Royal Orchid Fort Resort Mussoorie

My bed and blankets were wet , as it was a kind of experience i had not faced till date. Before allotment of room every corner has to checked. There was a water leakage in bath room , it was resolve after giving complaint. Mattress and blankets were also changed and took half an hour to resolve the complaint.

It was a nice stay and food was also good. The property is at a good location and you can click many scenic view from bere

This is a proper hotel kind of property spread over a large area of 6 acres if i am not wrong and has nice views. As it is situated on one of the hill tops one has a 270 degress view of the valley. The property has many sit out areas and has some beautiful landscaping. Though it is located around a km away from the mall road which is uphill, the hotel provides a taxi drop to the mall road and the charges (Rs 200 to 400) depend on which end of the mall road one is going to . The hotel provided us with the number of the private taxi agency for local sight seeing, which was a bit more on the expensive side and the driver was constantly on the phone but we did not have any further issues with it during the one time we used it. Rooms were good, clean and we had taken the balcony valley view which a had good view during mornings but cloudy during the evenings - however we were scared to use them much due to monkeys menace who visited our balcony a couple of times during our stay there and one of which actually peeyed on the frame but this is an isssue throughout Mussoorie. Though we were very frankly warned by the hotel staff Ms Rachna who was kind enough to show us many rooms before we chose one. However we were brave enough to have a couple of drinks in the balcony once. Breakfast and dinner was decent. Their restaurant is located at the hill top and has decent views but the breakfast spread was okayish. As it was kinda off season there weren't many folks around at dinner time but since it was just the two of us we did not have the luxury to try much. It also had a kids play area and a seperate adults play area. And a decent spa with sauna steam and jacuzzi. There is also a round sit out area where the hotel sets up bonfires. We were just a couple but the hotel was willing to set it up just for the two of us. We had previosly stayed on a property in mall road on this trip, after which we extended our stay for a couple of days, which is why we chose this property to enjoy the views and property, but being some distance away from the mall road is a bit of a drawback though there are no issues with taxis, however the walk to the mall is not even picturesque or activity filled. But since we had already stayed on mall road this was not a concern for us. One issue we faced was that during afternoon the bathroom had continuous hot water but during morning hot water was very luke warm. The hotel also has an old wing which has a couple reallly good sit in areas specially one in the Taramahal building where there is an inside courtyard a couple of floors high and beautiful comfortable sofas and had a royal look n really quiet. Overall it was a nice relaxing stay.
