Booked the cottage 131 (2 bedrooms ) for 26th and 27th Nov'23. There are many things but highlighting some of them: 1 : No welcome drink was served. The container was kept in a corner and i my self went there took it for me and my wife. 2: The passage outside my door was full of monkey poop and was not cleared for the 1st day along with some other guest's used food tray lying on my door. 3: No housekeeping at all for cleaning for my whole stay for 2 days. 4: No fresh towels were given after multiple calls and face to face request with the housekeeping guys. 5: The Chair outside my cottage was broken and was only removed after I made a call and made them se how it was broken. 6: No hangers inside the wardrobe. I believe someone needs to inspect all these things on a regular basis.…

It was a nightmare. The services were pathetic. The rooms were worst. The bedsheets had stains, soild towels, no tv remote (1 remote between 4 rooms) and to suprise you all they call it a executive suite room. And Mrs kavita vishwakarma doesn't have courtesy to answer the call and blocked us. Mr ansari is not connecting us to the GM of the hotel stating that the GM is unwell.

Offered a pleasant stay in the lush green forest of Matheran. Dinner quality and variety was good. Kind and available staff. All the tourist points are near to this resort. Echo point being one of the best. Though the route to reach it is a little hectic and that’s because of Matheran village self defined rules.

I went with my family to stay @ Byke Brightland for 2 nights and 3 days. This Pure Veg Resort gives 90’s ka feel where you can relax, unwind and enjoy outdoor activities and not be glued to your electronic gadgets. In monsoon the resort looks beautiful. Located in india’s smallest hill station ( Matheran ) Byke brightland offers duplex, deluxe rooms with pure vegetarian restaurant, swimming pool with a slide, indoor game room, DJ, live music etc Be ready to see monkeys around and that’s absolutely normal in Matheran. Food served is pure veg and jain. Food variety is decent & Food quality is very good Service is ok. It’s a resort after all . Please don’t compare it to your city hotels. This resort is surrounded by nature, peaceful & feels like home away from home. Amazing property for couples, families & big groups. We as a family thoroughly enjoyed our stay.…

Dear veg_foodaholic, I'm glad to hear that your family enjoyed their stay at Byke Brightland! It sounds like a great place for couples, families, and large groups to stay and unwind in India's smallest hill station. The resort offers duplex and deluxe rooms along with a variety of activities, including a swimming pool with a slide, an indoor game room, DJ, and live music. The food served at the resort is vegetarian and Jain, and the quality was great according to your review. It's good to know that the service was okay, and that you didn't expect it to be the same as city hotels. Thank you for your review! Thanks & Regards,

We visited Matheran in the 2nd week of April-2023. Stayed at this property for 2 nights/3 days as a family of four in their executive duplex room. It was good stay overall. Plus: Near to many of the attraction points (there will still be a walk but comparatively nearer than other hotels) Renovated - Interiors of the room, bathroom, ceiling etc. gives new like feeling. However, overall property is old. But they managed to renovate area requiring attention. Bathrooms and rooms were clean and have sufficient space. They have lot of room options and overall property is well maintained. Food - For most part it was good (breakfast, lunch and dinner) except few dishes which weren't that great Staff - Despite being long weekend and all rooms sold out, I think they managed to serve guests in decent manner. Calls to housekeeping for any thing were promptly responded and across the property all staff members were really helpful Activities - Due to long weekend they arranged lot of activities like housie, dance, live music, magic chair and other fun activities at night which was fun overall Improvement: Water was running out from tape and we had to call for help. They fixed immediately when called but this happened twice in the morning hours Monkeys all around - but nothing can be done as they can be found in entire matheran :) No mobile network - Had to depend on hotel provided wifi to call reception/service Overall great stay. Thank you team brightland and continue your service standard high!…

The room was clean and well maintained. The bed is nice and soft. The food, veg though was excellent. Overall the ambience is excellent and the stay was very cozy. One thing what I would like to give a suggestion is that you have a good Plot in matheran. You can engage the visitors with more activities. Also I am not sure I'd you serve drinks. Use the bar area and the pool side for serving drinks.
