I have registered with the forum today to find out what options I have to find 3 star hotels in Kodaikanal. I will be going to Kodaikanal with my wife and three children so we would require two double bedrooms. We would also like the hotel to have some kind of lawn where we can sit as a family in the mornings or evening.
Did a bit of search and found Hotel Kodai International 17 / 328, Lawsghat Road | Kodaikanal, Kodaikanal 624101, India seems the best in terms of sprawling lawns and has received several great reviews. There is yet another where one can lounge in the lawn and that is Woody's Hotel Near fire station | 4/17 /70 Convent Road, Kodaikanal
