A Beautiful, well manicured place. Wonderful views from the room balcony itself, Homely food served with a big smile. You need not call for a second helping, it is their before you realise it. The fragrance of cardamom floats in the air. Best Part is the warm hospitality that comes straight from the heart. A must stay place if you... More

I am sorry more people have not written supporting comments related to the Windermere Estate hotel. Admittedly the hotel is low key and perhaps one feels a bit like being a guest in someone's home although left to do exactly as you wish. This is more a matter of size as the hotel has perhaps only twenty rooms but everything... More

OK, I've stayed in perhaps some of the greatest hotels in the World. Claridge’s in London, the Ritz Carlton Moscow, Montreux Palace, Umaid Bhawan Palace etc. etc. The Windermere isn't like any of these hotels, but that doesn’t mean its not great. Yes, its humble, a little old-school, but that what makes it the place it is. The service is... More

Our group were welcomed by a member of this family owned hotel and given lots of information about the hotel. There is a lovely dining room, with a few tables outside. They serve delicious food here, the best we had in Kerala. There is not a huge choice but I enjoyed everything served to me, not too spicy and various... More

After a wonderful welcome from the owners family we were taken to our lovely accommodation which was clean and spacious. It is a peaceful haven of a coffee and cardomom plantation set amongst tea plantations quite high in the western ghats. All of the staff were friendly, it is well kept and my opinion is that i loved every minute... More

Overall happy with the Winderemere resort. The location is a must for anyone travelling to Munnar as you can spend a whole day wondering round the grounds and taking nice pictures. The 2 hr complimentary plantation walk, tip - trainers are good, walking boots are even better. The on site tea shop was greatfor an afternoon drink, but I would... More

The view from our huge room and balcony was unobstructed but as another poster said, make sure you ask for a room that is not next to the construction project close by or you will be disappointed. No alcohol is served at this property.

We were warmly welcomed and were soon established in a very spacious first floor room with a double aspect balcony with fabulous views over the tea plantations. Excellent set dinners, but could be a problem for those wanting a more European cuisine. Extensive grounds to roam around, and although there is no pool (probably too cool most of the time)... More
