Children found it very comfortable to have a clean and neat hotel with good food and service. The hotel incharge was helpful in guiding with local site seeing... More

My daughter and I stayed at Sood's Garden Retreat two days. It is a lovely hotel with great views of the valley and a beautiful garden. The rooms are large, the beds comfortable. The suites have verandas attached to sit and enjoy the peace and beauty around you. The only downside was the children's playground. There was a swing and... More

The rooms are spacious and well furnished and have lovely views of the valley. Cleanliness of the linens could have been better maintained, but the food was good and the decor of the rooms was...

We had stayed here in Feb'13 for 2-3 days and found this resort to be a decent one. The rooms are nice & big with a good view of the valley down below. The room service is also nice and quite personalized. The hotel is a little away from the main market but thats not too far, while going up... More

The staff was friendly and accommodating and offered us hot water bottles as it was extremely cold and for a change, we did not have to ask for a top sheet! The dining room also nice and clean...

Good location as heard but we had bad weather so no view.. The cold weather needs a room heater which is missing. You get a small space heater after 5:00 pm. only and at a cost. But it doesn't heat any area beyond 2 ft. Since the restaurent also caters to outsiders, the service goes drastically down the when there... More
