The hotel has the oldest oak tree in the country. Such a pleasure to see acorns strewn all around. The hotel rooms are kept clean and the staff are very helpful. The rooms are comfortable and have great beds. Food has to be ordered a couple of hours before so it can be prepared as they don't have an around-the-clock... More

In one line the stay at Glyngrath is time travel. This heritage property is a 160 year old colonial bunglow. I stayed in the deluxe suite which was really good. However please do not expect any quality service .... since the structure is old the drainage get chocked and the water flowing in bathrooms may not be crystal clear :)... More

The owner took pains to acquire period style furnishings such as a 4 poster bed in our room. There are framed newspaper cuttings giving some of tghe history of the place.The rooms are HUGE and...

I thought of making my Mum's 50 birthday special, as we were bored of the usual celebrations. Ooty was our obvious choice and I think it is one of the best destination in India for a family holiday (especially in summers). I did some research online and chose Glyngarth villa, as it really came across like a heritage property reminding... More

The Glyngarth is a lovely hotel, small and friendly yet grand in style. We felt special being there for just two nights in April. The room we had was large with a four poster bed and modern bathroom. The view was lovely too. Breakfast was plentiful. Staff was very polite and helpful at all times. Wifi was only available downstairs,... More

I chose this place by reading the reviews on Tripadvisor and trust me its been an awsome experience. Everything positive said about this place is nothing but the truth. It's a Time Machine which takes you back and gives you an opportunity to experience the 19th century and a stay in a Villa. The Owner (Mr. Sahil Sait), Staff including... More
