SaffronStays Parsi Manor

an old charm bungalow tucked away from the hustle bustle of the crowd in the market place in matheran. the rooms are simple with basic amenities. there is no tv in the property nor any ac. the caretaker santosh and his wife are friendly and efficient. you will have to inform them regarding the meals in advance. the food they offer is delicious and wifi is fast and stable. the property is located more towards southern part of matheran and it is a good 12-15 min walk from the market place/ railway station. there are some sightseeing points in 15 min walking distance from the property. however the biggest challenge is reaching matheran as from dasuri parking one has option of horse (500-600- per head; hand drawn rickshaw (1000-1200/head; eauto (35/ head, train or by walk. by walk is around 50-60 min. e-autos are very limited and one may have to wait 1 hr to 1.5 hr in queue. train tickets are almost impossible to get. further the telephone coverage is quite poor in matheran

The stay was very comfortable in this heritage home, it is preserved nicely and gives that vibe but on amenities ground nothing is there. If you want only a peaceful stay one can enjoy. Care taker is very polite and cookies amazing tasty food. Cost is slightly overpriced. Security deposit is illogical according to me. Meal per head is also expensive as compared to others.

The property is located in a lovely, peaceful area surrounded by greenery, away from the busy market. It's centrally located, making it easily accessible to other areas. The hospitality was good overall. However, they do not have a common restroom, so when we checked out and later needed to use the facilities, we were denied access.

The property has a old charm look and is meant for people who want spend quality time with near and dear ones. Food is good through priced on higher side. Rooms are spacious and clean. Electricity goes quite often but generator is there. Very secluded place away from crowd.

One of the best home stays! very comfortable, tidy and clean! caretaker santosh & family were very polite and provided delicious home cooked food! a blend of colonial style, indian hospitality and modern amenities! exceptional!

This villa was excellent and well-maintained. Its isolated location in the jungle gives amazing vibes. The 130-year-old parsi-style villa has a great vintage feel. I think it's the best place to stay in matheran.

Beautiful and peaceful, tucked away from the noise and crowds, the experience at parsi manor was wonderful. The ambience and the home cooked meals was like the icing on the cake.

Nice stay for required peaceful l atmosphere. Food quality good pl. Order food in advance. Service was good and person who take care of villa is a good human being

It was feeling very nice. Their service was very good. Caretaker was very polite. Breakfast was too delicious. We found this property on makemytrip app.

I got to see the paradise flycatcher and the giant squirrel from my window. Worth the money. Wifi and network are very choppy.

The stay was pleasant, the house was beautiful, but the food was average, we asked for parsi cuisine and it was completely bland.

The stay is cozy and clean, and the caretaker is also very helpful. The only negative is they don't have an air conditioner and it gets very hot in the afternoons and when the electricity is gone.

Property and caretakers were superb, it's a beautiful and well maintained bungalow. Home cooked food was great too

The manor is perfect for a weekend getaway and the caretaker is really very sweet. The food he cooked for us was very homely. The manor is in walking distance with the market. Overall a perfect stay.

Nice place to stay…surrounded by nature…caretaker is generous & cooks amazing…try for Parsi food (veg/non-veg)
