Te Aroha by Shervani group is an excellent resort to spend your holiday away from the noise of the city. Located at Dhanachuli, which is approximately 18 minutes away from Mukhteshwar main market area, This property is beautiful, well designed, use of beautiful bold soothing colors, giving theme to each room or area, and has an excellent collection of antique items, which will keep you engaged and inspire you to explore the entire property.
The resort is overlooking another hill, and the sunset view from the room/bed is mesmerizing. During the winter, the view of the snow filled Himalayan ranges is clearly visible from the rooms/balcony. Which makes this property even more interesting.
The drive from Kathgodam/Bhim Tal is smooth, the roads are good, and people who love to drive will enjoy driving around the mountain roads. The welcome drink made of local buransh flowers, along with a warm towel to clean your face, was refreshing. The entire team led by Mr. Devendra is excellent, and they will all ensure that your stay at the resort is memorable.
Ample car parking along the road near the property or inside the property allows hassle-free parking, and the walk to the room from the reception is refreshing while you pass by apple, plum, peach, akhrot, pear, and many more trees along with beautiful flower laden plants. The area for the bonfire and swing is not to be missed in the evening.
Each room has a different theme, and the furniture, bed. The chairs are all antique in nature, and the ambience of the room and the view from the room towards the valley/mountain are beautiful. The room service is very quick, and the food is very tasty. A special mention goes to Mr. Kali Das, Mr. Mukesh, Mr. Pankaj, and Chef Prakash ji and his team. The food spread is well thought through, and everything prepared is very tasty. Mr. Mukesh from Restaurant understands very well his guest requirements and goes the extra mile to take care to explain the menu and the food options to his guests.
The trip organized by the resort in the morning to go for mountain trekking and the evening trip to the village/orchid in the valley area were excellent. The morning trip takes 1+ hours, and the evening trip takes 3+ hours, approx.. and requires lots of walking. People who are having difficulty in walking/climbing should avoid it.
It is highly recommended to spend at least 3-5 hours exploring the property, including the museum/play area/reading area/inner part of the restaurant with old nostalgic Bollywood posters/photos. A special mention goes to Mr. Devendra, Mr. Gaurav, and Mr. Rajendra for all the hospitality.
The entire team is well trained/groomed under the leadership of Mr. Devendra, and he is always available to support/guide the guest, right from travel guidance to cab booking to guidance on traveling to the property.
It is a beautiful resort and highly recommended, if you are traveling to Mukhteshwar.

The beds were warm and cosy and continuous supply of warm water made our day. Yummiest food ever served, esp. the coconut chutney served with idli, omg the smoothness took my heart away. The most courteous staff and calm and picaresque property.

Te aroha is a piece of solitude nestled in quite hills of dhanachuli where one can experience the sound of silence with unmatched comfort and great hospitality. The staff is very hospitable and decent, they walk an extra mile to make their guests feel comfortable at all times. Food was delicious (both vegetarian and non vegetarian) . The clear and panaromic view of snow clad Himalayas from te aroha on a clear day is pure delight . Thanks a lot team te aroha.

We came to this spot after a long day’s journey. The staff was very welcoming and cheerful, they made sure we were comfortable and provided us all the information needed. Although this might be a big hotel chain, they run it like a family run business with brings about the warmth in their services. The property is beautiful and the rooms excellent!! We had dinner with a view of the sparkly lights on the mountains across us and enjoyed a short guided hike around the property. The sunset was spectacular! I’ll definitely recommend this place to anyone and everyone! Good job guys

Placed on a hill top near Mukteshwar, this is a hidden treasure. You will be blown away by the snowscape views from throughout the property. All rooms that they have are differently designed and decorated with unique features in each. They have a dedicated 2BHK villas & 3BHK villa option which is unparalleled and perfect for families. It has all necessary features like activity room, library, bon-fire etc that will keep one engaged. Food is quite good especially their local kumaon cuisine. Definitely a must visit place.

I stayed for less than 24 hours but the memory will be forever. Such exquisitely crafted rooms, a marvellous cafe and the delicious food - we had pahadi and continental but preferred the pahadi food. Though the pasta was one of the best I have ever had. However none of this compares to the passion invested in Te Aroha in the collection of memorabilia from old ads, movie posters and other graphics over the decades. The museum is a work of love and I am told the owners personally collect each and every artefact displayed at Te Aroha. I wish a version of the Flashback cafe could be created in Delhi so that more people ge to experience the Te Aroha grandeur. It would be remiss of me if I don’t mention Devendra and the other staff who make you feel cherished. I wish I could learn how to make every employee believe in the mission so wholeheartedly. Since the buffets are not operational due to COVID constraints, the food is a la carte, I intend to go back when they are fully functional to experience the hospitality as designed.

Kathgodam is the nearest station. and a comfortable 2 hour drive from there. one can stop at the iHeart Cafe for lunch just outside Bhimtal. if the resort vehicle is picking you up ( same rate as the taxis ) then it can drop you by the service road else bit of a climb.
yeah, almost 1 - 2 hrs drive from Nainital. As per my experience its better to stay a little far from main area (Nainital) and you'd enjoy the nature, otherwise you're always struggling in traffic and congestion :)
There are more places to choose from in the Dhanachuli area.
