Arrived at the end of the monsoon and was struck as to how green and clean the area was. Warmly welcomed by the staff at Cardimom. The rooms were comfortable but they did feel slightly damp but then the whole area was damp with monsoon rain for several hours each day and much of each night. We were disappointed by... More

We stayed at Cardamom Club for two nights and whished we would have stayed longer. It is located inside a cardamom and coffee plantation with a few cottages for the guests, just outside of Kumily, about 15 minutes by rickshaw on a bumpy road. You might not be able to easily go out to a restaurant, but the food at... More

After the initial shock of the five hour taxi ride you wind your way up a single lane track deeper into the plantations of Thekadi, the air is clear, India's endless cacophony of horns and neck jarring displacements comes to an end. You arrive at The Cardamom Club and are greeted like visiting members of the family. The staff are... More

We stayed for two nights, but having arrived in the dark, and then gone on an jeep safari before it got light, we didn't see the beautiful setting until the end of our first day. We could just have stayed on the site, watched and listened to the birds, wandered around the cardamom plantation and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food... More

Before arriving to this hotel we spent two weeks at Kovalam beach, which was a hot place. Therefore we were bit shocked when we arrived to Thekkady as in the mountain area the temperatures were lower. The rooms felt pretty cold during the night time but they had good blankets so we did sleep very well. Next time we'll bring... More

We booked a 3 night stay here from the UK,.in February 2011. The description on the internet sounded idyllic, & there were good reviews (but all were written in 2009) but the reality was quite different. Although this hotel has a fantastic tropical setting, surrounded by trees visited by an amazing range of birds, the bungalow style rooms, which are... More

We arrived at Cardamom Club after a long winding ride in an Ambassador car from Munnar, we were greeted by a couteous staff and the big suprise came when while signing in they told us that we had been upgraded to a cottage suite. The suite was nice, with a living room, hallway, bedroom with comfortable beds and lots of... More

My partner and I stayed at the Cardamom Club early January and thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay - although we would have stayed longer if time permitted! Our mountain view room had everything we needed - plus beautiful views of the plantation from the balcony/deck area. The shower was fabulous, just what we needed after spending the two previous...

Yes the coffee is the Best in India!!!!!!!!!! Everyone was spot on and I hope to one day go back and... More

Lets start with the good stuff - great location...its really away from the hustle of Thekady Town...beautiful scenic surroundings where you would get up to the sounds of birds...the rooms are very well kept (though very basic)...so all in all its a beautiful place bad stuff - the food is strictly the only thing which i dont think too many...
