Bengaluru, India, October 2025 : Celeste by MindEscapes has been recognised in the global
Tripadvisor’s® Travelers’ Choice® Awards for 2025. Tripadvisor’s Travelers’
Choice Award winners are among the top 10% of listings around the world on
Tripadvisor.
Of almost 8 million listings on Tripadvisor globally,
less than 1% receive a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and opinions
from the traveller community. Measured over a 12-month period, the awards are
based on feedback and reviews of guests who have actually experienced the
hospitality, cuisine, and service of the restaurant. It is this which sets
these awards apart, making the achievement a commendable milestone.
Dipali Sikand, Founder MindEscapes and the brain
behind Celeste said “Receiving the Tripadvisor
Travellers’ Choice Award is a matter of honour and recognition of every cook
who stayed late, every server who paused to check if guests are enjoying the
meal, every gardener who made the paths fragrant, every smile of welcome that
went beyond just duty. We thank each of our guests for their generous praise
and recognition of our effort to make Celeste synonymous with delicious food,
and warmth that can only come from the heart”
As the world’s largest travel guidance platform,
Tripadvisor has unparalleled authority with travellers and diners. This award
is based on genuine feedback from anyone in the community who has visited and
left an authentic, first-hand review on Tripadvisor over a 12-month period,
making it a valuable and trustworthy designation of travellers’
favourites.
Congratulating the Celeste by MindEscapes team, Kristen
Dalton, President, Tripadvisor said “Ranking among the top percentage
of businesses globally means you have made such a memorable impact on your
visitors that many of them took time to go online and leave a glowing review
about their experience. We hope this recognition continues to drive business to
you in 2025 and beyond.”
Celeste has gone on to become a landmark in Ketti
Hills. It is more than a restaurant tucked in the Nilgiris – it is a labour of
love, an act of community and a place where strangers become friends over food,
views and shared moments.
