India - Ooty Hotels

Are Ooty hotels safe? I am going for my honeymoon and do not want to take any unnecessary risks.

Hello, Siya87 and welcome to Flyertalk!

I didn't know what Ooty hotels were, so I went to this website:

http://www.ootyhotels.net/ooty_hotels.htm

Ooty is a town in Tamil Nadu, India. The hotel listing on the web page above lists the hotels in town, giving them a star ranking. The highest ranking is 4 stars, and that goes to a Holiday Inn and a Days Inn.

Neither of these are luxury hotels, so I think you will probably not get the answers you desire in this forum. To improve responses, I am going to move this thread to our India forum, where I believe the posters are more likely to have the information you are looking for.

Again, welcome to FT!

welcome to ft siya87....why would you think ooty is not safe????

i've been to ooty once....stayed at the savoy hotel....nothing great about the property....it was nice but not honeymoon worthy....

I have stayed at both the Taj Savoy and the Holiday Inn in Ooty. (Oct 2011.)

Both reasonable experiences, but nothing spectacular. I probably won't return to Ooty, not because of something with the hotels, but just becuase the whole place seemed very "meh" to me....

The only thing I really liked were the tea estates and the (export quality only) white needle tea. Picked up quite a few packs. ^

The hill station is very very popular with tourists. Only because it’s safe. Otherwise why would it be such a hit?

because the climate is far more pleasant than below...

If you’re so scared spend your honeymoon at home man!

Ive stayed at the savoy, Holiday inn gem park and Sullivan court. They are all pretty good if not amazing hotels.
Savoy has a nice old-world-british-raj ambience and i tend to lean toward the savoy more than the others.

you can also try staying at Coonoor. its a little less crowded and touristy compared to ooty. the Gateway Hotel coonoor is an option worth checking out. :D

hope you have a great trip!

anyone else find it strange that this thread has an unusual number of first time posters who have not returned to post again????
