Location and area
The hotel sits at Bypass Junction in Kalpetta, the headquarters of Wayanad district in North Kerala. Kalpetta is 1000 m from the centre of Kalpetta, about 10 minutes on foot. Wayanad is a plateau in the north east, reached by a hairpin climb from the Malabar coast, with coffee and pepper under the trees rather than tea on open slopes. The destination is older than the tourist map: the Edakkal petroglyphs are neolithic.
Who it suits
This hotel suits travellers who want a functional, well located base in Kalpetta with essential facilities like air conditioning, WiFi, parking and a restaurant. It is a good match for those planning to explore Wayanad's hills, including Edakkal, Thirunelli and the Jain temple at Sultan Bathery, all within an hour of each other. It does not suit visitors looking for a luxury resort or a quiet retreat, as it is on a junction and geared towards practicality. The forest border with Karnataka and Tamil Nadu makes it a convenient stop for nature trips, but not for a secluded getaway.
When to visit
The best season to visit Wayanad is from September to May. The ghat road is the weak point in heavy rain, so travel can be affected during the monsoon. Plan your stay accordingly, and note that the hotel's location in Kalpetta makes it a handy base for day trips to nearby attractions. The altitude ranges from 700 to 2,100 m, so expect cooler weather in the hills.
