    Houseboat kumarakom, sapphire club cherai these hotels , we had a poor experience . In houseboat you said they will give us ride of 5-6 hours but they gave us ride of only two hours . And meals were also bad . In sapphire club cherai . The bathroom pipeline was a type of chok up and the room service
    was very poor . You should give us more nice hotels according to 3-4 star ratings Hotel elephant route was a good experience . The room was also neat and clean . The hotel was also very near from the main point . We also enjoyed elephant safari and other activities there. The aurum resort munnar was also good experience . The room was clean and room service was also very nice . The meals were also very good
