    stunning views
    overwhelmed staff
    slow service

    The luxury suite offered stunning views.

    My experience at The Tamara was incredibly disappointing. The staff was overwhelmed and the service was extremely slow. I couldn't believe my room wasn't ready until the exact check-in time, especially after traveling all night. It felt very unaccommodating, and the breakfast was not complimentary, which I thought should be standard. Spending a significant amount for a stay with no engaging activities made this visit feel like a waste of money.

    easy access to stunning landmarks and serene park views

    During our stay, we were thrilled to be just over a kilometer from Kodaikanal Lake, perfect for a delightful stroll, and enjoyed easy access to the Fairy Falls, where the refreshing views mesmerized us after a pleasant walk through the lush surroundings. the hotel also offers a cozy atmosphere ideal for couples like us, making our weekend getaway special.

    impeccable service
    culinary excellence
    noisy guests
    housekeeping delays
    minor interruptions

    A stunning retreat with impeccable service made for a memorable stay. The staff, especially Mr Hari and Chef Ranjit, went above and beyond, ensuring every need was met with a smile. The grilled dishes were exceptionally delicious, showcasing culinary excellence. However, the disturbances from noisy guests interrupted our relaxation at times, and slight delays in housekeeping were noted.
