Its also not next to any tea plantation, its probably 15-30 min on the road. However, if you play golf theres a 'public' golf course just opposite the hotel.
Its probably still the best option in Cameron Highlands at the moment, but its not a place I would like to stay.
Well, we went ahead and booked Cameron Highlands Resort. It will be noisy (road), but it sounds like it calms down somewhat at night. We travel with earplugs so don't anticipate too much of a problem here... I don't know if I will do a complete trip report, but I will report back to this thread on our experience.
The hotel offers car service from KL, which we will use (it's a little expensive, but so simple I could not resist).
mario - we'll be in the KL Marriott 4/4 and 4/5 - Tell us where you'd like to meet and we'll buy you that drink I offered!
