The hotel was pleasant and a good location to explire the wider Ooty area. As a business traveller, I would have liked to have WiFi access in my room not just the hotel lobby. However, i do understand that this is a family hotel with a large number of time share properties. Staff were friendly and overall my stay was very pleasant.

Hotel experience
Hotel room had good view. But the location of the hotel is quite remote, with bad roads it is a bit difficult. If you have your own vehicle should not be a problem or the hotel was efficient to arrange for transport.
It was a pleasant stay at the sterling hotels.The view from the room was awesome.
the service was good , the breakfast was nice with a lot of variety.
only thing i can point is that they have no wifi in the rooms , it is available at the reception area but not i n the rooms.
other than that our stay was comfortable with the courteous staff of Sterling , we loved it.
You can check our video on youtube channel honey&Sarath Vlogs.
It was good overall, the internet was too slow and we couldn't get a good signal in our room. the location is a bit interior but otherwise a good place to stay. the hotel is more suited for families with kids rather than a couple looking for a quiet holiday.

Nice hotel in Ooty
The hotel is undergoing renovation. The renovated rooms are excellent. The lift was not working and we were informed that repairs will take 10 days. The manager and other office staff are very helpful. Vegetarian food is excellent. Breakfast spread was top notch (we had taken the continental plan). We had a pleasant stay.
