Hotel Darshan is very nice place to stay.and it having best veg restaurants for people like us who hunting for pure veg only restaurant.taste is also delicious.rooms are also clean and location of hotel is good.overall value for money.

Hotel is well located and staffs and pretty decent. Structure of the building allows lake view from every floor. Hotel needs maintenance and staff needs to improve communication. I would say except reception staff rest are quite well spoken but understands things takes time.

We visited Ooty last week & stayed (3 days /4 nights) at Hotel Darshan. We had selected the hotel because of its proximity to Ooty Lake. Hotel room was nice especially the ones overlooking the lake which boast of a fantastic view, Facilities are non existent since it is basically a B & B. The hotel has a dining room facility, however food leaves a lot to be desired. Since the location is not central to bus stand, eating out at night is not an option . The day is spent sight seeing, hence we were eating out at lunch time in any case. Breakfast is complimentary, however this being a strictly veg joint, options are basic & very limited. We were told the chef is on leave to explain the terrible food, so maybe it was the case. Service was reasonably good, food could be a lot better..

I stayed at Hotel Darshan in June 2018 and let me tell you, that i read mixed reviews of the hotel on TripAdvisor. So it was somewhat a mixed feeling, however Mrs. Jadeja at the hotel made my stay an amazing one even before we reached Ooty. She provided us a lake facing room and accommodated additional adult in the room (Thank you very much Mrs. Jadeja). The weather was fantastic and the breakfast was delicious. The lunch/dinner facility was amazing and tasty (we loved it). Mrs. Jadeja arranged a cab for us during our stay for sight-seeing which was very helpful (The only suggestion, i would give is to ask for Hindi / English) speaking drivers depending on your comfort level). We had a wonderful stay at the property and the weather and view from the room/ the location of hotel made it a memorable one. The staff were courteous and very hard working. God Bless them all. Thank you Mrs. Jadeja and everyone at Hotel Darshan for the amazing hospitality.

The hotel was under construction when we went. The breakfast room is not ready. still, they need to do flooring.for the family of 4 they gave us a very compact room. Maintenance and cleanliness is not up to the mark
