Extremely rude and impolite owner. Went there with my family for lunch and the guy in charge basically denied service to us. When we asked him what is available from menu, he put both his feet on table and said "Nothing is available at the moment". We left the restaurant immediately. The whole experience ruined our whole trip.

We were very happy with the clean rooms. The cafe upstairs is tastefully done and you could spend hours there after ling hikes. There are several hikes from points adjoining the cafe. There is an open field/meadow like clearing across the road that attracts birds. They have driver rooms for drivers of guests who stay at the nearby upmarket resorts. It makes for interesting conversations if you wish. The food was very good as we had special requests for our children. It was beyond our expectations. The place has all necessary amenities, including wifi in a remote place. Thank you to kishore and everyone else who run the place.

This place is perfectly located at the base of the best birding trails and with a brilliant view of the valley below. The simba cafe location is ideal for colder days also as you get sun inside and on the grant terrace. There is an old shiva temple just across the approach road. Rooms also have undisputed view of the valley. Overall the place is strategically located, very clean and great value for money.
