We went to Mahabaleshwar with a Bunglow booking which got cancelled at the last moment. That's when we chanced upon Surya Retreat - the location enthralled us - view of the valley was breathtaking and the rooms were exquisite. The experience was awesome - the early morning at the resort gives an unmatched high. Then a trip to the river... More

We stayed for 2 nights with AP Plan. Hotel is well maintained and swimming pool is nice. Great view of the green jungle from the rooms. Very quite as the rooms are facing the jungle and not the road. Food was alright, nothing facny, mostly North Indian food. Breakfast was very good and many options like eggs, bread, corn flakes,... More

The hotel has a huge structure with funny architecture. It has no elevator! Front desk was not so friendly to begin with. We arrived just 15 minutes late for lunch and had informed them in advance about it but were not cooperated with. We had to accept some snacks instead. At times they would not even answer the phone!

The location is valley facing but not splendid or something. If you have own 4wheeler then its ok otherwise local transport facility is to be used. Bus or share omni car useful. Private cab hiring is costly. To go to market from hotel is Rs. 200. For sightseeing you have to hire a cab (with different rates based on the... More

Hotel Location is excellent. Rooms are good. Rates are high for the rooms and service The main drawback was they gave an avoidable buffet dinner claiming it to be free ( even after rechecking at the front desk) and later made us pay for it. More

The hotel is located 4 kms before Mahabaleshwar, hence it is convenient if you have your own vehicle. The staff is very efficient and helpful. While we were given the option to select our rooms, the staff had recommended the rooms with the best view. We were 4 families and we were given adjacent rooms. All the rooms had fantastic... More

One thing that gets your attention as soon as you enter the hotel is the amazing view of the valley. The hotel is right on the slope of hills overlooking the lush green valley. The building has been designed to leverage this - all the rooms are facing the valley with large sit-outs . We stayed at this place in... More

Overall this is a great hotel. We were looking for a place with a beautiful view and we were lucky to have a room last minute. View from the room was spectacular. All what you hear is the noise from waterfall, birds and frogs. We really felt disconnected from the city. Food was good and I recommend this resort to... More
