What Makes It Awesome

Jim Corbett is one of the most accessible and prime spots for people from Delhi (especially those of us who love road trips). But just because you're in the lap of nature, doesn't mean that you can't have a taste of luxury as well. Taj Corbett Resort & Spa is the perfect destination for when you need to get away from the bustle and commotion of city life, but also be close to nature. Situated literally on the banks of the Ramganga river, and across the road from the reserved forest, the resort sits in the locus of peace and tranquility.

The resort has a spa, a pool, a gym, a restaurant that serves Kumaoni cuisine, and a bar that serves a fusion of Kumaon and western cuisines. The treetop restaurant, where they host lavish buffets, overlooks the Ramganga river, and on quiet mornings, you can enjoy your breakfast, some tea, and the soothing sound of the river flowing. If you're an early riser (or even if you aren't, actually), we highly recommend taking a walk here in the morning to witness the stunning sunrise and even enjoy one of their early morning yoga sessions by the river.

Needless to say, the food is out-of-this-world delicious! The restaurant staff and chef were extremely sweet and accommodating of my dairy and meat-free diet preferences (even for desserts, yes!) The Kumaoni thali is a must-try, and I can't stress enough how delicious yet light it was. And, you're in for a treat if they have their Khao Suey and ravioli on the menu; they're to die for.

They offer many experiences - Jungle Safari, Ramganga river experience, tours of the surrounding villages, and more. The Ramganga river experience is a brilliant way to enjoy the sunset by the banks of the river, where they have a high-tea set up for you to enjoy. 

The resort also has many immersive experiences that will familiarise you with the culture and lifestyle of the locals. They organise lunches at a local, organic farming school, where you get to enjoy the food the locals eat every day. The organic farming school employs women from the neighbouring villages and they also sell delicious pickles and chamomile tea.

Tariff: Starting at INR 7,244/night

What Could Be Better

They tend to host a lot of destination weddings at the property which is why we'd recommend checking with the hotel staff beforehand so you can have a peaceful stay.
