From Chaos to Calm - a very peaceful stay!
Pros:

This is the closest resort if you wish to visit Babaji's Cave. Lovely view of the valley and away from the city traffic.
The Staff - Kavita Ji, Neha, Bhavna, Riya, Geetika, Sunita & Lata were extremely hospitable and accommodated our requests right from arranging the trek to Babaji's cave, sharing stories, and ofcourse the food served - it was Awe-mazingly delicious (Ghar ke khaane ka swaad)- simple food yet cooked and served with lot of love and reverence. Will definitely come again!! :)

Cons:

There was no wifi in the rooms (only in the reception area) but I understand that it serves the purpose of disconnecting with technology and outer world and connecting with oneself.

Excellent property to stay to visit Babaji’s cave
Pros:

The property is constructed and maintained very well, the staff are a total all women team who are attentive to details and attend to every need in a patient quiet manner….. The food is excellent home style food served….

Cons:

We felt it was over priced for the location - most people coming are for pilgrimage and not tourist holiday, hence slightly lower pricing will get more customers…..

The staff is an all woman crew and they are just so efficient and warm! The food was so tasty and left us satiated! Love
Pros:

It was serene and perfectly tuned to our spiritual journey. The rooms were very clean and comfortable! The view from the entire property is spectacular! We particularly enjoyed the meditation room. It was blissful!

Cons:

No complaints as such! Just that there is no network in this place. So if you are someone who can’t do without your gadgets, this place is not for you!

On the other hand, it’s the perfect place to be with yourself and introspect without digital disturbance! We wanted just that! So we loved it!!
