Violet Woods is a three star hotel on Byson Valley Road in Munnar, 4.5 km from the centre of the town, in Idukki district. It has a cafe and restaurant, a garden and picnic area, and scores 4.2 out of 5 from 320 reviews. The thing that decides whether it suits you is simple: it is a hillside base, not a town centre one.

What Violet Woods provides

Violet Woods is a three star property with a guest score of 4.2 out of 5 from 320 reviews. On site there is a cafe and a restaurant, and special diet menus can be arranged. Rooms include family rooms and non smoking rooms, and some have a balcony.

Practical things are covered: free WiFi, free parking, a 24 hour front desk and 24 hour security, express check in, luggage storage and laundry. Bicycle hire, car hire and a shuttle service help you get around. Outside there is a garden and a picnic area, and room service is available.

Where the hotel sits

The address is Byson Valley Road, Ottamaram, Munnar 685612, in Idukki district, South Kerala. Violet Woods is 4.5 km from the centre of Munnar, a town in Idukki district and a tourism hub.

Munnar is the destination itself, a hill setting at 1,500 to 2,695 m. Tea grows from 1,500 metres 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 metres. The 4.5 km from the centre of Munnar places the hotel outside the busiest streets.

Who should book here

Violet Woods suits travellers with their own vehicle or a willingness to use the car hire and shuttle service, and families who want family rooms, a garden and a picnic area. It also suits anyone content to be 4.5 km from the centre of Munnar. It does not suit people who want to be in the middle of town, or who need a location with everything within a few steps.

When to plan a stay

September to May is the season to aim for. The heavy monsoon months bring closed-in cloud and landslip risk, so plan around them. January mornings here frost, ninety kilometres from a tropical lagoon. Eravikulam, the Nilgiri tahr park, is a short drive and closes for calving in February and March.
