The Grand Retreat - Chikmagalur

The stay was very comfortable and nice . Good property, good staff

Excellent Location, Excellent Hospitality, Awesome Food, Super Clean and hygienic Rooms, Courteous Staff. We stayed for 3 nights, and it was an awesome experience.

Resort is under development, needs improvement on activities within resort.

Easily accessible (only by car), decent location. Resort maintained well. Room was huge & good. Small private pool was good enough for quick dips. Resort seemed new & facilities were being still done. Bathroom & toilet were clean & stocked. Bed & room were clean. High tea was good & complimentary with good coffee & snacks. But food was very nominally priced for a la carte & even room service.

Restaurant was badly managed, food wasn’t good. Morning breakfast was a mess. Staff were clueless. Long waiting time. Absolutely no local food dishes. Even ala carte menu didn’t have any local dishes. South Indian food also not great.. filter coffee in coffee land was disappointing. Very limited timings for room service. Very expensive.. We paid 20k for a pool villa. maybe only for the long weekend but definitely not worth the price. Didn’t even feel like extending our stay. No shade for car parking. Staff didn’t seem too well trained. Few were friendly and most seemed disinterested. E

Good

The food was good. Staff was helpful and very responsive. The swimming pools are maintained really well.

The parking lot could have been shaded - some more trees or some sort of sheet roofing would help.
