Jim's Jungle Retreat Reviews, Corbett

The hotel is located very well and they were able to provide daily excursions into the forest with a guide who knew his way around - although he seemed to be a bit short of the knowledge and insights that could have made the trips even more interesting. The main dining area was being refurbished and the noise from that made the stay a bit less relaxing. Food was so - so (a bit too spicy for our taste) and a couple of notches lower than what you would expect when you are paying as much for the stay. The rooms were well appointed though and the cottage interiors were clean and done up in a very nice way. Also, hotel staff was a bit inflexible about our request to postpone a safari that came included with the package and said that if we did not take it then it would be considered availed of. All in all, good property but bad services.

Jim's jungle retreat's stay will make sure your time is well spent and you relax enough in the lap of nature. It's near to Jhirna gate but a bit far off from hustle and bustle near Bijrani gate. Overall a very good family stay.

Thanks

I booked two Safari tent Jim Jungle Retreat. I went for the first time along with my family. I booked my hotel booking through makemytrip.com to get the best prices and services. We reached their on 17th april morning and Jeep was waiting for us to take to resort. The check in was very smooth. Food is really good, One should take all meal package because their is no restaurants near by and second the food is awesome one should not miss that. The hotel staff is the best I have seen,very polite and courteous. Everyone is very passionate about their work and especially their respect and love for Jungle can be seen. Mr. Imran khan director of the resort is extremley knowledgeable person. esp his knowledge about the birds is unmatchable. We went for three safari, two jeep safari and one elephant safari. All arrangements has been done by the hotel mgmt. Overall its perfect place to stay away from all the clutter it is inside the buffer zone of the park and very close to Jhirna gate.

Surely Value for money. A must place to visit. Food was amazing courtsey Chef Deepak.

If there was any rating higher than 5, I would have given that to the resort. The experience was such that we will be going back to the same resort again by the end of this year. The service was just excellent! Such value for money is very rare anywhere in the world. The kind of arrangements they made for us in such a short span of time was just amazing. KUDOS to the hotel staff! Specially Mr. Majid and Mr. Imran...

It was an excellent experience. The resort is perfect for people looking for the real feel of jungle. Quite close to Jungle, very well served by staff people. Nature walks and bicycle drives are awesome. Like to specifically mention Majid, as someone who is rich with his experience and talks from heart. A place worth visiting...more than once.

My wife and I had visited Corbett on 18th July. Had booked Jim's Jungle Retreat for two days. Had an excellent time there. We were reaching Ramnagar in the night at 9 PM. The hotel incharge Mr Majid contacted me beforehand and asked about our arrival time and whether I would need a pickup from the station itself. Even though our booking was impromptu, he arranged everything so that we can reach the resort comfortably. Reaching there we met Mr Khan who is the owner of the resort. It was a delight speaking to him. We told him about our plan. He prepared a nice itinerary to fit our schedules. Food was delicious, safari tents were very neat and clean with all the necessary amenities. Highly recommended for the people visiting Corbett. Would definitely plan another trip to Corbett and without a doubt book my stay in Jim's Jungle retreat. Thanks. Sumit.

Fantastic hotel, Great staff and food. One of the best resorts I have ever stayed. Very helpful Mgr - Majid, organizsed safaris, natural walks, biking etc. Must stay for your next visit to Corbett.

'Jims Jungle Retreat', it can better be called a small village in a jungle with all the facilities. Away from the crowd, well maintained and peaceful, it feels more like a home in a jungle. Cute safari tents, beautiful cottages and huge lodges. I am running out of words to describe this place. Pebbles lying all over the path appealed me a lot. Place near the pool is best for long evenings with candle lights. On the last night of our stay, me and my guy were the only couple out there. We felt like "king n Queen'. The staff is really good. My guy cooked dinner for me in their kitchen. It would be unfair on my part if I don't mention about the long, calm, knowledge sharing evenings with good drinks. Safari for the first time in my life. We were charged by a baby elephant 'Albeli" so pampered, so elegant was she but a bit moody too. We enjoyed each n every single thing out there.
