Our journey to this place was nothing less than a magnificent memory. This is the most beautiful place I have visited and stayed. I have never experienced luxury like that and the hospitality was top notch. I am still so grateful for all the people who hosted us and took us on an incredible journey.

What a day!! This was a fantastic show and the lighting and background of this was really amazing. The performances were excellent and I must commend the costumes as well. The whole thing was simply awesome and we had a great time enjoying the show. If you can make out some time, do visit and enjoy.. There are places in the world which are so beautiful and magical that going there once does not suffice your travel karma. This is definitely one of those. I loved it here and the place had my heart.

The place is carved like a dream and the whole structure is simply marvelous. Every detailing of this magnificent architecture was spell binding. We took the tour of the whole property and it took some time but we weren't bored for a second. We absolutely loved it and advised everyone to visit this place.

The place was great, ambience was amazing and the food was delicious and it brought back a lot of memories of your childhood days since the concept of the place was to make customers nostalgic about the comfort food everyone used to have. It was simply incredible.. This is one of the most iconic and interesting buildings of the city where the architecture of this place speaks volume of its importance. It is a great place to visit and its tour throws some light on the history and working of this place.

This was our 5th time visiting this camp and the scenery and the service including the facilities are just awesome. You have to look out for the best time to visit the camp because winters could be too cold and for some not a feasible option. Even though you can enjoy the winterland, you have to be fully equipped with everything.

This was a traditional B&B and was very warm and comfortable. The hosts were very welcoming and nice people. It is very conveniently located and is easy to find. The food from their kitchen was very homely and delicious and they made sure that we had a hearty breakfast. Overall a great experience and we are booking this place again.

We went to see a movie and we really thought that the theater is nice and the sound system is really good. The boot area of the seats is really good and the whole vibe and atmosphere of this place enhances the movie experience. The service is also provided inside the theater and it was really great to enjoy a movie in comfy chairs with popcorns delivered inside.
