Hotel Lakeview

The hotel was extremely dirty, there are stains on the walls, curtains, glass for has not been cleaned either and the bed did not have enough blankets. They charge extra for heater in the room and for wood even though they charge extra for rooms with a fireplace. Hot water is only available after 45minutes of turning on the heater. Nothing was remotely like the pictures. Do not stay there.

The property is located close to Ooty lake just 2 mins away. Beautiful and well maintained property. The staff is polite & helpful. The Rooms were very spacious with the facility of bonfire truly amazing. The room service is quick and the food served here is delicious as well. Though Breakfast needs improvement

Great location, beautiful surrounding atmosphere, great staff. Most friendly and helpful staff. Everything about the hotel was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with excellent service in where we had dinner. Food was good and great value for money and service was attentive and efficient. Room itself was well equipped and comfortable. I was very pleased with my stay. I hope to be back for a longer visit in the future.

Stayed in a Villa Room for 3 nights from 29 Nov-2nd December. The picture in the website shows huge looking rooms, but in reality, they were average, with a living come dining and a small fire place, a small bedroom enough for 2 with not much of moving space, and a spacious bathroom with hot shower, though the floor is pretty slippery, so be careful. Checkin was fast, the staff at the reception was very friendly and pretty efficient and resolved the minor issues I faced immediately. I ate all my breakfasts and Dinner at the hotel, and the food was of good quality, though the portions are a bit small and the prices were reasonable. Service at the restaurant was also good. The property is in an isolated area, nothing around, no auto's outside, so you have to be dependent on the hotel Taxi which was very expensive. I took an auto from the Bus stand to the hotel and arranged with the taxi driver to pick me up the next day and the following for a reasonable charge. I paid 750 from 12 Noon - 5pm, to go shopping and lunch. On the return, he charged me 150 to get from Hotel to Bus stand, the same amount I paid to get from the Bus stand to the Hotel. Visited Moddys Cafe to try the chocolate and Churros and Strawberry and chocolate, nothing great, pretty average. Their chocolates are pretty expensive too. I bought my chocolates at King Star near the Botanical gardens n pretty good. I tried the much hyped Darjeeling Spicy momo and it was Crap, please avoid. Their manchow soup was the most disgusting I ever had. I also visited Hyderabad Biriyani House, and though crowded was good value, large portions and reasonably priced. On the whole, I had a pleasant stay at the Lake View Hotel. Its a large property, and I was lucky my room was close to the reception/restaurant. The room also had a little lawn with a table and 4 chairs, but it was too cold and the weather played spoilt sport with rains. Remember they charge 500 + tax for a heater and 225+ tax if you want a fire lit in the fire place. So go all warmed up.

This property is located close to the Lake and it's a huge property which is maintained beautifully. My family loved this place. The proximity to the near by town is also great. The staff are friendly and welcoming and they have travel desk and all possible options to make our stay great. Great place to visit

The stay was nice. Place is also nice. Staff was very cooperative. The cleaning service is also nice. All the estate area is beautiful to see and clam place to stay...the bonfires was best part that you get, ofcourse it's chargeable but must have...
