coffee plantations, fig trees, fresh water stream, breathtaking views of the misty mountain peaks….. you name it and it is all there. Waking up each morning to the chirping of the birds is an icing on the cake. The wooden log cabins are aesthetically designed and well maintained. Breakfast spread and all other meals are delectable and organically sourced. Mani, Subbu and his team ensured we had a wonderful stay. A BIG THANK YOU to the team at Elephant Valley Resort.
