This small hotel has a lot of nice things: Good location, nice and quaint rooms, good staff providing great service, and an excellent restaurant (Wyckoff's dining room, reviewed separately). The main building has a historic feel and the library, reading room and play area all have a vintage feel. However, it also has a few negatives. The rooms in the annexe building are not good. The amenities need an upgrade, the pillows and mattress feel old, the bed linen needs to be replaced, electric fittings need a refit. Also, the standard rooms are quite small. Outdoor noises get in and could disturb rest. The negatives are overcome by the positives, though. If we think of it as a homestay rather than a hotel, and if we are not very particular about the "value for money" part, then this is a great place. Overall I would recommend a frequent visitor to Kodaikanal to stay in this place at least once. Signature suite with fireplace would be a great option.…

Best Location just at the entrance of Coakers Walk. I had ordered Shepperd's Pie and it was some thing that I would die for, the Chef had done an exceptional work though the food bill was on the pricier side. Sipping Tea on the Terrace over looking the town & valley was one more gem of an experience. The Maintenance & Upkeep needs to be taken up quite a few notches. The Bath room had paint peeling of the walls and traces of moisture on the wall and door.

The rooms offered a snug and neatly arranged space for a delightful family stay. The breakfast, featuring both local and continental delights, was exceptionally tasty. The overall experience was fantastic; suggesting a bonfire in the common area would add to the charm. Sending best wishes to the Villa Retreat team!

Located in entrance of coakers walk, and you can have sunrise view and valley view, clouds move on your top, had car parking space, room service was good and prompt.There are different views based on your selection of room. If you have own transport it is easy to go for local sightseeing as this is the starting point for one side of local sightseeing (max imp places)and no need to struck in heavy traffic inside the city. But start at 8.30 AM and you can reach back in 3hrs.Also you can complete cookers walk, briyant park and Kodaikanal Lake which is walkble distance, no need to take your vehicle. Wycof restaurant: Complementary breakfast was tasty and excellent. You can enjoy candle light dinner in laung with very cool climate. Last but not least .. it is heaven.

The hotel was subpar compared to expectations, the rooms did not meet the standard depicted in the pictures, and the cost was too high. With this budget, there are better properties available nearby. However, the location and the quality of the food are the only advantages.

Located in entrance of coakers walk, had car parking space, room were traditional type but clean and neat, beds and pillows were comfortable, the room service was good and prompt, they had a small library and a video projector in lobby, one carrom board and chess board and business games were available. They provide umbrellas to use and return for guests. Wycof restaurant: The food was very tasty. Even though a bit pricy I’ll recommend. Complementary breakfast was also tasty, they follow order and eat for breakfast which is a good idea not to waste food.

A small property very well maintained and very much in proximity to Coakers walk, Bryant park n Lake.. The view from the restaurant was so mesmerising both in day time n at night.We booked at the last minute n we could get Travellers room which doesn’t have a view but had a small lounge leading into bedroom. The bed was small even for 3 so had to go for extra bed..Heater for the room, fireplace,Camp fire all comes with extra cost..They have provided. Kettle n tea bags as the restaurant opens at 7:30am only.Hot water 24hrs. No toiletries were provided. Dinner though the choice was less we loved few dishes n the desert with tender coconut was good. Breakfast is complementary but served n not buffet…From Roast pancakes to payasam we loved both the food n the view. The garden here was very well maintained..Just loved to see the blooms n greens all over..…
