“This retreat sits advantageously on a hill, presenting excellent views of Ooty that can be enjoyed from its balconies. The staff consistently demonstrate great hospitality, with Naveen at reception frequently singled out for his helpfulness in ensuring a smooth stay. While the food is generally praised for its taste and care in service, be aware that pricing and minimum order quantities can be on the higher side.”
