Reviews and Ratings
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, despite being independent cottages with a nice view of the lake and children's play area, had issues with cold temperatures due to the glass windows and a faulty bathroom flash that wasn't fixed promptly despite reminders. However, the location near the boating spot offered a good view and the infrastructure was impressive, although the complexity of the cable provider remotes was frustrating.
The hotel offers really cozy beds and neat, clean rooms, ideal for the cold weather climate of Midlands. The Queen size bed, wardrobe, makeup mirror table, and the bathroom with individual geyser, western toilet, and bathtub with shower facility were impressive. Despite the room comforts, bringing a cab might not be encouraged as they have an expensive travel desk on-site. The service was very courteous and helpful, ensuring customer comfort with great cooperation. The location is perfect for hanging out with friends, although it's a bit far from the main city, but conveniently close to the Ooty lake area. I found the dining options to be a la carte, with additional charges for breakfast. Overall, the facilities offered were on point, contributing to a pleasant stay.
The hotel is situated in a spacious area facing the lake and open lawn with a children's play area, ideal for the cold weather in Midlands. Although lacking fans and with windows that cannot be opened due to insects, the rooms were acceptable, mainly because of the attached sitting room despite being a bit cramped. The taxi driver provided by the hotel had excellent communication skills and customer values, being polite and helpful throughout our stay. However, there is room for improvement in the attitude of the front office staff. The location, away from the main city but near the boathouse, offered a wonderful premise area for relaxation but could benefit from renovation.
