Detailed Reviews
Me and my wife went for 3D2N honeymoon trip. The stay was really wonderful. On Day 1, we reached very late in the afternoon due to traffic, but the manager Mr Mani ensured that we were served delicious food as per our choice at our room itself. We were given a warm welcome by the hotel staffs.
The room was very clean and tidy with all the necessary amenities required. The surroundings were quiet and the place is just 5 min drive from Kodaikanal Lake.
Particular mention about the food - This hotel uses the veggies from their own organic farm and you will feel the taste of your mom's kitchen. The staffs are humble and well mannered. I would like to thank Mr Mani & his staffs for taking care of us well during the stay. I will definitely recommend to my dear ones.

We stayed for 3D/2N, they arranged from pickup / drop to railway station with 3 day tour, they planned very well the entire stay. We enjoyed the view of Kodai to the fullest, the room was neat including the toiletries, the view from room is good surrounded with green mountain, the breakfast is normal south indian dishes and taste are good, the restaurant is maintained well, the delivery of food is delay, if its 100% occupancy - waiting is 35mins to 45mins, Non-peak time it tok only 15mins to deliver, which is a good sign... food is yummy and many people like their food.

I'd been staying in Altius nest for a couple of years during my vacation. The hotel is very clean, calm, and spacious, with enough light in the rooms. The bed sheets are very clean. Their quality of complimentary breakfast is very good and delicious too and it's definitely value for money.
Dinner is very decent and at a reasonable price.
I found a small concern, we stayed for 2 days, and there was no room service provided for making the bed and replacing the tea, coffee, sugar, etc.. or cleaning the toilet. May be, if we would have asked, they would have provided I guess.

We stayed here for 2 nights in Dec last week and the place was very neat and clean. The staffs were very helpful and the hotel is about a KM distance from the lake.
The complimentory breakfast was good and the resturant serves tasty food (need to order 30 mins in advance). I booked the room through phone just the night before and Mr.Kishore promptly confirmed my booking within the next 30 mins.
My family liked the ambience very much.
Overall, a nice stay at a very reasonable price.

We booked it for 3nights.
In chilling season lot of power failures, generators were not effective to cover geyser and room heaters. You will have to call them repeatedly for basic facilities. After all these discomfort they charged for room heater when the power was not available for entire night. Challenge in getting hot water, Only ambience is good rest is terrible.

Pocket Friendly and a decent stay in Kodaikanal. The place is very neat and clean. If you are particular about view then this hotel wouldn’t be the best choice. In terms of safety and within the town range hotels, this one definitely tops the charts. Was very satisfied with my stay. It could get a bit tricky to stay here during extreme winters as the rooms tends to retain a lot of cold but otherwise the amenities, service and food is very nice.
