Bentes Lodge

Sure! Here’s a more polished version of your review: The property is quite remote and may not be ideal for elderly guests due to its location. The area was quite chilly, being surrounded by mountains, and it took a long time for hot water to come through the pipes. Additionally, there were many flies in the common area, which was unpleasant, especially as they would fall into tea or coffee left in the dining space. However, the overall location was beautiful and the food was quite good.

I had a delightful stay at Bentes Lodge in Pahalgam. The lodge offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and lush greenery, creating a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms were clean, cozy, and well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable stay. The staff was incredibly warm and attentive, going out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. The location is perfect, offering easy access to popular tourist spots. I highly recommend Bentes Lodge for anyone seeking a relaxing and memorable experience in Pahalgam.

It was cozy and stay with best view. Only issue was with road near stay but that too was not a big issue. Host Jamshed was best and very helpful.

I had an incredible stay at this hotel! From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive. The location is perfect, offering breathtaking views that made my experience even more special. The rooms were spotless, spacious, and beautifully designed, providing both comfort and luxury. The food was another highlight—delicious, fresh, and with a great variety to choose from. Every meal felt like a treat! The amenities were top-notch, and the overall service exceeded my expectations. Whether you're looking for relaxation or adventure, this hotel has it all. I highly recommend it and would love to return for another stay!

Lovely location, peaceful, awesome blossom food and they will specially prepare fresh for the client and the caretake is very caring and helpful

location mentioned was wrong, also,hot water not available during morning bath..Not a good experience at all

Visited this cottage on the first week of october 2024. It's almost 2. 5 kms from main market. 70% of the road has been newly constructed. So we didn't have any issues reaching this place as mentioned in earlier comments. Upon reaching there, we experienced such breathtaking views that we forgot about all the tiredness accumulated throughout the kashmir trip. We were helped immensely by both majid bhai(manager) and mehraj bhai(helper. They even arranged bonfire at night which made the trip memorable with other guests at the cottage. Food served was simple but best among all that we experienced in kashmir. Rooms and bathroom were neat and clean. Will definitely visit again.

My recent visit to kashmir with a group of 10 family friends we stayed at pahalgam bent-en lodge. The location of the hotel excellent surround of trees, hills if like to stay in nature this is a perfect place. Rooms are good the staff very cooperative. Food no doubt very tasty. Only problem with road. You have to do trekking few meters to reach the hotel. Senior citizens and knee problem persons it is difficult.

it's located at a peaceful corner at forest block of pahalgaam.location is excellent in terms of view but be prepared for trekking to your resort for almost 1 km one side as road condition leading to the property is not best. Food and hospitality is excellent.You will get homely vibes with excellent view

Due to restoration being done, fresh paint smell is a strong deterrent. No wardrobes in rooms. Needs a lot of sprucing to be done. However excellent location and people are very warm.

I visited the place in the month of jun e with my family of 6 members including two senior citizens. There is no doubt about the mesmerizing view you will forget all your pain once you reach the place. Food is superb and all care taker are supportive, majid bhai, mukhtar bhai only concerns, it is on the height and the road to the lodge is so worst for the senior citizens. Basic services must be provided without asking again and again.

It was a wonderful experience with the best view and amazing service. I had a really fun time the staff was also amazing.

pleasant stay midst the Beauty of nature , Awesome food. loved everything here, Have had a very good experience

Location - 5/5 - in terms of view, the location is excellent. You can see mountain peaks and beautiful gardens- all through your room window. Please note, the motor-able road to this hotel is right now (june, 2024) in bad condition, so you might need to hire large cars from pahalgam union taxi stand to reach here as not all cars can drive to this road. Room size - moderate enough, the washroom was spacious with a large mirror. The window was large, giving an excellent view of the outside. Cleanliness and smell - very clean, no damp smell facilities and service - wifi was good, back up lights when electricity was gone. The staff here are very friendly and helpful. Food quality - excellent. We tried some biriyani, pulao, milk tea, omelette - these were very tasty and healthy. The homemade yoghurt they serve with biryani dishes was very delicious. It was not sweetened, and that’s why i liked it even more. Specialty - the view and quietness of this place are unparalleled. And their food is so homely. Things that can be improved - when power is cut, one charging point from the back up power can be helpful

Location view is amazing and nature at its best view …food was fresh and delicious…owner and staff was very helpful

We stayed at bent-es lodge in june, and it was fantastic. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure a perfect stay. The food was outstanding. You will get fresh home cooked food. The view was breathtaking. I highly recommend this stay for an unforgettable experience.

Stay and people are awesome. Location is remote but best place for beautiful nature. Bikers be aware for the roads are bit bad. But doable.

Amazing stay due to awesome location, staff and hospitality. Bent-es lodge is a true gem for eco-conscious travelers. The resort seamlessly blends nature with sustainability, offering a memorable experience. The rooms are spacious, beautifully designed and the staff’s commitment is commendable. An unforgettable experience in a pristine natural setting.

It’s worth all the hustle for reaching here on top. As the experience, the view and most importantly the staff here will ensure everything at its best! highly highly recommended for all to get this wholesome experience at least once.
