Marli Hill Bungalow - CGH Earth

Me and my wife stayed in Marlihill Bungalow - CGH Earth, Ooty between 13th May and 16th May for 3 nights. Full credit to Resort manager Mr.Amaljit. He ensures that all his staff are fully motivated and guest friendly. This type of home resort with few rooms is far satisfying than resorts which have 30-40 rooms without personal attention to guests. And, in large resorts, the buffet may have 40 items but only 1 or 2 will be tasty and worth eating.|Mr.Amaljit has ensured that his small band of employees constantly took after the guests. They simply ask what you want and they will make it for you. And, whenever we are relaxing in some place in the resort, they politely come to us and want to know what we want either coffee, tea or some snacks|I am fully satisfied with my stay. I give full credit to Mr.Amaljit for maintaining a friendly and comfortable stay in the resort. |Great, Amaljit! Keep it up

Marli hill bungalow is a beautiful 'home' set amidst lovely gardens, overlooking the hills of Ooty. |The rooms were comfortable & the decor was gorgeous. |The service was excellent! We were looked after by Amal the manager, Sai, Atul & the chef. We were even provided with heaters for our room & bathroom. Amal also arranged a wonderful walking tour for us in the Toda land. Communication with us before & after our stay was excellent. |The food we requested was authentic & delicious -typical of Tamil Nadu. |This place is a real gem & is highly recommended as an alternative to the usual hotel. |We loved our 3 days there!

Very nice stay at this amazing place. It's in the midst of city but far from the hustle bustle and close to the nature. It's an old bungalow with spacious rooms and bathrooms. The bed frames were not upto the mark though and was difficult to sleep.. The highlight of the place is the amazing staff who try to cater to most of the needs. Amaljit,Geetu,Vishnu, Pranay and others. The food is freshly prepared with locally sourced produce and is the highlight. Breakfast though prepared on the spot, the menu arrangement was a bit unclear but we didn't have much for clarification. They mentioned Kadala curry the previous evening but prepared Dosa the next day and did not even mention of what they promised the previous evening. Apart from uncertainty and a hint of stinginess over breakfast everything seemed great.

We had a lovely 3N stay at Marli. Superlative service from Amal, Vishnu and Sai. Good sized clean bedroom and bathroom. Very warm hosts. Great sitout area and lawn. Awesome food. Especially the local cuisine. Innovative desserts. Good guidance from Amal on activities and excursions from the place.

We received a warm welcome from Amaljith (Manager) and Geethu (Director of Operations), setting the tone for an excellent stay. Every request was met with a smile by Vishnu (Senior Server) and Athul, who ensured our experience was seamless. Vishnu also went the extra mile to arrange laundry service--a much-needed relief after three weeks of travel. We made a special request for pakoras, even though they weren't on the menu, and they turned out to be absolutely delicious. ||With outstanding hospitality, attentive service, and thoughtful touches, we highly recommend staying at this hotel.

The service of all the staff members were excellent. We had amazing welcome. That set the tone for our stay. The room was very clean, and smalls really relaxing. The showers were excellent. We had breakfast and it was delicious. In addition we asked them to prepare some snacks to have it with our drinks and they did amazing job.

What an amazing place we were met by Amal and Geethu and immediately felt at home...nothing too much trouble ..arranged a cookery lesson and served the most delicious home made food ...if your in Ooty this homestay must be on the top of your list. Rooms are immaculate, clean and more than comfortable. Wish we had longer to stay will definitely be back

Amaljist and his team were fantastic , both in communication and sorting out our tour excursions. Top marks to the chef , his dinners and breakfast completed an authentic tamil hill station experience as well as catering for our occasional western tastes . |The grounds of the marli hill were relaxing and beautifully laid out . This small establishment ( only 6 rooms ) is not to be missed
