Jungle Lodge Resort

Overpriced, Poorly Located & Mismanaged. Total Waste of Money. We had a terrible experience at Jungle Lodge Resort, Dharampur, and I would strongly advise against staying here. We booked 2 nights in a Premium Cottage Room via Agoda, but unknowingly, one night got booked under a lower category Cottage Garden Room. We only discovered this after checking in, and immediately requested the staff to upgrade us to the Premium Cottage for both nights. Even though the price difference was only ₹600–₹700, the staff showed zero flexibility or hospitality. Mr. Ajay Chauhan, in particular, was rude, arrogant, and completely unhelpful. Instead of understanding the situation or trying to assist us in any way, he behaved in a very unprofessional manner. The Cottage Garden Room was extremely small — it literally felt like a storeroom. They charge ₹9,000–₹10,000 per night, which is shocking for a room of that size and condition. Not at all worth the price. To make matters worse, the location of this resort is very poor. It is not in Kasauli, as many people assume — it’s in Dharampur, surrounded by ordinary buildings and offers no scenic views whatsoever. The setting is dull, the ambiance is missing, and you don’t get that peaceful hill-station feel at all. Overall, this place is completely overhyped and overpriced. Bad service, bad location, poor room quality — a total waste of money. There are much better resorts in and around Kasauli where you’ll get real value and a better experience.

Visit The Jungle resort Kasauli with family friends on 8 march to 10th March resort location is very good atmosphere is very good staff is very cooperative room are comfortable and view of the rooms very good staff who serves food is very pleasing specially Mr kewal Krishan ji asking each and every member for their requirements his nature is very good and very polite

Wonderful hidden gem in a perfect location. Isolated enough to be serene, connected well enough for easy access. The rooms were super comfy with every amenity, and the food was hearty and delicious. We had our school reunion here and it was phenomenally fun with great service and support from the staff and the lovely owner. We were thoroughly well looked after and had a blast. Would 100% visit again and again. Thank you for a great trip!!

Amazing and peaceful time with family. It’s a beautiful property with nice chill out zones. Rooms are incredibly big very balcony and high standards of ambience. food is good and the staff is very professional. The landscape of the property allows you to roam around, enjoy various decks. Perfect destination for a peaceful holiday under the pine trees.

Let me begin by clarifying that this resort is not located in Kasauli, but Dharampur. It is about 7-8 minutes off the highway into Dharampur. The approach is by and large fine except for the last 2-3 minutes drive during which you have to navigate a kaccha road. Since we just visited, part of that road was mucky due to rains. The resort is tastefully done and they have some great sit outs. Room service, be it housekeeping or F&B, was prompt, so high marks there. What we felt as a group (3 families) is the following: 1. The upkeep of upholstery and rooms was not upto the mark. For the kind of tariff you are paying, one would expect a minimum standard to be maintained. They really need to pay attention to this detail as word travels fast and they would for sure loose business, because I will not categorise them as a commercially cheap stay option. 2. Their menu choices were limited. Food was average in taste, however the portion size was very decent. As a resort, their menu should be well equipped to cater to kids, however their kids menu was extremely limited. On calling them and asking them if I can get Pizza delieverd through Zomato since they did not have Pizza on the kids menu, they initially resisted, however after arguing it out with them that if they are not ok for Zomato ro deliver, which btw a Taj and even ITC allows today, so does all tertiary hotels, they reluctantly finally agreed. 3. For the food menu, we felt for the taste, the items were priced dearly. So all in all, as I mentioned earlier, this is definitely not a mid-range resort when it comes to cost be it tariff or food menu. But you can still look at this property as an option for a short stay. Kasauli town or city centre where the mall road is located is about 35 to 40 minutes away.

I had terrible experience here. I booked a premium lodge and was surprised to see the condition. There were insects and spiders(big ones) in the room. After our request, they changed the room. But the problem continued. A big spider fell on my son’s face while sleeping. Not at all safe if you are travelling with small kids. I had to check out one day before my planned stay. Although food and service was good, but they should focus on maintaining the property well. When I raised this to their admin, they mentioned it happens during rainy season.
