The hotel is perched on a hill having a patchy approach road. But once you get there, it is nice to behold the view from the top. You can virtually see the entire town of Ooty. The rooms are comfortable and we were upgraded to a Deluxe suite without asking. The service is courteous and fast. Part of the hotel... More

The rooms makes you dull with negative energy.With no TV in the bedroom it makes you much more depressed. Too expensive for the quality of the rooms. Food is so so. Not a place for enjoyable stay.The only good thing is good welcome by the staff.

The Resort is well located - just about 2 kms from the Race Course - in fact we could see part of the races from the balconies of the room. The best part of... More

I must clearly mention that the staff in this resort were extremely friendly, polite, and co-operative. But this alone cannot make for a great hotel. I was given one of the "renovated" room with extremely dim lighting in the bedroom. There were two ceiling lights, of which one wouldn't turn on. Upon complaining, I was promised that it will be...
