Welcome to Jharipani Castle, a majestic heritage property located amidst the serene hills and valleys of Mussoorie. Our hotel is nestled far away from the noise and chaos of the city, yet conveniently located just 7 km before Mall Road, making it easily accessible by road. As you step into our property, you'll be transported to a world where nature and heritage blend seamlessly. Jharipani Castle is one of the oldest buildings in Mussoorie and was originally owned by Crown Breweries during the British era. Later, it was passed on to the family of the Maharaja of Patiala, earning it the nickname "Patiala House." We take pride in offering our guests a comfortable and luxurious stay. Our neatly maintained Log Huts and Luxury Rooms come equipped with private attached bathrooms, providing you with utmost privacy and convenience. The lush green landscaped gardens and terraces with cozy sit-outs tucked away in secluded corners offer stunning panoramic views of the Doon Valley.

Jharipani Castle hotel is celebrated for its tranquil atmosphere and picturesque location, nestled amidst lush greenery that many guests find serene. Travelers commend the attentive and friendly service, alongside the hotel’s cleanliness and well-maintained facilities. While the cozy rooms with breathtaking views are a highlight, some visitors note they could benefit from additional amenities.
The on-site 19th-century cafe is a hit for its delectable food and ambiance. Although the hotel is seen as offering good value, opinions diverge on its pricing relative to the amenities.

Jharipani, an excellent resort tucked away in midst of Nature.
We are sharing review based on our recent Visit to this place (Apr 1-6) 2021.
For us, it was a 4.5 hours of amazing drive from Delhi after which we arrived at this beautiful property, nestled in the midst of nature. We were welcomed by fresh air, cool breeze, lots of greenery, beautiful log huts & a very hospitable staff. We stayed in deluxe log hut and deluxe room (valley facing, for a night), both neatly constructed and well maintained with all the necessary amenities. Not to forget the USP of the Deluxe room which is this mesmerizing view from the Huge Windows that allow you to soak in an Amazing Sight of the Valley. The landscaped garden & the nice open sitting area would invite you to spend more time with nature, away from all the hassles and worries, above all, allow you to be with yourself, with absolute peace & solitude. You can even enjoy the view to spectacular sun and mountains from the property itself and don’t really have to go in search for scenic view points. Vikram, the owner of the resort and his entire team are very helpful and amiable. They also helped me plan a surprise birthday party for my spouse. Also, knowing the place like the back of his hand, Vikram was kind enough to guide us to some really amazing yet offbeat destinations around. Further, this place is just 30 mins drive from either Mussoorie or Dehradun which makes it all the more convenient & rather easily approachable.
If we were to nitpick, the only area we felt that required improvement, would perhaps be the food. Though their in-house cafe provides scrumptious food & great service, we found the food options to be slightly limited & priced a tad bit on the higher side. Also, a rather nice breakfast buffet spread from options of fresh cut fruits to cold cuts together with perhaps a North Indian and a South Indian regular wasn't there (which we wish gets added if possible), the breakfast at the property, served with a rather friendly smile did proved to be sufficient.
However, this would not lessen the quality of wonderful experience we had. And we would certainly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a home away from home in the lap of nature, with a generous helping of peace and tranquility, a healthy dose of fresh air and an absolute treat for your mind, body and soul in form of the scenic beauty.

Perhaps the best staying option in Jharipani, with the Bahris having tailored the property in a manner where you get the best of pahari hospitality and modern amenities. The location is opposite to the beginning of the trek to the Jharipani Fall, and the property itself is impeccably maintained and has an interesting history. They have a total of five well-appointed rooms, a nice Cafe-restaurant, and the friendliest bunch of staff you could ask for.

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
We had two nights of a stay into this very clean vicinity where the hospitality was something I liked about.
We stayed in one of their very lavishing suites with a glass view of mountains and clouds that has made our stay even more lovable. They have their own restaurant with the same glass view and one thing that is a cherry on the top you can ask for a candle light dinner with your better half with just you two in that entire restaurant.
The food was great, hospitality was at the top notch. Being an individual who just wants have some peace time, it's a perfect spot to be at.
We had bonfire, partied in thier lawn, got the amazing view of Mussoorie & Dehradun at the same has given us best of the experience.
Thanks to the Owner as well who took care of our needs and prioritized everything accordingly.
Amazing place, Perfect Location, Luxurious Suites, and Excellent Hospitality of Staff.
Would Love to visit again for sure.

Excellent view point. Serene place to relax,roam around the castle. View from suite room is mesmerising. One could see entire Dehradun from this place and it looks glittery at night. View point doesn’t compromise even if it rains. Rooms are pretty clean and well maintained. Being a cold place rooms are wooden so as to protect from chilled weather outside. You can also get room heaters if required.
Staffs are very co operative . Place is very secluded in a cliff near Jharipani fall. Games Like carom,swing,criss cross,badminton are also there for kids engagement. Security is also there. The ambience will never make you feel that you are in a hotel.
And loved the behaviour of the owner Sanjay Ji & his son.He also guided us on places to visit in Mussoorie as well as Dehradun.
Had the best stay till date.
Would definitely refer to friends & family and also revisit.

I visited this week and had a great trip. I want to write about this place during my return journey but I could'nt manage,now I am at my home and I want to write something about this place.I came here to celebrate my wedding,all the staff welcomed us just like our family members,even the way of welcoming at the main gate was impressive. Staff members especially Krishna helped us a lot. Manager Mr. Vipin has a great personality, he is so caring, he is a great advisor also,not only professional but also personally. Welcoming us with our fav kadak coffee was fabulous, after getting instant energy the hidden gem was night view of Dehradun. We were mesmerized with the nature. Then dinner was so yummy. Quantity of food in a single plate was plenty for 2 people.I have heard about the makers of Taj Mahal, but in this era we have some people like them and I will remember Mr.Chef (Semwal ji) he is really God gifted. You must try the food here if you are near Dehradun or visiting Mussorie. Chicken shikara for non vegeterian and kadhai paneer for vegetarians is the must try dish I will recommend you. The guy associated with room service will talk like a family member. He is so humble and polite.A food do not need any special masala if cooked by Semwal ji, served by Service man and enjoyed at Jharipani castle's cafe. I will visit this place again and again.

Beautiful and well constructed property in the lap of nature - Before Mussoorie. It has an awestrucking view of the Doon valley from the room and one can enjoy the breezes around this secluded and can be called as a private property. We stayed in a deluxe room and it’s definitely worth every penny incurred. Must visit again with family. The owners of the property were very welcoming which calls for a great hospitality and have constructed this with the idealogy of Cheap and best visibility.
Their cafe halfway has scrumptious food which is the USP of this place. I had an amazing inclusive breakfast and have also tried their chicken kathi roll as well which is a piece of delicacy.
Do visit for an awesome experience. Thank you Vikram. You made my husbands birthday amazing

Jharipani Castle is a beautiful place with stunning views of the Doon Valley.
