Filed under Mermaid Hotel
Munnar is situated at the confluence of three mountain streams – the Mudrapuzha, Nallathanni and Kundala.
Lying 1600 metres above sea level, this hill station was once the summer resort of the British Government in
South India. Sprawling tea plantations, picture book towns, and winding lanes make this a popular resort town.
Among the exotic flora found in the forests and grasslands here is Neelakurinji. This flower, which baths the hills in blue every twelve years, is due to bloom again in 2006. Munnar also has the highest peak in South India, Anamudi, which towers over 2695 metres and is an ideal spot for trekking.
Whether you are visiting Kerala, or you are here on business, we do our utmost to make your stay a pleasant and memorable one.
