As a clubM member me and my family stayed here for 3 nights (2 adults and 2 children over 10). We drove down from Chennai and one thing striking as we started the climb was the complete lack of adverts about lake forest. It was only GRT estancia all the way. Even on reaching the top we had to ask... More

Stayed here for a night and realised that this is a mediocre resort packed with cottages built, putting to use every square foot of the property. As you enter, you see the service entrance right next to the lobby - people delivery gas, veggies etc. Not a great sight. The dinner buffet was ok, but the breakfast was quite bad.... More

The best part of The Lake Forest Hotel is that it is not a hotel but a collection of bungalows spread over a vast area with lots of greenery. We got upgraded to an English suite and it was a nice suite with a sit-out and plenty of privacy. The amenities within the suite were good with a comfortable bed... More

After the hectic academic season was over, our family decided to take a short break before resuming the next year's preparation. The extended Tamil New Year's Day week-end gave us the opportunity to escape the heat of Chennai. Luckily we were able to snare 2 rooms in Lake Forest, Yercaud. Since the time was short and travel bookings were very... More

My wife & 5 year kid went to Lake forest last week and had very good overall experience. The place is perfect to relax.

I have been visiting this hotel for the past many years mainly because of the antique display there with the old world charm and a decent restaurant. But the reception I got from the F&B manager when I went there for lunch after a long and tiring drive from Chennai was very uncivilized and rude. I had to get out... More

I had been to lake forest hotel as part of a family trip, If you are a zest member, don't expect any of those services or quality at this place. As I'm an expecting mother, we requested a room near to the lobby, They were neatly furnished, with four post bed, which added a antique feel to it. Food was... More

Food is good, not great, but this is one of the best food you get in Yercaud. Ventured out for breakfast in a separarte place, but had to return back to... More

Though the location and rooms are exellent & value for money, the Hotel is rated low by me because of 1] Sluggish Service 2] Low on cleanliness 3] Terrible food. The hotel is actually in the middle of a coffee estate, amidst nature, retaining the charm of a bygone era. The lobby is like a mini museum, with real &... More

Visited in End of Feb. Being a Club Mahindra Member visited along with Ooty. The Hotel is superb with very good food. The ambience is excellent. The service however is not up to the mark. The rooms are nicely decorated with antique furniture. Though there is nothing much to do at Yercaud but the property is excellent to spend time... More
