My family decided to go to the hills to beat the Chennai heat in May. I was looking for a good place to relax for a couple of days and did a lot of looking around for a few weeks. Finally I decided on 3 places out of which one was Dalethorpe. 5 days before I could travel I decided... More

This place is average at its best. We stayed in deluxe room which is supposed to be a tad larger than the Standard room. We did not find anything great about the hotel or the rooms. And given than Kodai has an amazing reputation for powercuts, this hotel sees on an average of 9hours of no-power in a day; and... More

Dalethorpe's quaint beauty and Shaheed bhai's hospitality coax us time and again to retreat to dalethorpe for a well deserved break from work.Its locales with the backforests, well manicured , spacious gardens, clean rooms are recommendable. The kitchen staff and the owner himself (shaheed bhai) are always at our behest serving sumptious meals.Special mention to the soft idli's, hot dosa's... More

It was my first trip to Kodaikanal with ten of my friends and turned out to be a great experience with the kind of hospitality, accommodation,service, food that we got in this home stay..Very well cleaned cottages surrounded by greeneries, badminton court.Hope I will visit once again within this year..

I was scooting thru' various options of Resorts and Homestays in Kodaikanal and found this place to be interesting.. Since it was my 1st wedding anniversary i took extra cautions to make sure its the right place to stay.. We opted for THE SUITE COTTAGES in Dalethorpe and we booked it online.. On arrival at this place we both admired... More

On reaching the place we were pretty much impressed by the outward appearence as it looks exactly like what you see in the photographs. We had 2 rooms booked but even after 1we waited for 3 hours we dint get the 2nd room as there were people vacating the room and cleaning was going on. We dumped all our baggages... More

We had our reservations coming to this place, after all the unpleasant experiences we had in the madurai hotel, with no heater and poor service. But all our worries were put to rest. It was a home away from home. Just perfect ! The rooms, the hospitality, the food and the warmth , it all just made our trip to... More
