The Himalayan Deodar

Review for The Himalayan Deodar, Kanatal The Himalayan Deodar is beautifully perched on a higher valley road in Kanatal, offering stunning views of the serene surroundings. However, reaching the hotel requires a trek of at least 1 km, during which luggage is transported via ponies. This adds a sense of adventure but may not be ideal for everyone. The location itself is picturesque and peaceful, making it a great spot for groups of friends or 2-3 couples traveling together. However, for a single couple, the remoteness and lack of connectivity during the trek (no network coverage) may raise concerns about safety and convenience. The owner is hospitable and ensures a warm stay, but I would recommend this property more for group trips to fully enjoy its unique location and ambiance. For couples traveling alone, exploring other options closer to the main road or with easier access might be a better choice.

Our stay at the himalayan deodar was a fantastic experience. The view was superb, and the staff went out of their way to welcome us, carry our luggage up the steep slope, bring extra blankets and care for us. Thanks to all of them. The breakfast and dinner were also very tasty.

The property is new rooms extremely clean hygienic host is warm welcoming and u get home food. Overall i had good stay just to mention here that to reach this property you have to climb uphill rocky terrian for 40 mins which becomes difficult especially when u have arrived after long driving one wants to rest not hike so consider this in mind that location is bful but be prepared to hike as u reach and way is natural foresty full of stones so wear sport shoes. Not recommended for senior citizens or anyone who has knee issue or climbing issue. Many of us want to crash on bed as we reach our hotels but when u know u have to hike for 40 mins to reach it's bit exhausting and tiring. But if u up for scenic natural hiking it's great place to be. Not recommended for senior citizens.
