This hotel is at the end of a steep and narrow road. So be a little careful when you take your vehicle to the hotel.
Their parking is been shared with a theater (which they own). So at times, you might find difficulty in getting a parking space.
The only dent in my car (the time when I write this blog) is the one that I got it from their parking space. Thanks to the reckless Xylo driver who has done it.
Please don’t expect any hill top view.
PROS:
Within the city Center, and neat rooms.
CONS:
This hotel doesn’t have a restaurant , but they will arrange food as per your order.
If you plan to take your own food from outside, you will have to travel 1 Km or so.
Not recommended for New drivers (road to hotel is little risky).
Can plan for a visit to the following places:
Coonoor Ooty lake Rose Garden Nilgiri Mountain Railway (NMR)
One Line Summary: Good and Neat Hotel, but with some limitations
This was my first trip to a Sterling Resort after taking a membership in my name. Overall it was a very nice trip. We had taken 6 rooms for a family get together.
The staff was very helpful. We had taken a package for food wherein 3 times a day food cost around 1060 rupees (all were buffet type). They have lot of options available in their menu and food was tasty aswell (less spicy though).
Location wise, Yelagiri doesn’t have much attractions but the only 2 points Murugan temple and lake (for boating) are very near to this resort. Lot of options for Trekking, I guess…
There is a swimming pool in the resort but make sure to bring the swimming attire with you, else you will have to shed some money buying new ones (approx. 260 for mens trousers). Swimming Pool is cleaned every day morning..
They arrange a DJ on a couple of days in a week. There are some games like TT, where in you can spend some time. Rooms are spacious with a balcony available for most of them. This is not a Hill view or lake view type of resort. So please don’t set any expectations in that perspective.
In places like Yelagiri , you would be spending a lot of time within the resorts/hotels or home stays where you stay. So selecting a proper place to stay is very important and I would recommend Sterling Marigold Ridge for a wonderful stay. I think the resort guys will arrange a trip to a sunset point at 4: 30 PM in the evening but I have not taken that trip. On request basis, probably they can arrange sun rise point visit aswell.
We had taken 5 rooms here during the Pooja holidays in October 2015.
Had spent around INR 3000+ for each cottage, as the charges were on higher side due to demand.
I believe once upon a time, this would have been one of the best resorts in Yercaud having Independent cottages with 2 big rooms (one with AC) / 2 bathrooms (with geysers), 3+1 Sofa , sofa cum bed , balcony , parking space in front of each cottage and so on. But now this hotel doesn’t have that glory anymore, because of very bad maintenance.
I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to any one of you and with such high rates, absolutely NO. You have tones of other options available in Yercaud.
The rooms are not neat and bathrooms are horrible.
This is around 2 Kms from city center.
I would admit that the place is calm and there is a children playing area within the campus.
Restaurant here is not a full-fledged one and they make the food only based on the order. In case, if you are planning a late check-in expecting that you can have the lunch at the resort, please make sure that you order your food at the restaurant well in advance, else you will have to travel back to city center for getting some decent food.
One Line Summary : Wouldn’t recommend this resort.
