What the property offers
Oyo 9531 Hotel Highrange Inn is a two star hotel. The guest score is 3.7 out of 5 from 447 reviews. For a two star property in a hill town, that score suggests the basics are handled consistently and that most guests leave satisfied without expecting more than the category promises.
The only facility listed is breakfast. For a stay in Munnar, that means you start the day on site with a meal before heading out to the tea estates or the park. Everything else about your day, from lunch to dinner to how you fill the hours, is something you arrange yourself. The hotel keeps its offer simple.
Where it sits
The hotel is on the Kochi Madurai Highway in Munnar, a town in Idukki district, in South Kerala. Munnar is a tourism hub, which means the town has the services and traffic that come with visitors. The property is 800 m from the centre of Munnar, about 10 minutes on foot.
The destination is Munnar itself, a hill area that runs from 1,500 to 2,695 m. Tea grows from 1,500 m up to the grassland, laid over hills the Scots planted in the 1880s. Anamudi, the highest point in India south of the Himalaya, sits on the eastern edge at 2,695 m. Being inland, the air is cool and the mornings can be sharp.
Who it suits
This hotel suits travellers who want a simple, well located base in Munnar and are content with breakfast as the only meal provided. It does not suit anyone looking for a full service stay with meals and leisure facilities on site, because the hotel lists none of those. The 3.7 score from 447 reviews suggests it meets expectations for its category, not that it exceeds them.
Planning a stay
Come between September and May. The heavy monsoon months bring closed in cloud and landslip risk, which can disrupt plans in the hills. January mornings frost here, ninety kilometres from a tropical lagoon, so pack for cold starts. Eravikulam, the Nilgiri tahr park, is a short drive and closes for calving in February and March. The estate roads are the best walking in the state, and almost nobody walks them.
