    Dear Mr. Tripathi, Thank you for providing your feedback regarding your recent one-night stay. Peak Season Room Allocation: We acknowledge the initial delay during the check-in process. Given the peak season period (August), our occupancy was at its maximum, leading to limited immediate room availability. We are pleased, however, that our manager was ultimately successful in securing and allocating a Suite Room with Mountain View for your reservation. We prioritize accommodating all confirmed bookings, even under challenging circumstances. Immediate Resolution of Food Order: We deeply regret the error concerning your dinner order, specifically receiving non-Jain items (onion salad and sabji) instead of your requested Jain food (no onion). This mistake occurred due to the significant volume and associated rush within the restaurant at that time. We note that the correct meal was immediately prepared and delivered to you on the spot as soon as the issue was brought to our attention, minimizing the disruption to your dining experience. We value your patronage and hope you will grant us the opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to delivering the highest standards of hospitality

    Not a Peaceful place, Pure Veg, Jain Food restraun

    amit m.family with 2 kids

    Location is at upper pelling , they don't upgrade despite room being vaccant(complementry upgrade was offered in mmt package), staff is quite unwelcoming and ignorant, wifi doesn't work half the time during night, TV has only free to air channels(Appears as they can't afford recharges), For room service they never attend at first call, even after you go down to reception and ask for something , it would take an eternity to get to you. The only Plus point of this Hotel is that it has a Jain Restraunt and food served is good. But the kind of crowd comes here is mostly rowdy, you can't have peaceful time at this property, They didn't allowed a couple to cut cake in waiting area which was cleaner and have good ambience but compelled them to do that in Restraunt. They don't have party hall but allow party people to play loud till late night at the cost of peace of all other guests. During meal timing restraunt view is like a Dharmashala Langer, fully chaotic. So if you prefer jain like in our case , it is not a good reason to book in this hotel, there is another Pure Veg and Jain food servi g Restraunt in upper pelling. Based on my personal experience it is not a good place for any peaceful holiday. Rest is up to individuals taste and liking. Even MMT doesn't have any control over anything once you paid and checked in the property, they can give you mere 15 20% of amount in form of voucher which can't be clubbed with any other offer at time of another booking. It was kind of spoiled holiday for us

    Poor Stay

    ankit k.couple

    The only good thing about the hotel was the view of snow clad mountains in the morning. Our bathroom had a nice big spider roaming around. The service was rude, they simply rang the doorbell at 7.30 in the morning demanding us to place the breakfast order, same thing in the evening. The hotel shut the front door, locked the shutters at 9.30pm when we were returning from dinner. It was completely unexpected and we had to find a back way in complete darkness. The hotel management was also evasive about some genuine date change request we made, saying they can't do anything, only MMT can etc. Eventually I had to pay for a whole extra night, because both MMT and the hotel kept putting the responsibility on each other.

    Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted you enjoyed the beautiful snow-clad mountain views. We sincerely regret the overall dissatisfaction experienced during your stay. We wish to clarify the operational challenges you noted: Hygienic Environment: As we are situated in a hilly area, insects can occasionally enter if windows or doors are left open. We have reinforced pest control efforts. Restaurant Timings: Breakfast orders were requested at 7:30 AM in compliance with strict, communicated restaurant operation timings designed for efficient service. Hotel Closure: The closure of our main door at 9:30 PM is a mandatory security protocol enforced by local authorities for all establishments in the region. Booking Amendments: Your request for date changes could not be accommodated as the reservation was made under a Non-Refundable policy, which prohibits amendments or cancellations. We value your business and hope that, understanding these necessary regulations and policies, you will consider staying with us again.
