Lake View is a very budget friendly hotel. The location is excellent-just 5 minutes from the lake. The cottages are well maintained and have all the basic aminities. The property has 115 cottages and is really spralling. The dining area is very clean and the food is awesome and reasonable. The hotel staff is well behaved and the service is generally ok though somethimes my go little wrong.They have enough car parking area. I recommend this hotel to my fellow travellers.

As I drove down from Bangalore and entered Ooty, I felt that the hotel was almost 1.5 KM from the main bus stand. We passed the famous Ooty lake, before finally landing up at the hotel. But the good thing about the location is that the hotel is very near to the famous ooty lake or the boat house. The road on which the hotel is located is very wide, neat and clean. We found five hotels on this road. The landmarks for reaching the hotel are the other two hotels and the famous Ooty lake which is in front of this hotel or should I say this hotel is somewhat facing to lake. There are seperate cottages and are really nice. The Hotel has no covered parking but has space to park about two cars, just in front of each cottage. The hotel is in a very convenient location for Botanical garden and the boat house. The Dobbetta peak and the tea factory is also not far away from the hotel. As the hotel is on the road that leads straight to the boat house. Boat house, also called the Honeymoon spot, is within walking distance from the hotel. Even if a rickshaw or auto offers to take you up to the gate, you can decline the offer and walk up to the gate, unless you want to enjoy the three minutes ride itself. A reasonably good view of the lake is available from the hotel's first ten cottages. There are few rooms with lake view but we could not get one of them on the first day but the hotel staff was so supportive we asked them to arrange for lake view room and they gave us that room the very next morning. The staff was reasonably helpful. We booked the Deluxe room and when we reached the hotel at 09.30 AM, the room was ready. The person at the reception gave us some good advice on planning for the sightseeing. We could get a room facing the road and the hill only as the rooms facing the Taj were not available on the first day when we checked in but when we asked the hotel staff to give us lake facing room they gave us that room the very next day. The room was small but neat and comfortable. The linen was clean and the taps and flush were working. The bathroom was compact and reasonably clean.
We did not order anything fancy. Food was good. Service was fast. It was served hot and on time, no delays at all. The payment of the the bill was not immediately by cash so one can enjoy breakfast without any tension of carrying cash.
On the whole, the hotel is a good option for the traveller and for short stays. I would definitely recommend this hotel to any traveller who wants to stay in OOTY...

Good value for money. Best part was the hotel location, out of city center and not very far. 60 bucks from bus station in an auto rickshaw. Did not realize that it was an 8 acre cottage styled hotel until we checked it. It was a pleasant surprise. Though we got the lake view it was not very clearly visible. Play area exists for kids with slides and swings etc. Food was good and value for money. Hotel itself suggest to go for restaurant rather than room service as the food item will get cold (8 acre compound) and will be expensive as well. Staff is cordial. They allow 24 hour checkin. This is surprisingly not mentioned on the website. Extra charges per hour plus luxury tax which was very convenient for us as we did not have to pay for the enire day.
Hotel can improve their services by creating recreational area or indoor games like carom, scrabble etc. Also they can ensure that there is heating in waiting area and in the restaurant.

Location of the hotel is quite nice. It is next to the Ooty lake. It is a bit away from the hustle of the city centre which is something I liked. The rooms are economical, has good size. Frankly, I believe that the rooms are worth the cost. The buffet breakfast was resonably priced. Each room is built like a seperate house - giving lot of privacy. If you are looking for a hotel worth the money, this hotel is right for you.

Worst experience.
I had booked an executive suite and expected the best facilities.
Horror #1- can you imagine a floor without carpets in a hill station location? 24 hrs water supply was not available. The hot water supply stopped after I filled 1 bucket of hot water. When I asked the house keeping they said you have to wait for 30 mins everytime you fill the bucket. No LakeView at all. They said the only difference between Deluxe and Executive Suite was the fire place in the room. And if you wanna use it they would charge you Rs 100 for 2 hrs of fire. No mineral water bottles were provided in the room.
Please please stay away from this hotel.

Hotel is Very Great and Well Maintained, Near to the Ooty Railway Station and Bus Stand, only I had faced the Power Problem on the Day one, since entire Ooty power shutdown on day one that is on 27th April
No Power back up avaialble on that day, in the next day none of the Tubelights have functioned, no action taken based on my Complaint
Food Quality is Very Good, Buffet Breakfast in the Morning very Cost Affordable Price, but Room Service Price of are Costly not affordable for the Middle class People
They Had maintained the rooms well, great, neat and clean
But the Climate is very cold in Ooty, they not having the Woolen Blanket in the Cot
I am suggesting the Hotel management to have Wooden Flooring to avoid very cold without wearing Chappals and Sandals we could not walk easily inside the room
Overall comments is Very Good to Stay and Enjoy, Hotel itself having lot of Naturals seanories to view, record and take snaps
Thanks and Regards,

The stay was good. The location of the restaurant is really pleasant and green. The only problem with staying in Villa is that they are located at the very end of the slope making it difficult to climb up a long way to the restaurant/reception. I would not prefer Villas (with view of lake) for kids and old age people. The room service is good - whatever you order you will get it quickly. The other problem we had with travel desk is the package they arranged for mudumalai and pykara. The miss lot of places and we had a terrible experience at mudumalai where the driver asked us to take private safari, which is merely a waste of time. The hotel is also not clear about their package. The 2 packages mudumalai and pykara & film diwane are almost the same except in mudumalai they take you to mudumalai. Hotel should clearly mention that to guests and we felt very bad to see the same places twice in 2 days. So, I would recommend people avoid taking packages. The best choice would be to take taxis or own vehicle.

Property is good; 8 acres of it, I was told. You don't exactly get a view of the lake from most cottages, though the place is very near to Ooty lake. The executive suite we stayed at had a living room and bedroom and was spacious enough.
The road to the hotel passes through some shabby areas and do not give you a good feel, though its all good once you enter the property. I would rate the experience above average considering all aspects.
Being a south indian very familiar and fond of north indian & indian-chinese preparations, I found their restaurant pathetic. I would suggest exploring options outside as much as you can

On the way to Ooty you can find the Hotel advertisement on each bend of 36 curves. Well this will certainly raise your expectations for the hotel. It fails to perform at that level.
Although my stay at hotel was fine with an exception to few glitches i found. Smell of stinking upholstery on furniture. It was stainy too.Cheap old style blankets instead of quilt.
I recomend this hotel for the stay not for the food. Sour Dosa batter, mismanaged service, tasteless curries.

Heater provided was inadequate. The living room windows are not insulated properly so cold breeze will escape in to the living room which will make the room very cold and cannot sleep on the extra bed. Otherwise overall experience was very good with respect to hotel which was located in v v beautiful place and very roomy cottages. Overall v good experience except for the heater which spoilt our sleep.

The hotel is well known in Ooty and its spread over 8 acres. Its well accessible from Bus stop or train station.
Rooms are good and they are renovating many of the old cottages. The cottage we stayed was clean and decent.
Services and responses from hotel staffs are decent and found them helpful.
There is enough open parking-inside the hotel.
Food is OK, not so great.
View of the Ooty Lake is not there, so don't go with the name.
Overall good and satisfied with my stay in the hotel.

Suggestions:
1. Why do not they introduce buffet system for all? It was long waiting for food. They can give some 3-4 options on curries etc.
2. Food is bit over priced , can you please reduce a bit?
Overall, nice experience.

An excellent hotel gone bad due to inept staff.
First, the name is all wrong. You do not see the lake from any room. From the first row rooms, you can get a glimpse of something like a sewage tank, which they call the lake. All rooms are same, a small living room and a smaller bedroom. The hotel is located at some distance from the main city and you will have to shell out Rs. 100 everytime you want to go outside or come back. Thankfully the hotel has fixed the rates for the same and autos are available on call. The hotel runs its own sightseeing group tours which are overpriced by 30-50%. Checkin is at 1 pm (checkout at 11 am) and if you reach before, most likely they will ask you to wait for your room. The worst part is, there is no complementary breakfast.

My parents experienced somewhat mixed feelings about their stay at Hotel lakeview in Ooty.
Firstly the positives. The location was really good and it was really calm & peaceful.
Secondly the hotel covered a large area which means plenty of open space to relax.
Now the negatives.
the package didnt include any dining options so they had to search for proper food joints.
Secondly although the cottage was nice but the bed rooms were small as compared to living rooms. It should have been vice versa.
Service was okay as they generally did not use much of it.
Overall I would say the stay was fine although not that great.

Its an exotic resort. This cottage is really good but it is far away from the lake and every time you need to pay Rs.50 in auto to reach railway station or bus station. this resort is ideal for those who come in own vehicle and all the cottages are built in a slope i got a room in first row which is down side of the slope and anytime if i need to reach reception i need to climb 500 meters upwards which was horrible.
Food is not so great and for room service 20% extra. Room service is average they didn't provide hot water and towels when allocating the room. for everything we need to request. They have a fire place in cottage but we need pay Rs.100/ for firewood separetly. Overall a good experience since they assigned room in first row i can view a portion of lake from my room

Lake view resort is located near to boat club ooty. Definitely you will get nice secenic view but there is no shop, restaurent or cafe in near by. If you really want to enjoy solitude with nature then it's best palce to stay. Market is about 4 km from hotel and autowala charges Rs 50 till station and Rs 80 till charing cross cicle (most happening place in ooty). Rooms were really very neat n clean and staff people were nice. Food was good (not excellent).

Had a very bad exeprience staying in this hotel compared to other 3 star hotels in Ooty. The location is very far from ooty railway station/bustand. Only book this hotel if you are going by own vehicle. Room quality was not upto the standard of a 3 star hotel but comparable to a budget hotel. I booked a suite room. There was a dining table, two chairs, one centre table and one double coat in the room. Room looks very old.
Pathetic. Travel desk is useless. they committed a cab for me at 2.30 for local sight seeing. I called 2.30 and enquired them about the cab they told me that the cab is on the way. But even after 3PM cab was not ready. I again called them at 3.00PM and without any hesitation travel desk people told me that the cab is cancelled due to heavy traffic in Ooty (note that they didnt inform me by calling me in mobile or room extension.
Very bad experience in the restaurant also waited for food in restaurant for more than 30 minutes and didnt get the food. Finally had to come out and have food from some other restaurant 5KM away from hotel.
Dont book this hotel. Try to find some other hotel.

Their response and action was swift during check in and check out period, they did not waste our time for this things. Rooms were maintained cleanly and the service was fair. About the cafeteria, cost was high and some times the service was getting delayed too much. The location of the hotel is excellent and those who want to stay away from the busy area, this is the choice.

I had a very good experience with the Hotel. The location and setting was perfect, away from the crowded city it was very quite and peaceful. The boat house was just 10 min walk down from the hotel. The Staff was courteous. Rooms were very nice & comfortable for the amount we paid. Room service was amazingly fast. Food quality was 7 out of 10 can improve. Travel Desk was very prompt, helpful & economical. I was impressed with the scenery of the hotel and cottage locations. Of course don't expect to see the lake from the cottages. Lake is mostly not visible from any part of the city unless you go close to it due to thick trees.

I had a horrible experience at this hotel. It is far off from the city in a jungle. The cottages are dingy. My wife was locked in the bedroom as their was no handle on the door. She had to jump out of window to come out. Even after all this there was no apology from the hotel. Never stay at this hotel or you will suffer just as I did.

The office desk didn't let us check in even when it was close to 1 PM on 23rd. It was frustrating because we came from station restless and hungry and kids waiting for fun rather than sitting tight. After lot of wrangling they issued one room after another for us.
Food: They have a nice cafeteria but limited choices and that becomes clear when you stay for 5 days as we did.
Service staff: don't know how to respond to customer calls and their standard answer is - will be done in 5 minutes. They think it is a crime to say it will take 1/2 day or whatever.
Location: Nice and I will give good marks for location. Ample space for car parking. They have an very effective travel desk too for planning your local trips.

The quality of the room was terrible and no proper arrangements were made to escape from the severe cold. Fire place was located in front room which can't warm up the bed room. If we switch on the electrical heater and geyser in one time, fuse will be tripped off. Only dining was very good.

This hotel is perfect for all (bachelors, families, newly married couples) with 3 star amenities. The rooms are very clean and well furnished. The bathroom was like a regular 5 star hotel look. Very clean, had all the shampoos, moisturizers, shower caps etc. Separate shower cubicle, no bath tub though. This hotel has both deluxe lounges and suites. I have stayed in a suite for 2 days and it was comfort for my family and kids. The bathroom is fitted with a geyser to get the hot water however we have to wait for 45 mins to get the water hot. I ordered room service and the butter chicken was excellent with the roti. There is a travel desk at the reception where they help the travelers in providing different transport facilities for sight seeing in a very reasonable rates. This hotel is very near to the boat club and the horse safari's. I would definitely recommend this hotel to any traveler who wants to stay in Ooty to enjoy there vacation.

1) Location - This place is outside of Ooty Main city area. I guess about 5-6 kms or more. This is great advantage when you have your own car/taxi/bus since it is very scenic and peaceful. Else you will have to depend upon auto and spend 100 bucks for any trip. There is an auto stand at the hotel with rate card.
Location will work to your disadvantage also in the case that your driver will have to have food at the hotel restaurant. Also there is no separate staying and food arrangements for drivers.
But all this is OK since the view and the surrounding of the hotel deluxe cottages are excellent. You can just stay at the place and forget about going out or returning back.
Hotel Location & garden property gets 5 out of 5 rating.
2) Food - Choices are not so great. Service is not so good. It closes down at 9.30 pm. Rating 3 out of 5. Also there is no bar nor any shop nearby.
3) Housekeeping - Not so great. Only available till 6 pm. Also not available in afternoon. Rating 2 out of 5. We used the laundry services also. It was good.
4) Room area - Great area for one hall and one bedroom with good furniture. Rating 2 out of 5. We were charged extra for the heater. This is not a good thing.
5) Bath & Toilet - The area is huge but fittings are not so great. The toilet seats are very inconvenient to use. Rating 1 out of 5
Overall I would rate this 3 out 5 just because of the location.

The hotel is good for leisure. I like concept of having cottages for maintaining high level of privacy. The rooms were clean and well furnished. The food available in restaurant was of good quality. The hotel ambiance and service was good. The only thing i didn't like was hotel was far from main bus stand/railway station (around 3 kms). I would recommend this hotel to any traveler who wants to stay in Ooty for relaxation.

The Hotel asked for a security deposit of Rs.500. The room was hopelessly hopeless, if there is a word like that. The windows were ready to fall down at any moment and there were no water heater. The only positive factor was that they were kind enough to send us a taxi when our car broke down about 15kms away in the midnight.send us a taxi when our car broke down about 15kms away in the midnight.

It was truly an amazing property. The room alloted to me was spacious and the view was elegant. The staff was active and responded nicely. The food was not so tasteful but manageable. The location was convenient and surrounding was peaceful.

I didn't have any issue with the room quality or food arrangement as it was well up to my expectation but service was pathetic. There were two incident when staff didn't respond. I asked for the drinking water but they were not bother at all.

I was not satisfied with the overall experience. The room given to me was not so so comfortable and it was not providing any view is well. The staff was hopeless and service was slow. The food was also tasteless. It was not a worth while property to stay.

The hotel is reasonably priced and the comfortable 2-room cottage that it provides is spacious for a family of 2+2. The restaurant offers a decent choice of Indian and Chinese food that is not too spicy.
The location of the hotel is away from the noisy town square and quite peaceful. The hotel complex is very pretty and ideal for a family or romantic weekend getaway. If there is one thing the hotel can improve, it is their check-in/out policy. Currently it is 12 noon for check-in and 11 am for check-out. What I observed on both the mornings that we were there was a steady stream of guests from 8 am onwards (all buses reach Ooty early morning) who would then be asked to wait in the lobby until someone checked out at 11 am. This was causing a lot of discomfort for the guests who then had to use the common toilet which was a source of further discomfort. If the hotel can change the policy to 24-hour check in/out and enforce it strictly, it will be a great relief to guests coming in. Apart from this minor discomfort, we really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The service is polite and reasonably quick given their limitation of having to cater to many guests. I would definitely recommend a trip to Hotel Lakeview in Ooty, especially after having checked out all the other hotels in the same price range in the other areas of Ooty.

It was a nice experience, staying in a suite cottage. Both north and south Indian food was excellent. Service was quick in hotel restaurant. It was little far from the market area but Lake was very near (walking distance).Lake was visible from our room but the same is not visible from all the rooms (except suite). Room interiors was OK kind of and bathroom was SO SO. TV was showing just one channel that too in local language. Greenery was very good in all the areas of Hotel. Overall I will recommend to have stay.

The hotel is located in a very peaceful place. The best thing we liked about this property is the deluxe cottage which was well maintained with all the facilities. The food was good in taste but the staff was average. Altogether this is a good property.

The room quality was poor and it was really not worth the amount charged. Otherwise service and food arrangement was quite up to the mark. Location was also convenient. I thing they need to work on their room arrangement.

The property is beautifully located. And living in a cottage made the whole stay different from staying in a normal hotel. The view form our suite was very good. The food could have been better. The transport arrangements to go to different parts of the hill station were quite good but a little expensive. The campfire arrangement within the room was quite unique. On the negative side there weren't too many activities within the hotel like a games room or a dancing floor. I think they need to develop these two to make the place a little more happening. Currently it wears a slightly over formal look. Overall a great place to stay in.

YES, it was a great pleasure to stay in HOTEL LAKEVIEW. We enjoyed the stay and well the service was excellent and the co-operation by the reception staff was also good, moreover we could have a good menu in the restaurant that gave us immense joy while we had the food. Hotel was safe enough and and being full with most educated tourists as we met quite few of them with whom we could enjoy and trip, well thanks for the Management of the hotel.
