We have booked our stay in Hill Castle Resorts, Kothagiri for 2 days. Two adults. One Child. When we reached the resort, my heart dropped. Dirty area. Was thinking how can I spend two days in that so called resort. It was looking just like an old men's hostel. Actually I was carried away by a previous review " like a 3 star!".
Any was we checked in. The cancellation time was over. Now we won't get the money back. The owner of the property and staffs were polite enough. The kitchen staff cooked good homely food. And it was nice. But spending two days in that environment seems horrible and depressing. You are stuck inside a room. No garden to walk around. No play area for kids.It was just a building near by a road. No other amenities. After all I have came a long way to enjoy. Why wasting two days ? I searched again and booked another hotel near by for the next day. One day charges are gone . Still we would be able to enjoy atleast one day.
So we vacated the place after spending one day by losing one day stay charges. Food charges
We ordered lunch, one Veg meals, Two Kerala Porottas, one veg curry - 500
For Dinner
One Veg meals, two Dosas, two idlis- same charge - 500 Over all I was not satisfied with the stay. The hotel is apt when you roam around Ooty and Kothagiri all day, and then you want a place for sleeping. Good for batchelors, tour parties etc when you need a place just for wash room purpose. Not at all recommended for families like me. Pls note - the people here are very cordial. No complaints. But stay is utter waste. It seems all previous pics were misleading

Sir , I tried to find your contact number after you booked , to cancel your booking but there was no any contact number and you came directly on the booking date , so we were unable to do anything and we alloted the room .
I know that when the construction work is in progress it is difficult for both of us .
Untill the construction work is completed we have closed the bookings .
Sorry for the inconvenience.
