Sterling Resort, Munnar
Chinna Kanal Village, (via) Surianelli, Munnar, Kerala

Its location is the usp for this resort; as for the quality of service is concerned,it is not so up to the mark (need improvements). Food at the resort was missing the local delicacies.

Sunset view from the room really stood out and made a difference to our stay.And i would like to come back in near future to enjoy the same again & again.

room service was not so prompt as expected from a three start service provider, rest all was ok.

The calmly & discreetly, situated amidst the pleasantly serene roads of chinnakannal about 20 kms distance from the munnar town, the sterling resorts is a wonderfully relaxing place for the vacationers. the resort has almost all the basic amenities that every vacationer would necessarily require.. I mean lovely rooms best suited for small / big families and the honey-mooners, safe deposit lockers, library, banquet hall, indoor games, kiddies club & kiddies outdoor play area, conference hall, shopping mall etc.

The munnar sterling resort is situated in idukki district (kerala) roughly about 20 kms from the munnar town. The resort has quite an easy access by road and the travelers could use auto-rickshaws or a taxi. the best aspect of the hotel our family loved was the restaurant named “aanai para” which serves tasty aappam-stew, chakka pradaman and many other variety of kerala food. especially the puttu & kolambu are exceptionally tasty and worth for our money! every room has a hall with television, double or single bedrooms, kitchen well equipped with hot-plate, pressure cooker, crockery, knife, plates etc. we cooked our food sometimes by ourselves.. (and saved some money for more of sight seeing??!!). if you wish to be indoors to enjoy the stay and relax yourself, you also have the option of hiring dvd player from the resort management. the resort also arranges cheap sight-seeing tours (half-day or full-day) and you would be informed about the same on daily basis over interc

The only difficulty we faced in the resort in our family room was right from the day we stepped into the room, the geyser was not working properly in one of the washrooms. though we had two washrooms, since we were a bigger family it was unmanageable. every time they repaired the water-heater, again it would stop working and we had to call the room service, which did spoil our holiday mood at times! moreover, our stay was pretty long for about 10 days and it’s not so easy compromising on such things you see! other than this, we hardly had any problem…

Sterling hotel is located on a forested mountainside and the view from the resort is breathtaking. Stirling hotel offers comfortable, elegantly furnished rooms with all modern amenities and is a true 'home-away-from-home'.Overall a very comfortable and pleasant stay.

Ambience facilities view from room

The resort is about one hour drive from the munnar town (which is al right since there is nothing much exciting in the town) - the resort is spacious with excellent unhindered view of the valley and the lake from the room that i got. It is also a good property spread across a good length of area. It had a grocery store inside and has lot of shops - groceries, etc. Located just outside the resort and therefore it was convenient. There were two big drawbacks, however - the room was not tastefully furnished - it had a rot iron bed, rot iron chairs and rot iron table with naked floors and no carpet; no wall paintings either- though the room size was abundant and the room and toilet very clean, but in the cold climate of munnar, it did not offer the warmth of a good hotel room. .

The resort itself was very ill-maintained and it was not a pleasure being inside the room (except for the view of course) or in the resort - the walls were damp, it was cold inside. The resort looked more like a government lodge rather than a resort. The food was good and pricing of the food was also very affordable - a lavish vegetarian dinner for two would cost approx. Rs. 250/-. The kitchen did not look very hygenic though.
