We been to Mussoorie - Dhanaulti many time, but Kanatal was our first trip and I would say Kanatal was really a hidden gem for those seeking a peaceful and rejuvenating getaway. The resort we booked “The Woods by Aaryam Resort, Kanatal” was really “Awesome”. We booked “Premium Cottage” and above cottage was really beautiful and made completely with wooden. It was a charming accommodation, stunning location (Top of the mountain- 360° View), thoughtful amenities, and warm hospitality, this cottage resort provides an unforgettable experience. Whether you're a couple looking for a romantic retreat, a family in search of quality time in nature, or an individual craving solitude, The Woods By Aaryam offers an oasis where you can disconnect from the noise of everyday life and reconnect with the beauty of the natural world. Prepare to embark on a tranquil journey and create cherished memories that will linger long after your departure.

Best experience in The Woods, Kanatal. The open sitting is awesome. The only thing is you have to pay for heaters which are usually provided in such areas. Still, a great place to spend some quality time with friends and family.

Lovely property on top of the hill. They don't have a designated parking space as the road to property from main road is a bit narrow. After that there is a steep climb ( not suitable for kids under 3 and senior citizen's).

Cafe or the common dining area is lovely,you can see the snow capped mountains if the weather is clear. The temprature in October was around 3 degrees in night and 10 to 15 degrees on a sunny day.

Best thing is the food, everything on the menu tastes awesome, special 5 star for the chef and the staff.

There is live music every evening, add the special touch. Overall best for a relaxing weekend.

The highlight of the property is location, breathtaking views and sunset. As they are just 2 years old, lot of work needs to be done in training the staff when it comes to cleaning and attending the guests. The bathroom was stinking as there was an issue with the drainage pipes. Bedsheets and pillow cover looked worn and not washed. Food was average and whenever asked to prepare something from the menu one or the other ingredients went missing. Looked half hearted attempt from both cafeteria and housekeeping staff. Not recommending to my friends! There are better properties in the vicinity.

The resort i find is not comfortable on two grounds. (i) the light weight material material used for its construction is totally ineffective in providing heat insulation inside the room. there was hardly difference in outside and inside temperature causing severe discomfort during severe cold season. (ii) the rooms has been erected in steel structure and the floor of the rooms start vibrating when someone climb the staircase or in case of strong wind, causing disruption in sleep. also this the reason for keeping room walls light weight and without insulation.

the staff denied to provide hot air blower on the pretext that light weight walls do not bear such hot air.

cost of food is also exorbitant and do not match with the class of accomodation. the visitors do not find any alternatives because being far away from the main town and also due to non approachable by vehicles.

i will therefore not recommend at all or atleast the rent they charge and amenities they provided.

Nice location with amazing views. Good food. Not suitable for elders through. Overall nice experience as we had rains during our day and it added to the pleasant weather. Bonfire and all with music was good. Parking is available at base of hotel. Climb is some 50 stairs. Jio network available bit Airtel will struggle. Wifi there in rooms. You can see sunrise and sunset right from your balconies

I would like to give special appreciation to the members namely Sagar, Manager Arvind and CHEF Rohit. The hospitality of all the staff was excellent and polite. The food was absolutely yumm for all the verities. They went extra mile for us to have special options which were not even in the buffet section. Even our booking was done so smooth directly by Sagar. Rooms and the resort are very well maintained with a great view. Overall, I am very satisfied with my stay and recommend it to all.

Overall it is just average property 3/5, but location is best.

Location 4.5/5
Service 3/5

Very risk & Difficult to reach to resort in big car and no one to guide or stop from entering small road and after getting inside small road, difficult to make u turn and come back. They shd have kept some security person to guide outside .

View from resort is very good as it is on quite height..

Rooms 3/5

No tv no fan no AC no wardrobe.

Flush not working properly bathroom. Hot water issue - after one person takes bath, second one has to take bath in cold water.

Family room is bigger and 2 beds , suggest to book family room if staying with 1+ kids.

Toiletries - nothing except shower gel and shampoo.

500ml 2 bottle provided in room, next bottles were chargeable.

Restaurant - 3.5/5

Restaurant reception common sitting area all at one place. Only place with TV. Food was good 4/5.
But overpriced. Buffet has limited options and ala carte cost 3 times buffet . We had high tea included and for dinner they told u can decide buffet or select 4-5 item and choose ala carte , but in the end, 4-5 items ordered separately costed 3 times then buffet.

Suggestions
1. Keep transparent billing, on checkin they shd explain inclusion in high tea, dinner options, water etc.
2. Should have one garden/lawn area where kids can play. Very small narrow path is there no actual playground or garden. And 2 swings r there.
3. Shd keep indoor play area besides reception.
4. Shd improve toilet , hoy water facility and keep security before entry.
