The Xanadu Resort

Stayed there with the family for 3 nights. This is 12 kms far from ranikhet city in a place called majkhali. Majkhali is lonely place don't expect much from this place. In the morning you can take walk around and inhale fresh air. There are few local shops for tea, limited daily utility items etc may be 3 or 4. Don't expect much entertainment and also not much for children except a small jhula (miniature swing). There is not much to see around this place. Go to this resort when you want quite, calm and serene environment just to take rest and don't want to do anything. The resort is situated on ranikhet almora road. Almora is 32 km from this place. Lot of monkeys around the place. Some enjoyment though to see monkeys hip hopping on the trees. Rooms are good, big and clean. Room service is also good. There is no electric kettle in the room and therefore no tea coffee sugar sachets to make your own. No welcome drinks. Food is good we took Dal, roti (Tawa) mix vegetables normal meals, Gulab jamun were great they were fresh and tasty but 2 pieces costed more a bit costly I think. Didn't like vegetable pakodis. Small 8 pieces costed about more. Quantity is by far very less compared to price. This should not more. Tea was good. Costed 50 rupees per cup. One thing which came to my notice was electricity problem. Lights were constantly coming and going in regular intervals. Although climate was cool and it even rained on first 2 days so I didn't mind at all. In bathroom they gave soaps, two set of towels, shampoo, shower gel, and body lotion on first day. They never came to check this on second and third day. But I assume if I have asked for it they may have given it. But you have to ask. I asked for room cleaning on second day. They did it nicely. Staff is friendly and soft speaking. No swimming pool. Overall good stay. But there's lot to improve to make it a happening place. Like lightning bon-fire, make arrangements for children area by adding slides, toys room etc. A small pool will be great though. Make a place at roof for watching stars, moon, sky gazing is a good option for children and even for adults you can't do more than that in this place I suppose. Can place few birds, ducks, rabbit's, parrots to make it more interactive for children. Overall a nice stay we rested a lot. Mr.Sanjay at reception was very helpful. Thanks. Mr. Jitendra from room services was professional and always looking to make the stay more comfortable. He was attentive. Thanks. I was looking for a quite calm place to take rest so it was the perfect one for me. I leave others to decide. I will give good out of excellence deducted for swimming pool, children play area and overall outside garden, flora and fauna. Thanks.

While in resort do meet the owner mr. Chauhan, a great person with tremendous experience from hospitality industry. He also loves to share his experience while being associated with global The Xanadu Resort chains and his passion and love for his homeland.

Good Resort at a lonely place Majkhali a few km from central place of Ranikhet. Have a full rest, eat, read books, enjoy nature and peace. Ranikhet is boring, The Xanadu Resort is remedy.
