Pratiksha River Retreat , Jim Corbett — Hotel in Uttarakhand

We went for a vacation/ tour at Jim Corbett National Park in November 2022 and stayed at Pratiksha River Retreat for 5 days. It was, to put it simply, an awesome experience for us. The property: Situated just beside Koshi river, with wide expansive lawns and gardens, it fas four cottages. Each cottage has four A/C rooms, two in the ground floor and the other two on the 1st floor. Each room has its own, quite large balcony/verandah . Toilets are fairly spacious and have separate shower area. The reception area connects to a dining area and then to a fantastic roofed terrace overlooking the river and the mountains. It is a real treat to have your breakfast there basking in the sunshine in cool mornings Location From the main road, it is about 100 metres, connected with a narrow lane wide enough for four wheelers. It is near to both Garjiya and Dhikala zone. Ameneties: There is a moderately sized swimming pool, a thatched roof hut to enjoy your evening snacks and great food. Safaris and local sightseeings with hired cars can be arranged on request. You can even have your own bonfire just by the side of the river. Hospitality: Each and every staff is very well behaved, always smiling and prompt to address your problems, if any. A special mention for Mr Rakesh, who took responsibility of our meals, Mr Virender, who was instrumental to all our travel plans and of course Mr Sunil Joshi for the booking and all other arrangements. Tariff: Rack price of a room is around Rs 6000 including complimentary breakfast. But it is advisable to contact them for current pricing. You may go for a package i.e. MAP, which includes breakfast and dinner. In that way you will have a lesser pocket pinch. I would whole heartedly recommend this to...

A place where you can hear the sound of your own breathing. A calm place in Corbet where you can spent 2-3 relaxed days away from your daily hustle and bustle. On the bank of koshi river.

PROS: SERVICE- A one service, every one in the hotel will make you feel comfortable. Whatever we have asked for from the staffs they have provided us. I have been to many hotels in all over India and Abroad. This was one of the best as per service standard.

FOOD- Second major plus point is the food. Take MAP plan if you are going. They have buffet breakfast and dinner. It's not a lavish buffet but 4-5 items whatever they cook are very delicious. The service level of the staffs makes it more worthy.

LOCATION/VIEW- View is very soothing, probably one of the best in Corbet hotels. Location is not in main road but I feel it makes it unique. The lawn, swimming pool all have an excellent view.

CLEANLINESS- The hotel is no doubt very clean but the property is a bit old, which is understandable from the assets.

CONS: The only cons I found is that hotel is not using the river bank area properly. If they clean it and decorate the same properly it will make the place...

This resort is located close to Garjiya gate of Jim Corbett National Park.We had stayed here for 5 nights in the second week of March in a river view room. The entire stay was amazing. To begin with, the room was spacious and had a balcony overlooking the Kosi river. The bathroom was well maintained with 24 hours hot water. Room service was excellent. Mr Rakesh took care of our every need and made sure that we had a comfortable stay. He is the person you should get in touch with once you reach the resort. The food was also delicious. We are vegetarians and don't eat spicy food. They cooked special,less spicy meals just for the two of us on all five days. They even made us local Kumaoni lunch one day. They adjust the breakfast, lunch and dinner timings according to our requirement. The resort is quite close to all the Safari zones. One can have a relaxed holiday here, waking up to the chirping sounds of birds, sitting in the balcony listening to the Kosi river, enjoying the morning Sun. You can spend time sitting on the banks of the Kosi river. We would highly recommend this resort for people visiting Jim Corbett...
