The Naini Retreat, Nainital

4.0 star property
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (72)
"I was disappointed with the room.It definitely needed a refurbishing since it looked old and tired. The bathroom was particularly disappointing with a great deal of work to bring it to the star rating. The spa too could do with a facelift. The one place that I felt was 5 star was in the dinning room with the chef and the catering manager taking the accolade,overall a lovely place to stay at."

"Awesome stay at solitude. The staff is amazing and food is also very nice. Its very secluded and sound of river is very relaxing. They don't server liquor so make sure you get your own stuff, but they can arrange if you have not bought it but it would take some time. The river is not ideal for bath as the rocks are too slippery but you can sit at the side and enjoy tea/beer/soup. They also have small track to almost private waterfall named paritaal which is also amazing. "
