i dont want to for away from town for security reasons
can some one help to get right hotel in munnar.

If you want a hotel bang inside town and yet feel isolated from the traffic and noise with an estate feel and no concrete buildings, it is Eastend. I stayed there 3 years back and it is good. It is economical too.

If you want a bit more of mountain feel and yet not venture away too far
for security reasons it is Copper castle, situated just 1 km away from the town bustand, on a mountain with a wonderfull view. A bit costly though.

so i tell what dmk wants -

good , clean family type accommodation (vegetarian strict - no drinks allowed - dmk will get his own sherbet) in the centre of munnar town - if AC room is there - good - should be in the range of rupees 2500 -3000 maximum per day for family - and trekking we will do ourselves - thank you.

Suri, how did you guess ?

Just want to let everyone know that this place is very different. The beauty about this place is that this club is more than a century old and many of the rules set during the British days are still followed. One might get reminded of school, but it was fun to comply. The cottages are also very old and have lot of furniture, photographs, curios etc. In one of the lounges they have displayed lot of old trophies, stuffed deer heads, other game trophies etc - A must see.

Things to know about HRC:

• They have a Saturday dinner where Plantation Managers, Estate Owners etc socialise - nice setting, great food, interesting people, so had a great time when I went there with family (my second time at HRC). So, if you are planning a weekend, just make sure you carry an odd coat/blazer and shoes. When I went with my offroaders group, we avoided this party altogether and made a back door entrance. That we were in no state to attend the party inspite of carrying a blazer and shoes all the way is another story. But even in that state, we felt like respecting the Club's rules. That itself says something about the club's charm.
  
• Also, you cannot be seen in shorts/bermudas/three-fourths in places like the lounge, dining hall etc. You will get a friendly warning

EDIT: Saw Rajiv's post. I took a long time (between work) to compose this post. Good to know you liked the place Rajiv - old world charm indeed.

Nice indeed. They seem to be a tad shy about their tariff though...
