We stayed at Mistletoe for two days and enjoyed our stay. The room was very comfortable and the view beautiful and our meals were very tasty. Joe was extremely helpful when we asked for information and he also booked a hiking guide for us - an activity we would highly recommend.

Wonderful Facility
This is a wonderful place with breathtaking mountain views and a fantastic host who was not only a great chef, but provided for every need with knowledge and compassion. The building had many interesting design and artistic features which added to the enjoyment. Hotels.com said it was 6.5 miles from Munnar. It was actually 18 kilometers from Munnar on a busy National Highway which made all of my activities very complicated. Other guests had private cars with drivers so the location was not a hassle for them.

Best of the best!
To be honest, India was much different than my husband and I expected. We were disappointed by many of the other hotels and towns we visited... until we found Mistletoe in Munnar. It was the cleanest room/bathroom and best view of our whole trip. The homestay staff were very attentive and and the owner, Joe, helped arrange some trekking and even took us to a local toddy shop to taste some toddy (beer/cider type drink rendered from a local fruit tree). This stay was the highlight of our trip. If planning to visit Minnar, I wouldn’t stay anywhere other than Mistletoe.

Service is true passion
It can be immediately noticed that this place has been taken care with a passion to both quality in premises and customer service. Rooms are almost spotless with a nice view over the mountains and it is relaxing enjoy their home-cooked meal while watching the scenery. Highly recommend for those who don't expect busy nightlife and action around the hotel. This is a place to relax and feel like home faraway from home.

beautiful views
A delightful place to stay. The views from all of the rooms are superb, and the food is very good. It is some 20km in to Munnar town but buses and tuktuks are frequent, so that is not an issue. Indeed I would not recommend staying in Munnar itself -- it is a pretty ordinary place and, whilst surrounded by hills, does not have the views and rural feel that one gets from being in the hills. Joe, the proprietor, was extremely helpful without being in the least bit pushy as regards transport or other activities. Highly recommended if you are looking for something of good quality without paying luxury end prices.

Hi Mr. Trevor, It is indeed with a great feeling of gratitude that we would like to acknowledge the candid review expressed! We are honored to hear that you had enjoyed your stay with us and the food! With regards to breakfast we have noticed that people have varied taste, majority are very selective stick to fruits, juice, eggs & Toast or cereals , tea / coffee etc. A few try Keralan breakfast. In our earlier experience we had prepared big selection and people eat very frugally and mostly it goes waste as we have only 5 rooms. However we have mentioned a selection where if informed overnight we could try to justify your expectations as well! Thanking you once again for the honest recommendations and personal pats!

Small family hotel
Clean, small family hotel in Munnar. Nice rooms, kind stuffs. It is very close to the road, so sometimes noisy

Hi Akos, Thank you very much for the short and crisp review, we appreciate your time and effort to make in online! The roads get busier in the weekends and during holidays, in the day time, and after 6 pm it is quiet and calm. Thank you and looking forward to see you again!

Best place to stay close to Munnar
This was possibly one of the best stays of our trip. We really loved our room, which was spacious, clean and comfortable. Also, the view from the room is very pretty. The breakfast every morning was a great surprise. Joe and his family were very welcoming and the most helpful. We highly recommend this homestay to anyone wishing to stay away from Munnar which in itself is very hectic and touristy. We'd love to stay here again.

Magical Mistletoe
I went ahead with this place after I read a lot of positive reviews about the place and the owner Johnson. I definitely was not disappointed. Mistletoe is truly magical. A small 5 rooms homestay and well maintained and decorated and very beautifully designed place. the owner Johnson is amazing and took extra efforts to make my stay comfortable. The home cooked food was simply delicious and well served....I would definitely suggest this place mainly for the mouth watering food! well done to Jo and his team!
