Accommodation in Cameron highlands
Edit ThisOther than the bigger hotels mentioned below, there are also many smaller family-run local hotels in Brinchang, Tanah Rata, and Ringlet. The rates for these can be as low as 30 Ringgit per night for a double.
Also, if you have not made reservations before hand, and it is off peak season, you can usually bargain for lower room rates too. I've personally managed to get up to 50% off my room rates at Equatorial, Strawberry Parks, Merlin, and Heritage Hotel!
You will also get more bargaining power if you check in late. They tend to be more flexible about the room rates if the room is going to go empty anyway. Also there is a chance that you will spend in the restuarants and bars.

Bala's Holiday Chalets
Edit ThisA really nice, quiet place about 5 minutes drive out of Tanah Rata. Bala's Holiday Chalet was built back in the 1930's as a school for expatriate children from Singapore. Rooms are basic but clean.
A set Indian dinner is served each evening in their "British India" restaurant - although there is also an a la carte menu. A log fire, necessary some evenings burns in the dining room. Afternoon tea in the "colonial tradition" is served in the garden.
I stayed here for two nights, and I would recommend this for those who want a smaller quieter more..
