The services were pathetic. There was no wifi and when i complaint the IT guy blamed my device even though wifi was getting connected in reception area. There was no response from the team and they just ghosted. Will never recommend it to anyone.

Not value for money
Classic rooms are very small, property looks little old. Restaurant has many bees and was a challenge. Food options are good. Overall, I felt it’s overpriced for the facilities available

Not worth it!
The place is far away from the town. The rooms are very basic, and small. Housekeeping is poor. Breakfast was ordinary. Terribly overpriced. Not a great experience.

Relaxed weekend
The hotel was good but it's a bit of walk from the reception / restaurant to the rooms. If you stay longer you need to walk more. And there is a lot of scope for improvement. Staff is friendly and tried to improve service at the restaurant. Ramesh and Bala Krishna was good at the restaurant.

Not happy....won't recommend
Not the best value for money you pay. Food isn't great - buffet breakfast is not upto the mark. The condition of restaurant is bad. Wi-Fi does not work in rooms. No elevator in hotel; makes it difficult for kids and old. Rooms are not cleaned properly. Be cautious before booking.

Great resort though a bit away from the city centr
Stayed here for 3 days and had a great experience overall. The hotel is reasonably priced and the rooms are very clean. The staff is helpful and went out of their way in playing with him when we were having breakfast / dinner and also with a cake for our son on Children's day. Its about 7Km away from the city centre but is a very good place to stay otherwise.

Absolutely Amazing, away from commercial Kodai
Hotel stay was absolutely amazing and evening get together at hotel were really fun. The ice breaker used by emcee were really amazing and was really very lively environment. Only recommendation which I can give - in case you are booking for any hotel online then do confirm with hotel once before you start your vacation to seek confirmation on booking. We had booked two double rooms but upon reaching hotel we were surprised to find only one room booking was done. We were oscillating between hotel and expedia.co.in. Though after an hour of discussion between both parties we were able to get the room. However this could have been avoided had we checked with hotel prior to starting our journey.

Not a Pleasant Stay
Booked this Hotel for the scenic Valley View, but the location is not so great as it is in ADs. Room, Towels, Bed covers were not clean, they all had stains and stinking smell. Saw a board stating, currently they are renovating so may be try your luck after few months (stayed in July 2013), I'm not recommending this Hotel in present condition.
