I had a wonderful experience at this hotel in Palani, with clean, spacious rooms offering stunning views of the Palani Murugan temple. The staff was helpful, but there were some delays in service at the restaurant, particularly during dinner. Overall, it's a comforting place to stay with a decent breakfast, but there's room for improvement in the cleanliness of the restrooms and the efficiency of dinner service.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were exceptionally clean and well-maintained, making for a comfortable stay overall. The location was lovely, with a nice view of the temple hill. However, the dining experience left a lot to be desired, with slow service in the AC restaurant, which was frustrating at times. Overall, it's a decent place, but I wish the dining service was quicker.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel near the temple, which exceeded my expectations with its modern amenities and excellent service. The rooms were clean and connected as requested for our family, making it comfortable. The food was top-notch, especially the South Indian meals. However, the walk to the cable car station can be a bit far and the room service could improve slightly.
