Yagappa Heritage Resort

Yagappa Heritage Resort

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed in a comfortable and spacious Deluxe Room, with a peaceful and pleasant ambience that was perfect for relaxing both mind and body. The staff at the front desk and in the restaurant were exceptionally friendly, courteous, and attentive, making the experience even more pleasant. I had opted for the AP plan (All meals included – Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner) and the food was absolutely outstanding. Every meal was rich in flavour, generously portioned, beautifully prepared, and thoughtfully served, making dining a real highlight of the stay. The lavatory was relatively very small, and room cleanliness has to be improved. Other than this, the overall stay was truly excellent. "

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Kodaikanal

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Kodaikanal is during February, March, and August, when hotel prices are generally lower. For a comprehensive exploration of the region's historical and cultural landmarks, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. This period allows visitors to enjoy the serene lake, lush forests, and picturesque waterfalls, as well as partake in activities like boating and hiking. Additionally, exploring local temples and monuments will enrich your experience, making it great value for money while delving into the area's rich heritage.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To explore last-minute deals to Kodaikanal, you may begin by checking the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you're likely to find discounted hotel rates close to your travel date. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to stay informed about flash sales and special promotions, ensuring you don't miss potential savings. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, helping you make informed decisions. If prices drop or rooms become available, you'll be promptly notified, increasing your chances of securing a great last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate due to factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could potentially help you save on your stay at a hotel in Kodaikanal. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we will suggest alternative dates that could be more affordable, helping you to secure the best deal possible.
  4. Consider your location: Staying nearer to key attractions or city centres may provide convenience, but it often comes with elevated costs. For more affordable options, you might consider hotels in less central areas or neighbourhoods, striking a balance between price and accessibility to the sites you intend to visit. Additionally, exploring independent hotels situated further out may offer a more authentic and budget-friendly experience, as they usually tend to be cheaper.
