One of the best stay ever. Nothing like Indian hotels and their hospitality, especially Carlton, kodaikanal. As a little girl I have been to Kodai many times and had told myself that I would come back to stay here as an adult. So it was a dream come true for me to stay with my parents and my teenage daughter. They loved it here as well. The Lakeview from every room is stunning. Right from the manager to the security, everyone served with a smile. Especially Anand who take care of us personally with everything from boat ride to bike ride to travel details. The spa was lovely as well. Not to mention the fanatstic buffet for breakfast and dinner. I will surely be back with the rest of the family.

We recently stayed at The Carlton, Kodaikanal for 4 days to celebrate our daughter’s 1st birthday, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was exceptional—far beyond anything we’ve experienced elsewhere. The restaurant staff (especially Mr Ravi) and all housekeeping staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and went out of their way to make our baby girl feel special. The birthday decorations and arrangements exceeded all our expectations. A highlight for us was having the Vice President, Dr. Rajkumar Raman, personally join our celebration, which made the occasion even more memorable. Every little detail was thoughtfully planned, from a beautiful welcome letter for our daughter to a birthday card signed by all the staff. These personal touches turned our stay into a lifetime memory. A special thanks to Miss Simran, whose support, kindness, and attention to detail made everything even more perfect. She truly went above and beyond for us. We can’t thank The Carlton team enough for making our daughter’s first birthday so magical. Highly recommended for anyone looking for impeccable service and unforgettable experiences!
