Mandaal Corbett

It’s beautiful It is surrounded by greenery, the entrance gives you a real corbett feels and it really makes you feel connected with the nature. The staff is super sweet and humble!

Loved everything about it!

This place is amazing! Rohit (the owner) is super helpful and knowledgeable. We went on multiple tiger safaris and an amazing walk in the jungle. And the food was fantastic too! Rohit truly went above and beyond, helping us arrange transport to and from the park with lovely drivers. And the location! You really feel like you’re in the jungle (because you are!)

It’s a place which perfectly suits anyone who has an inclination towards nature and wildlife. The best part is the route to reach the property because it’s off-road and I as an off-roader, love to take such adventures in life. The property is extremely beautiful and serene. The Staff is very humble, and the food is incredible. The Owner is very learned and well versed about the forest, wildlife and its conservation and takes you back in the history of Corbett and gives you very informative insights. it’s always lovely to be at such a place where you feel like home.

Nestled amongst nature, the amazing dinner and helpful staff

The rooms need some maintenance and care( bathroom sink was overflowing) walls were chipped - and smelling of mildew. Should accept card payments and not take cash only- not always feasible for foreign or international travellers

Low density plan. Only 9 rooms in a large multi acre property. Independent rooms in a rustic design. Very spacious. Bathrooms too are spacious. Very green around - doesn't feel like staying in hotel. Right on the forest edge. Lots of diverse birds. Evrything clean and tidy. Ride up to property from main road is exciting in gypsy jeeps. Will be hard for mobility challenged so keep in mind. Very good food. Host is very wam and helpful. He has background in tiger conservation related projects. Very happy with choosing this. Value for money. Tip - the newer and less crowded Mohaan range for tiger safaris is close by.

Liked everything. The wifi was temporarily busted bit who cares and who needs wifi in a forest holiday!

Property is very peaceful and beautiful

Nothing at all. Staff was very cooperative and friendly. Value for money

Rohit was exceptionally nice and helpful. We staying just one night en route to another location and the location was not so convenient because it is out in the buffer zone of the natl park. We didn’t understand this so this was our bad. If you are going to enjoy the forest or do safari, it’s a good choice

I couldn’t open the window for fresh air but there was a fan. Room slightly dated

The location of the property is amazing! We actually need to park our vehicle ( which we get help from the property) near a chowki and then we are taken in 4x4 to the property which is amidst the jungle! Plus the property set up with its pretty cottage style accommodation and Gazebo for sit out is really nice! The in-house kitchen also cooks tasty food and snacks. The plus point is the property host! Rohit is very helpful and available at all times for guidance and can also help you arrange amazing activities and safaris. The property staff is also very well mannered and courteous. All in all a great stay. Will visit again!

Nothing!

Location was great, easy to go for a walk to villages, and to get to the National Park.

The property is so calming and amidst the forest region. So it was as if we were part of the forest itself. It had an eerie feeling in the evening. Many birds and butterflies. The food was good and homely. Staff was great. Overall it was peaceful and great for nature lovers.

My family including senior citizens visited. Everything about the place, the guidance to navigate the city and personalised attention was a rare combination. Would love to visit again

Everything was good

A luxurious stay with Serenity and calm .A gate away from the chaos of city in midst of forest.U can feel the silence of forest and sound of wildlife with all the amenities of a resort.but highlight of the stay is Host himself,my good friend Rohit Singh Saroha, he will win u with his warm gesture and hospitality.

No room service albeit it’s to maintain the clean environs and basic caution according to jungle.

A gem in the lap of nature

The not so modern amenities

As a solo female traveler, I couldn't have asked for a more welcoming, enriching, and secure experience than my stay at Mandaal Corbett. From the moment I arrived, I felt completely taken care of — not just as a guest, but as someone whose experience truly mattered. The location is exceptional, just minutes from some of the most desirable gates of Jim Corbett National Park, making it ideal for early morning safaris and nature excursions. What truly sets Mandaal apart, however, is the level of personalized care and attention provided by the owner, Rohit. He went above and beyond to curate my experience, from arranging seamless safari bookings to organizing treks I couldn't find offered anywhere else. His deep knowledge of local wildlife, especially the majestic tigers, added so much meaning to every outing. The passion and respect he holds for the region’s flora and fauna is both infectious and inspiring. As a food lover, I was absolutely blown away. Every meal was a celebration of fresh, local ingredients, cooked with creativity and care. The variety and quality of dishes far exceeded expectations! Every plate was both comforting and memorable. The chefs and staff regularly surprised me with thoughtful touches tailored to my preferences, making each meal feel personal and special. The property itself is stunning. Beautifully landscaped, the air carries the natural fragrance of blooming flowers, creating a tranquil and sensory-rich environment. My room was not only impeccably clean but also tastefully decorated and thoughtfully designed. Truly a perfect blend of comfort and aesthetic charm. Mandaal Corbett is more than just a place to stay, it’s an experience that left me feeling deeply connected to nature, supported in my solo travels, and grateful for the heartfelt hospitality. I can't recommend it enough!!!

We had a perfect stay at Mandaal Corbett! The location was very nice, but also the staff was so friendly and the food at the resort was delicious. The rooms were very beautiful and comfortable as well, so we couldnt have had a better stay! I would definitely recommend!

The food was delicious and fresh and the staff was very supportive.

Some area needs maintenance like washrooms.

Everything

Nothing

Special mention to the attitude of the staff and the owners, who made us feel part of their family. The owners deeply care for their property and the experience they can provide to the guests. We had a lovely time interacting with Rohit, Aryan and other travelers!

All the staff were very welcoming and we had a fantastic stay at this resort. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The setting was peaceful and beautifully maintained, creating a relaxing atmosphere that made it easy to unwind. Whether you’re looking for a quiet getaway or just a comfortable place to stay while enjoying the surrounding natural wildlife, this resort is a great choice. Highly recommend

The only thing that could have made our stay better was seeing a tiger - however it just means we’ll have to be back. Also, I think transparency around excursion costs ahead of the activity would be helpful.

Rohit and Aryan hosted us at Mandaal, a lovely, simple spot in the hills outside Ramnagar, near some of the zones of Corbett National Park.  The team looked after us very well, and we enjoyed the delicious food there.  We had 3 safaris in different zones of Corbett, using different drivers and guides. We saw lots of types of birds, monkeys, deer, and jackals, playful elephants and a relaxed tiger. In addition to looking after us while we stayed there, Mandaal kindly organised a pick-up from and return to Delhi.

The location of the property was well off the beaten track and suited us perfectly to explore the forests of Jim Corbett , with Rohit and his wonderful team members which made the stay a truly great experience. Rohit was so knowledgable and engaging with us when telling us stories and taking us out for adventures during our 4 nights there. We have stayed in many places across the world and Rohits care for us and desire to get us to see things was the best we have experienced so far and we would love to go back again in the future. We were never restricted at what we could do and they were always full of suggestions for activities we could do. The restaurant was a real bonus for us and made it a easy decision to eat there each night and taste the wonderful home cooked meals that Rohits team cooked for us, at any time of day or night. We would highly recommend Mandaal Corbett to anyone and would give it more then 5 stars if we could.

Nothing

We had an excellent time! The location is perfect, giving you the feeling of being in a forest. The food was great, and Rohit is an amazing host, full of fascinating wildlife stories that added a unique charm to our stay. We can’t wait to visit again!

The resort is very good for relaxing and enjoying nature. Food was very good, and the staff was very supportive. The owner is also very cooperative.

Approach was not good being in forest area. Resort location on site was not actual.

There are some experiences that stay with you, staying at Mandaal was one of those beautiful experiences. It is located away from the hustle of the city, close to the wilderness. The property is well equipped along with availability for freshly cooked tasty food. The staff is amazing and takes care of all your needs. There are everyday activities such as trekking and safaris organized by the property, which is a plus when visiting Jim Corbett National park. If you would like a peaceful and real experience of the jungle, we would recommend staying at Mandaal! Special Kudos to Mr. Rohit who made our stay special with his stories and bonfires. We will definitely be back to Mandaal. Thanks for everything!

Everything was great!

The property is fully immersed into nature and it’s generally well maintained and peaceful. The staff is very helpful and especially Rohit is an amazing host. He makes you feel like at home and he will show you the jungle from another perspective.

The kitchen is slightly slow, but good quality.

Then location is incredible. It’s remote, quiet and beautiful. The cottages are spaced out and beautifully designed. Each cottage has a clean and spacious bathroom too. The staff is super sweet and takes really good care of you. And to top it all, the food is excellent. Every meal was excellent!

The location and hospitality was amazing

Hot water was coming intermittently

Excellent stay at Mandaal, best part of stay was food, the location of the property and the hotel staff are very cordial and polite, always ready to help. The location of the property is beyond expectation it gives true essence of jungle. One of most best staycation we had with Mandaal and it was worth every second.

Everything was perfect.

Exceptional host with deep knowledge of wildlife, homely food with comfortable stay

I usually go to Jim Corbett because I am a wildlife enthusiast and this time I took my stay at Mandaal Corbett which is situated right inside the dense forest with a raw jungle feel that I liked. From my side Mandaal Corbett is highly recommended for all who want a crazy adventure with proper jungle feel . The host of the property Mr Rohit Saroha was amazing and real wildlife enthusiast just like me and matched my vibe. Property was properly managed and staff was very well disciplined. The food at Mandaal was amazing in taste and I have never ever tasted that kind of food before . They made my stay a memorable one. From my side Mandaal Corbett is 10/10 ❤️

Situated right next to the Saraca (previously Lebua Corbett), Mandaal is a beautifully maintained, more in-touch-with-nature property. The rooms are located at comfortable walking distance from each other and yet so strategically placed that you will feel as though you are living inside the forest itself. Kudos to the planning that keeps in mind the natural needs of the wildlife and fauna around. Rooms are spacious and well maintained, the washroom facilities are superbly impressive. Wifi is pretty strong and given you will possibly not have connectivity (except for vodafone carriers) it was a must for us to keep in touch with the outside world.

The property is very homely, the room are neat and comfortable. The staffs were very kind and the food was really delicious. To top them all, Rohit is an experienced wildlife enthusiast and a great host. Rohit makes sure that everything is taken care of, if you are a nature and wildlife lover, this is the place to be.

Mr. Rohit Saroha who manages the resort is a gentleman. He takes good care of his guests. The food in the resort is delicious.

I have visited Mandaal twice within three months. Being London based, that should be a testament to how incredible this experience is. The first time I stayed in the Mountain hostel for a week, where I was mesmerised by those morning views of the Himalayas and by night, the world under the Supermoon. Upon arriving I saw a Leopard. We stopped for a while watching it duck in and out looking to cross the road. The jungle trek was curative of any urban-induced anxiety. There is no experience in the world like this. The peace found at Mandaal was magical. The second visit was for a full three weeks. I stayed in both Corbett and visited Mandaal Riverside crossing the Kosi river by 4x4 car. In Mandaal you’re never too far from a Tiger, he was spotted a few times from on site. The thrill of this is incomparable to any other wildlife creature I’ve experienced. This is a truly homely experience, the food is delicious and healthy, the environment was peaceful and I was truly re-set. Of course, this was after seeing in the New Years where you can see the true meaning of “going wild in the jungle” This is all down to Mandaal’s jewel in the crown, it’s very own Mr. Goldie. He is a Tiger conservationist and founder of Mandaal. His passion is infectious, and he makes every single guest feel valued and well looked after. There is no issue or concern he won’t take seriously and resolve. There is no amount of money in the world that could equate to an evening around the bonfire hearing his stories from his years in India, Africa and Russia. Three weeks wasn’t enough, it may well be twice that next time (for I am determined to see that crocodile!). Mandaal is fast becoming the only place I want to spend my hard earned City-rat-race-accumulated time and energy.

Everything, the property is situated on the periphery of the jungle and one would think after reaching there, how can the sky be so clear, nestled in the middle of the jungle, Rohit and his partner has excelled in providing one of the beautiful home stays amidst the jungle. The food is amazing, words would be quite less to explain how beautiful this one day stay was at the property.

There are two things which could get better, one is the shower and taps could be maintained a little better and second the wifi could be installed near or inside the rooms using extra routers or something, so that rooms could have wi fi connectivity as there was no connectivity of wifi in the rooms and secondly it becomes a little difficult to communicate as we were not aware that there will be no network in the area and it was a little important for me to have the network connectivity at that time, so anyone could have such kind of emergencies. These are just suggestions as I am a little too much in love with the property to critically analyse it.

Mandaal Corbett offered a truly memorable experience during my visit this Dec. The serene ambiance provided the perfect escape, and the jungle safari was an absolute highlight. I had the opportunity to witness the magnificent tigers in their natural habitat, with the host Mr. Rohit Saroha which was an awe-inspiring sight.The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure every aspect of my stay was comfortable. I highly recommend Mandaal Corbett for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat amidst nature's beauty and an unforgettable wildlife adventure.

This is my third time to Mandaal. I usually visit here for the Host who outperform every other wildlife team at Jim Corbett. This time I came to try their new activity which is Cycle Safari and I loved every minute of it. Rooms are spacious, the adventurous approach to property start your excitement before you reach the property. Now what to tell about Goldie, the host of the property. Go and hear the tales yourself. And yes one more addition, The Food (it’s yummy)
