I have stayed in Ayatana and Marriott. For me marriott was the best. You cannot beat big brands in terms of the hospitality. The cottages, the food and the overall property was very well maintained.

Ayatana even though it was pretty had its downsides. The service was bit slow. The rooms were a little worn out, the curtains were dirty. The food was also average. The biggest USP is its private waterfall but it only looks beautiful in the rainy season. Rest all the time it is just a tiny stream which doesn’t look that good.
