As the word goes, it is definitely the best (or at least better than the rest) place in Yercaud. Beautiful views from each room, courteous staff, and a nice property. Yercaud is a small place with not much to do, so it's worth it to invest in a good property with a view to stay, rather than stay in the town. Stay: We were a group and took 5 valley view rooms. The rooms are super comfortable, well-appointed, and the balconies are spacious with jaw-dropping views of the valley. My favorite was the lights of Salem at night! The Hotel: The hotel is perfectly located outside the hustle and bustle of the town. Situated at the edge of the incredible Shevroy hills, it has the best views from almost everywhere on the property. The property has some activities, which the kids especially will enjoy. The Cons: 1. The price, as you might feel, is indeed pretty steep, and yet the property misses the wow factor. Compared to others in town, it's at least double the price, sometimes going up to almost 20k per night in summer! So, I feel the value proposition to justify the price is not quite there. The view is definitely one of it's biggest pulls. 2. The food is above average at best. Should focus on bringing in more local cuisine. However Balaji is a delight! 3. The staff is very hardworking but undertrained. It's important for them to receive the adequate focus to keep up with the every changing trends of global hospitality. Summarizing, if you are a well-traveled person who stays at international hotel chains, you will find shortcomings. An alternative is passing over operations to Radisson like some of the other GRT hotel properties. Overall, we had more than just a pleasant stay and enjoyed the holiday a lot! Special mention to the PRO who jumped into action when there was a medical emergency. He not only ensured medical assistance from the on-call doctor but also facilitated a visit to the hospital when required. Give it up to Team GRT Yercaud for an ultra comfortable stay! I will surely be back...
