If you are going to Yercaud, there is only place to be in. Sterling resorts! None match the views Sterling has to offer. Amazing resort.
But, the resort is quite old. The rooms are not up to modern standards. They are not maintained clean. Common areas are disgustingly dirty.
Food is good, not very expensive. There are a number of things to do within the resort. In fact, I went there for a couple of days, and didn't leave the resort for the most part. You have a lady's seat view point and a rose garden next to the resort, we went by walk.
