The Planet Munnar is a four star hotel outside Munnar in the Idukki district of South Kerala. It sits 18.3 km from the centre of Munnar and holds a guest score of 4.9 out of 5 from 766 reviews. The outdoor pool and full service approach decide whether it is right for you: it rewards guests who want a resort style base with a restaurant and round the clock staffing, rather than a location in the town itself.
What The Planet Munnar Lists
The Planet Munnar is a four star hotel, and the facilities it lists are those of a full service property. An outdoor pool sits at the centre of a stay here, with a restaurant on site, so meals and leisure do not require leaving the grounds. Free WiFi and free parking are provided. The front desk and security are both staffed around the clock, and currency exchange and laundry are available.
Family rooms and non smoking rooms are among the room types listed. That combination of pool, restaurant, family rooms and 24 hour services points to a stay built around the property itself rather than a quick overnight stop. A guest score of 4.9 out of 5 from 766 reviews is on file, and it is high enough to suggest that the listed services are delivered consistently. No other facilities are listed.
Where The Hotel Sits
The hotel is outside Munnar, in the wider Idukki district. The setting is inland hill country, and the address places it at Suryanelli. Munnar itself is a town in Idukki district, a tourism hub, and it is the nearest town to the property. The distance is exact: 18.3 km from the centre of Munnar.
That gap defines the stay. You are not in Munnar; you are in the countryside beyond it, within the same district and the same South Kerala region. The centre of Munnar, with its services and its role as a tourism hub, is 18.3 km away. The property's own restaurant and pool therefore carry more weight than they would at an address in town, because the surrounding area is rural and the hotel is the obvious base.
Who It Suits And Who It Does Not
The Planet Munnar suits guests who want a four star property with a pool and a restaurant as the centre of the stay, and who are content to be outside Munnar rather than in it. Families are well served by the family rooms and the round the clock front desk. It does not suit anyone who needs to be in the centre of Munnar: 18.3 km separates the hotel from the town, and that is the fact that decides the booking.
Planning A Stay At The Planet Munnar
Before booking, confirm directly with the property what your room includes and how the restaurant and pool operate during your dates. The listing gives the facilities but not the details behind them, and it gives no check in or check out times. Ask about room types with the front desk. Also confirm how currency exchange and laundry are handled, and whether parking needs to be reserved, since availability can change by season.
