The place is an absolute paradise if you are looking for relaxation from the everyday hustle bustle of city life. It is located a little away from the main Mall road, however, they have car transfers to drop and pick guests up from the Mall road. We have stayed here thrice since 1999, the quality has not deteriorated even one... More

From the car park, you go down some 25 steps to reach the reception, where the staff are warm and friendly. The whole place has a lovely old English charm about it. The rooms are fairly large with...

Went to Naini Retreat with family for 2N/3D. The property is excellent and so is the hospitality. We had a great time at Naini Retreat in terms of room comfort, good food and quality service. The view from the hotel is very good. The free car drop to the Mall & back was very beneficial. The walk to the lake... More

Staff is very helpful. Rooms are very nice. The food at the dinner buffet and breakfast is brilliant. They also offer a free drop off and pick up service to the mall road which makes things very accessible.Definitely worth a visit.
