I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The suite I booked was absolutely fantastic with great amenities and hygienic food. The staff, especially Karan at the front desk, made my experience even better with their outstanding service. A slight downside was the intermittent power outages due to heavy rains, but the generator backup helped a lot. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its excellent service and comfortable stay.

Hotel Vyankatesh is a great budget-friendly option located right in the middle of Mahabaleshwar, making it very convenient for exploring the area. The food at the pure veg restaurant is decent, particularly the tandoori starters, though the dining options are somewhat limited. The standout feature for me was the eager-to-help staff who went above and beyond to ensure I had a memorable stay. However, it's essential to note that if you're looking for luxury, this is not the place for you, as the amenities are quite basic.

I had a fantastic experience at this hotel, thanks to its wonderful location and the eagerness of the staff to help. They went above and beyond when I accidentally left my mother's insulin box behind, arranging for it to be delivered to us even when we were quite far away. The cleanliness and service made my stay really enjoyable. However, I did notice that some room conditions could use improvement based on past experiences shared online, but my experience was mostly positive.

I had a decent stay overall, but there were definitely some ups and downs. While the rooms started with some pest issues, the staff was wonderful in helping me switch rooms and the breakfast provided was enjoyable. The hotel offers value for money, especially if you opt for the higher-tier room. However, there's no parking available and some basic amenities like a swimming pool are lacking.
