Poor amenities, greedy staff, terrible experience

TLDR; This place is a scam The amenities are very poor, with geysers, flushes and locks that don't work, and the service is even worse. Despite repeated requests, the staff makes no effort to address any of our concerns. The place is secluded from the rest of Lansdowne and the staff takes every opportunity to extract money from you. If you want to go to and from Lansdowne city from this hotel, be prepared to pay Rs. 1000 every time for a taxi that can drive through the narrow, broken road. The food available is heavily overpriced and average at best. When we got food from outside (which they had explicitly allowed, by the way), they charged us Rs. 500 just to heat the food and wash the cutlery. Our total bill was well over 60K. This demand of Rs. 500 on such a large bill just showcases the greed of the staff who are only concerned with money. Our experience was so poor that even though our stay was supposed to be for 3 nights, we were desparate to leave after the 2nd. Again, the owner was absolutely not willing to be at all cooperative and charged us for all 3 nights. We left anyways because we just could not stand staying in that place for another night. On call, the owner had the gall to say "why should I take a loss for you". I'll answer that - because our experience was so bad that we literally had to vacate a day earlier. He failed to fulfill his simple responsibility of leaving his customers satisfied. And still took full payment. By far the worst moment of our short trip.

Bad Service...Zero Management

Terrible...Pathetic... 1. Location - 3KM from Main Road on a katcha wicket. Not scary but need to drive carefully. Resort is surrounded by Forest from one side and Open Mountain from another side. It was very windy weather for 2 days, can't do much outside activities. 2. Room Amenities - Just a Bed, CRT TV and Table Chair. No Almirah, Dressing etc. It doesn't even have a landline to call room service. Go to reception and place order if you want to have anything. Taps are leaking, doors are cracking and ceiling ready to fall on our head. Even noticed for first time, shower just above the commode, maybe they want us to shower while sitting on commode. 3. Management - Management seems to be very pathetic. They were always fighting with employees. We were not served dinner one night because they were fighting with each other. So, we have to sleep empty stomach. 4. They have some swings and jhoola installed which was quite a timepass. 5. Food has to be ordered in 2-3 hours advance. It was prepared nicely but they didn't served us the food on our 2nd night because a fight broke out between them. And since it was a lonely area, we can't order from any where else. Overall - The place is avoidable. You have to follow up for each and every thing. Not recommended for people looking to relax. I booked this hotel seeing the reviews on Tripadvisor but I am disappointed.

I had visited Lansdowne for a short 2 day trip. Hill View Shantiraj Resort is an isolated resort located around 3.5 kms from Lansdowne Market. The management gave me a nice discount for my stay. The manager came to collect me on his bike at the Lansdowne bus stop. I reached the resort in around 15 minutes with this bike ride. The best part of this resort is its peaceful location, with views of mountains on both sides (East and West). I sat in the garden for both breakfast and lunch. In the afternoon, the manager sent me with his kid to a spring (small waterfall) around 20 minutes walking distance from the resort. People would enjoy taking a dip in this spring as the water seemed fresh and shallow. In the night I was served with some chicken for dinner. The food in the resort is in accordance the resources available to them. The rooms are decent and down to the basics. People who are looking for more luxury, should look elsewhere.There is a water heater in each room for a hot shower. For kids the resort has swings etc. The night had strong winds. The sound of the wind touching the roof was beautiful. I slept listening to that sound. The sound of crickets is always there in the background along with the wind, be it morning or night. The next day morning after a breakfast I checked out of the resort. I walked from the resort to Lansdowne market. It took me around an hour for this upward walk. One can enjoy the view of the pine trees and mountains, stop by along the way and proceed upwards slowly. It could be considered as a mini-trek. For people who don't prefer to walk, a vehicle can be arranged by the hotel staff. Once I reached the market, I walked around to see the other popular spots such as St. John church, St. Mary's church, Tip-in-top, and Bhulla Tal before taking my bus back to Kotdwar. Then I proceeded to Delhi. Overall, I had a happy and peaceful stay. The staff is friendly and cordial. The facilities available in the resort are basic but comfortable. The best part of this resort is its peaceful location. Its meant for people who want to enjoy being with nature.

This hotel is located way out of the city and deep into the dense wood.. the only road connecting the hotel and the city is almost a challenging off-roading track.. There is no other habitation nearby this place as it is situated on top on a mountain and you can see the other mountain ranges.. Full points to its location and hospitality.. Trust me the food is soo yummy and delicious and the campfire site is one of the best I've ever seen.. You can opt for going to the dense forest at midnight to make your journey remembering forever if you live through it as you might meet few cheetah's while tracking.. Overall it is a place you'll add to your all time favourites..
