Mountain Retreat - A Hill Country Resort

One of the best resorts in Ooty. Before starting my detailed review, a very high level review - Ooty is a beautiful hill station, but in a highly commercialised hill station like Ooty, getting a panoramic & peaceful place is really challenging. In my past 2 visits I was staying in other resorts near Ooty lake where the view was though good but somehow I was missing the hill station feel. But this resort really made my trip enjoyable. Reached the resort around 5pm, our Valley view room was ready & in reception staffs were professional & friendly. Within a minute they completed our check in. Room : spacious & clean room ( geyser, room heater, kettle, mini fridge etc available). We booked for valley view room & view from the room was mesmerising. If they would have planned for a balcony in valley view room, that View : Ketty valley view was mesmerising, full of clouds and a wide variety of plantations. On day 2 we enjoyed the sunrise ( if you are staying here, don’t miss the sunrise view ). On day 3 it was full cloudy, a short morning walk in clouds with singing birds and beautiful flowers was super refreshing. Food : Now coming to the best part of our stay. A big shout out for Mr Ranjan ( the chef ). He personally was checking with all guests on dinner/ breakfast menu. On day 1 we ordered nonveg food which was really yummy. On 2nd day Mr Ranjan asked us what we want for dinner, we ordered veg food ( jeera rice, aloo jeera, mushroom 65, naan, dal fry , masala papad & raita ), he made the best veg food I have ever tried. Breakfast also lot of varieties. Mr Prem Kumar was really prompt in service hot food. We liked the vada & sambar on day 1, requested Mr Ranjan to repeat the same on day 2. ( juice, fruits, bread toast, egg omelette, boiled egg, upma, poha, aloo paratha, dosa, vada, idli, poori, aloo sabji, sambar , chutney etc ) I am not sure what else I missed in my review, but in short, my third trip I highly enjoyed because of this resort. I will definitely visit this resort again. A highly recommended place. Few pics are attached for reference. Thanks for reading !

Very clean, efficient and friendly hotel. Perfectly located if you want to be away from the Ooty crowds and traffic. Stunning view of Ketti Valley. A special mention about the chef and the amazing south Indian dinner he cooked for us.
