Pros:

Excellent stay at this wonderful hotel. Don't forget to meet Tanny (German Shepherd) who is very well behaved and makes sure to escort you every time you step out of your room. Linen were clean, everything was in place. You get beautiful views. Access to the hotel is little difficult since the road to the hotel is too steep with full of gravel, if you go by car then an experienced driver will be an advantage

A peaceful and memorable stay with stunning views and great hospitality—I’d definitely return!

The location was excellent, and the property was neat and clean. The view from the property was stunning. Overall, I really enjoyed my visit and will definitely come back. I’ll also be recommending it to my friends!

Cons:

There’s really nothing major to dislike about the property. If I had to mention anything, a TV in the room would’ve been a nice addition, and the food quality could be slightly improved. That said, I absolutely loved the property overall—it was a great experience!

Could not have asked for anything more
Pros:

We stayed here for 5 days. The view, the food, and esp the hosts- everything was 10/10. The pets were very engaging. We did a bonfire, game night and a small trek. Very close tk the bhimtal market and cafes.

Cons:

The road to the homestay is not the best but we did manage to get the car up without any issues.

My honest experience
Pros:

Manika Homestay, Soangaon, Bhimtal – A Home Away from Home!

If you’re planning a trip to Bhimtal, look no further than Manika Homestay. Nestled in the charming village of Soangaon, this cozy little retreat has everything you need to unwind and feel at home. From the moment we arrived, the welcoming vibe of the place won us over.

The breakfast here deserves a special mention! It wasn’t just a meal; it was an experience. Freshly prepared and brimming with flavors, the food had a home-cooked charm that’s hard to beat. You could tell the ingredients were fresh, and the attention to detail was heartwarming.

The staff and caretakers were amazing—super helpful, friendly, and always there to make sure we were comfortable. It felt less like staying at a guesthouse and more like being part of a big, happy family.

Our room? Oh, it was perfect! Waking up to a breathtaking mountain view right outside our window was the best part. Add to that the serene scenic beauty of the valley, and it’s hard not to fall in love with this place. The surrounding greenery, chirping birds, and peaceful vibes make you want to pause time and just soak it all in.

The owners, a kind and generous young couple, truly made the stay memorable. Their hospitality was unmatched, and they went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. It’s rare to come across hosts who treat their guests like old friends—these two nailed it!

One of the highlights of our stay was the wholesome barbecue night. The homestay provides a barbecue facility, and it was an absolute hit. Sitting under the starry sky, enjoying delicious grilled treats, and sharing stories by the fire—it was everything you’d want in a perfect getaway evening.

In short, Manika Homestay is not just a place to stay; it’s a wholesome experience. If you’re looking for stunning views, heartfelt hospitality, and unforgettable memories, this is the spot for you. Can’t wait to come back! 🌟
Thank you, lovely host🥰
