Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with two king-size beds but lacks windows, making it feel congested. The service is very helpful and supportive, providing various amenities like room service and car hire. While the location is good for Garden views, it's a steep uphill from the Mall. The dining experience is average, and the facilities are decent.
The hotel offers a mixed experience with well-equipped rooms located at the backyard but lacking proper cleanliness in the bathrooms. The service is commendable with extremely courteous and cooperative staff, readily providing necessary amenities. The location has its perks, being close to a beautiful hilltop and opposite the High Court but is challenging for some due to the steep uphill from the Mall.

The dining spread offers a variety of food options but could be improved in terms of quality. The facilities are decent but overshadowed by the noisy surroundings.
The Deodar suite was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were very big with two TVs and a long bathroom, but the lack of windows made it suffocating. The room felt smaller than expected from the pictures and was overpriced. The service was decent, not as friendly as in other places but still cooperative. The location was quiet with a beautiful hilltop view, providing a calm atmosphere. The dining experience was average, could use some improvement in timing. Overall, it was an okay stay with some drawbacks to consider.

The hotel is conveniently located just next to the High Court in Nainital, offering a quiet place with a view of the beautiful hilltop in the background.
