Customer Reviews
I stayed at this hotel for two days with my family. The rooms and toilets were good and clean, the staff was friendly and very helpful. Free Wifi. The 2 things I feel they can improve are maintaining and cleaning the garden( make a sitting area there) and secondly the parking needs to be in the same place. Overall a great place with great value.
Fantastic place location wise. Rooms and washrooms are neat and clean. I particularly impressed with the crisp white bed sheets. The only minus is the place didn't have their own parking. The gas heater charges are quite high (Rs 1000) for few hours as they don't allow gas heaters in rooms all night long for safety reasons. The look of premises from road is a bit disappointing and gave wrong impression. All in all good place to stay with family at reasonable rates.
I would like to share my experience during my visit to Nathia Lodge, I find out wonderful well furnished rooms, wonderful facilities of WiFi, hot water, food, the cleanliness of furniture. Also the hospitality given by the staff is amazing so I am giving full marks to the administration. Keep up the good work and highly recommended place to stay for nature Lovers in the region.
