GRT Nature Trails Reviews

GRT Nature Trails Sky Roca is a fantastic place to holiday in Yercaud. We decided to choose Sky Roca, after reading the reviews on HolidayIQ. We stayed at Sky Roca on 3rd and 4th of May 2009. The room booking was done onlineand there were no hassles either during the booking process or during the check in. The ambience of the hotel is great and the icing on the cake is the view. The hotel is built on a ledge and every room has a balcony where you can get a great view of the hills, vallers and the ghat roads below. At night, you can see the lights in the city of Salem below. Overall, we had a great experience at the hotel. The valley view rooms are priced ar Rs.2500, but an additional Rs.1000 is charged as peak season premium. However, we got a complimentary pick up from Salem railway station to Yercaud. And the tariff includes complimentary breakfast.

Best Experience: The views were fantastic. The room was excellent maintained. Good ambience and decor. But the highlight of a stay at Hotel Sky Roca is the Sky Walk. A bridge connects the hotel building to the restaurant building. A part of the bridge has glass flooring. As you walk on the glass, you can see the valley beneath. This is a great innovation and you wont tire walking many times of the sky walk to get the feel of doing a tightrope walk in mid-air. Each time you walk, you wonder when the glass may break, but everything is built to high safety standards. Other attractions at the hotel include: 1) A treehouse built next to the hotel, you can climb up a metal staircase and enjoy the view 2) A library with Internet access (which was down when we stayed), books and DVD\'s (only Tamil movies though) 3) Just outside the reception, cycles are kept for children to take a jolly ride, this is an interesting innovation which will please children 4) An indoor games area - where you can play scrabble, carrom, chess and other such games 5) A picturesque elevator where you watch the view as you ascend/descend The highlight of this hotel is excellent maintenance of great housekeeping and service of the very helpful front office staff

Worst Experience: The restuarant needs improvement. We made a mistake of not opting for the buffet and all orders take their own sweet time. Even ice-cream takes 15 minutes. Service is also very average. Food quality is just Ok and can improve (through the breakfast buffet was good and had lot of options)

A nice hotel with courteous staff and helping hands. The rooms are spacious and well equipped... We required soem help as soon as we moved in and it was immediately attended to... Food needs a lot of improvement and I had mentioned that as a feedback.

We enjoyed staying in the hotel so much, that we did not step out to see what Yercaud had to offer! The hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Great value-for-money.

Best Experience: Excellent location, wonderful construction, amazing service.

Worst Experience: NONE at all!

Great experience - and the Hotel Sky Roca added to that. The \'tourist spots\' are average, but the experience is great if one is not looking for \'spots\'. Yercaud is of the better places to unwind and get recharged.

Best Experience: -Great views from my room - the entire Salem city was shimmering in the evening and all through the night. -Enjoyed the grilled veg sandwich. -Sit-out in the hotel provides great views to the Salem city. -The hotel quickly arranged for short trips to Yercaud at very short notice. -Room service was fast and efficient.

Worst Experience: -Had some initial problems in booking the room (advance payment), as the Internet facility at the hotel was down for some days; we managed by exchanging information over SMS.

The resort is fairly new and the experience is very good.

Best Experience: Their service is very good.
