About Purohit Residency
A story of passion, hospitality, and dedication to creating memorable experiences in the heart of Ooty

We take pride in being more than just accommodation - we're your gateway to discovering Ooty's hidden gems, colonial heritage, and breathtaking landscapes.
Our commitment to pure vegetarian hospitality stems from our deep-rooted values and belief in providing wholesome, healthy experiences that nourish both body and soul.
