    Reviews Summary

    Powered by Myra.AI

    This property offers a homely vibe and stunning views in a serene location surrounded by nature. Guests appreciated the warm hospitality and basic, freshly-prepared food, especially in the family suite. However, multiple reviews highlighted major cleanliness issues, poor service, and a lack of facilities. The remote location can be difficult to reach, and many felt the property didn't live up to the portrayed pictures. Limited staff and amenities were common complaints, indicating a struggle to provide consistent service.

    Stay at whispering pine

    muskan t.group

    It’s an amazing place with a very peaceful environment. Excellent view. Food was great and is served with great warmth. Place is a bit far from the main highway. Family suite is the best cottage they have. We enjoyed our trip to the fullest.

    Very bad experience

    kanwal k.family

    First time very bad experience in my whole life to stay here as i already travel-led in 6-7 countries. But at the time dinner, no arrangment, no dinner available, in morning at the time of check out, check out time is 11:30, they denied to serve only tea at the time of 11:10. They replied we are not free, we have lots of work. This is same exact answer from their side. We book almost with double rate as to see review & pics. But the behaviour of the staff is so bad. I suggest all of you not to visit anymore.

    Poor service and location

    satyam a.couple

    The hotel is in an isolated location and not at all safe for couples. The hotel staff is not cooperative and there is no mode of conveyance to go and buy anything, had to book a cab each and every time to go anywhere. The room service was really poor, each and every thing which I ordered was really bad in taste and expensive

    Dear Sir, thanks for taking out time to review, of course, we are 2 km away from the main market and highway, surrounded by pine forest and open valley view, but the property is absolutely safe, Sir.

    The place is a bit difficult to locate but in calling the staff you get easily guided to the place, the amenities are basic and service is quite slow. But a tranquil place to stay overnight.

    Located in Valley, outstanding view of the Valley, hotel staff is very friendly, food is very delicious because it is prepared fresh after placing order and taste can't tell in words it was so yummy! Roof top restaurant setup is most attractive part of hotel.

    A big absolute no no!

    anshul a.family

    First of all, Whispering Pines is not a Homestay HOTEL! It's an absolute misrepresentation of projecting itself as a homestay hotel; rather it's an isolated property, very remotely located, extremely difficult to reach, roads in bad shape,with no neighborhood, just next to a huge scrap heap in a forest like location. Once you reach the place ( we had to call up the owner to understand the right way to this property, GPS could not help) it's a huge disappointment to see the rooms, which were not even covered within some boundary or wall to mark some distinction of the rooms. The rooms needed some cleaning, as there was dust on the wooden ware and we were traveling with our 6 months old baby and needed absolute cleaned rooms. The linens even had spider and insects on it. Safety is a major, yes major concern!Since the surroundings were not covered at all, we had to think twice before leaving from one of the our rooms to the other at night! Talking about the Homestay: there is nothing called room service at all, there was just one-man Mr. pawan, whom we had to go to,every time we needed something to ask for. Mr. Pawan, though was a genuine man who cooked the food himself which was fresh and Delicious. The rooms had no room heaters as it got cold at night. All in all,it is more like a privately made rooms to generate revenue and nothing like providing effective service to the holiday seeking traveler! For a family stay a big no-no ! It's pricey and making fool out of people who trust MakeMyTrip travel portals. As we had requested cancellation of our second night stay at this place MakeMyTrip executive Neeraj Chauhan was very helpful as he understood our problem and sorted the issue out. Thanks and Kudos to him!

    My experience was really bad I hadn't stayed there because of it's location and facilities. Room was to small according to its cost. Location was weird there was only one person to look after. Location was not at all good.
