    Very peaceful location. Property is well maintained and food was very good especially Bendekaayi palya with chapatis. Nice place to spend some quality time with friends and family away from work.

    Best staycation

    aditya s.couple

    I had a wonderful stay at this homestay! The hosts were incredibly warm, welcoming, and helpful throughout my visit. The room was clean, comfortable, and had all the basic amenities I needed. I especially loved the home-cooked food and peaceful surroundings — it really felt like a home away from home. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing, authentic experience.

    Not worth the money at all

    family with 2 kids

    We’ve stayed at other homestays before, but unfortunately, this one did not meet our expectations. There was no hot water available for showers, and during our stay, there was a complete power outage, forcing us to navigate in the dark just to use the restroom. This experience was quite disappointing, especially considering we paid for the stay. Charging the same rate during the monsoon season without ensuring basic amenities like electricity doesn't seem fair or reasonable.

    Wonderful Experience - The Hidden Valley is truly a hidden gem

    koustabh s.family

    We had an amazing stay at Hidden Valley! It exceeded our expectations in every way. The food was delicious and plentiful, with plenty of options for everyone. The hygiene and cleanliness were top-notch - the rooms and common areas were spotless. We felt safe and secure throughout our stay, and the staffs were always friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Arun, he was always available for anything we needed and fulfilled all our requirements. The care and attention to detail were impressive, especially when it came to our pet. Our pet was very happy and well-cared for. We would highly recommend Hidden Valley to anyone looking for a comfortable and relaxing stay.

    An Experiemce of Nature in coffee nad

    sandeep k.couple

    We had a good stay at Hidden valley. The property is located inside a coffee estate. We get the feeling of amidst nature surrounded by trees and coffee plantation. They have a small natural pond and a paddle boat too. If you are a nature lover this is right place for a getaway. They various types of rooms to accommodate small and large familes. The rooms are neatly maintained and the food is good. The care taker team is decent and hospitable. They organize camp fires adjacent to the pond based on request. We couldn't make use of it though. we used to take early morning walks inside the estate which was a fantastic experience. Our overall stay was good and would recommend to others too.

    This is one of the best stays one could ever stay. It looks like you are in the middle of mother nature. Rooms were clean and the food was served hot. We were a team of 10 people, each person enjoyed the stay at this place. I will personally want to visit this place next time and i will recommend this stay to anybody who loves living in the lap of mother nature. Thanks to hidden valley home stay team who made our trip comfortable and accessible.

    The hidden valley, when i have booked this hotel i don't have any idea about that but after going there it is too good and rooms are so hygiene and people received us good and hotel is totally covered with trees and we only feel nature there. And complementary break is too good, minimum they will provide 5 types of items and unlimited. I feel i want to visit again to that place.

    Enjoyable and peaceful stay with nature

    prabhu r.family

    Hidden valley is around 22 kms from chikmanglur city. The road leading to the homestay was good except the last 1 km. Stayed here for 2 days with family. Once we reached the homestay we were greeted with warm and friendly smile by santhosh. Sweet chap. Santhosh and his brother were very friendly and helpful and ensured our stay was comfortable. Hidden valley is surrounded by lush green plantations and has a lake (though water was less during summer. The place was very quiet and peaceful since it’s away from the main city. Food was good. Overall a great stay and feel very close to nature. Family thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Nice cosy dwelling

    ritesh m.family

    Property is around 10 km from mudigere and 22 km from chikmagalur town. It’s a nice property in 30 acre coffee estate. There are seven rooms having vintage feel. Henry uncle and rest of the team take good care of the guests. Food is fabulous and they adapt quickly based on guests needs. The last mile is yet to be tarred and may feel intimidating first time you approach the property, but later you realise it’s very easy. Even hatchbacks could easily navigate that stretch.

    vishal m.loyalty-icon

    - the facility itself is quite average. - the "annex" room which we booked didn't have much privacy - you could hear sounds from outside etc. The room decor was also just passable. - although it says guided tours in the name, there was none, not even a guided plantation walk. - food was clean and homely but average. However what salvaged the trip for us was the service by mr gautam who was managing the facility who did everything possible to make the stay comfortable.
