Hotels in The Nilgiris

The Nilgiris district covers the hill stations of Ooty (Udhagamandalam), Coonoor and Kotagiri, spread across rolling tea estates and shola forests. The cool climate has drawn visitors since colonial times.

The Nilgiri Mountain Railway, part of the UNESCO-listed Mountain Railways of India, climbs from Mettupalayam to Ooty. Doddabetta, the highest peak in the Nilgiris, and the Government Botanical Garden in Ooty are classic stops.
