Charekh Food & Forest Resort

Pros: 1. Very peaceful place: Only 3 hotels in charekh hillstation. Its a small and quiet hill station. People who enjoy peace would fall in love with this place. 2. Service and management is very nice: Everything was timely which i loved. 3. Kids friendly place: It has park with rides and lots of options for both indoor and outdoor games. 4. Weather is nice : Charekh is at a higher altitude than Lansdowne, so better weather. Only Con: 1. Road to charekh is very difficult: its a steep uphill, last 8-10 km there is no road and no population. Road is under construction, may be motorable by next year.

Nice property for relaxation and view one can spend good time with family and friends . Way to reach there is very good be skilled Food is awsome weather is preferable sunrise and sunset is remarkable Early morning walk on property is advised for beauty and piece of mind

Hotel is at a good hight, so weather was pleasant. Calm and peaceful surroundings in the resort, loved seating in the shade of oak tree, resting in rope hammock in the middle of lush green garden, very tasty food specially french fries and a loo chat

Have been there in first week of October, it is situated at top of a very high hill. You can see cloud formation underneath and weather is just so lovely. Keep your tour to atlast 3-4 nights, else you will regret..it is that much beautiful and charming. What a peace and place !

Resort stay was good. The way to resort is somewhere repairable. Food and hospitality is excellent

CAN'T COMPLAIN ABOUT THE STAY AS AT THIS LOCATION YOU GET EVERYTHING ( PRETTY MUCH ) AS YOU DESIRE . RESORT PEOPLE WERE FRIENDLY AND ACCOMMODATING. THEY KEEP YOUR REQUEST . BEAUTIFULLY MAINTAINED GARDEN AND OUTDOOR SITTINGS . VERY GOOD PLACE TO UNWIND AND RELAX . JUST GO FOR IT .

Very nice property, good hospitality but approach is very difficult

Overall good experience….Hygiene was not so good..

This review am penning in down for the future travelers to this location/travelers for visiting jimcorbet area. Charekh resort is located around 22 km from the mainland ie kotdwar. Will start with the route to the property first. Route to the property is not adventurous, its dangerous. The road is not at all maintained. There may b around 80 hairpin bends and majority without any side barrier. And the route is also lanslide prone. By luck once you reached the location, then you will feel like you are trapped. No way you can choose any other hotels because there's no civilisation near to this and to return back to kotdwar back is not at all a option. And for corbet visitor like me, the schedule was morning jungle safari, u have to reach the pakhro gate by 6 am. For that one have to start from this property by atleast by 4 am. For that due to this dangerous route only option is now to hire a vehicle from property / hire a driver from there. Both option again a business for them. Now about the property. As i mentioned driving through this road and reaching there the attitude of staff there will b like. We will decide what all to offer, not the customer preference, as they know he or she cannot take another option now. The front office chap told me no wifi can be provided at my room and not even a phone in the room as they dont want the guest to decide when to call even the front desk. They will send a room boy to room when they wishes. They dont even provided any toiletries other than a bath towel. And now about the food. The menu again the resort staff will decide what you should eat. Some specific stuff they have kept inside refrigerator and from that they will cook and serve. Morning buffet i asked for a fried egg and that too they cant provide as the in charge told me only omelette can be served. Even for a simple egg, there is no option. They must have made a omelette batter and kept in refrigerator and making omelette from that. And finally while checking out, given a hat as complimentary. If they really want to give a hat to the guest, it should have been given while checking in as it may have helped the guest for using on jungle safari. Totally clueless staff. Or may b they thought the guest may buy that(again business. Giving one point for a staff named mukesh. He is the only one reason am giving one point to the property. Otrwse nothing to even call or name its a resort. Its just a hotel only.
