10/10 Excellent

Ritika

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We had a beautiful stay at Rhotia Valley Tented Lodge. The staff was wonderful and very kind, especially Jumo. A portion of the money from your stay goes to the children's home located next to the hotel, which you are able to visit while staying there. The area and view around the hotel are beautiful, however there is a bumpy uphill road to reach the hotel. The dining room is a beautiful space as well and we had a wonderful meal there!

Sejour splendide

Le Lodge est magnifique. Le personel est adorable, les chambres originales et tres spacieuses et bien équipées, je remercie Asha pour le surclassement, au restaurant je remercie toute l'equipe et surtout Marie pour leurs services et beaux sourires. Je conseille vivement ce Lodge pour surtout les amoureux du calme et de la naure.
