The Riverview Retreat Corbett by Leisure Hotels

Amazing stay here with the river view, evening teas! Evening tea and associated activities were a delight. One of the highlights is also the cottage option for family stay! Would recommend this to families looking for a warm stay together.

Overview: The Riverview Retreat is a fantastic getaway for a relaxing experience in Jim Corbett. Situated on the riverside, it offers an excellent on and offshore experience of the Kosi. We had visited in the month of October which made the weather pleasant enough for sitting by the river banks and having a safari in the National Park. Room: We had stayed in the Duplex Studio which was situated right over the reception. It offered a vast space of 21 sq.m. paired with a shared balcony space with tables and chairs set up (see photo). The room was nice in itself but lacked proper maintenance and had few parts of the lights and A/C controls broken or straight up missing. The bed setup was nice with a double bed on the bottom floor and a twin bed setup on the top floor. The stairs to the top floor are a bit steep so one has to be careful. The room also comes with a 43 inch LED TV which has good audio and video. The bathroom albeit a bit small is nice and is properly maintained. Overall the room is nice after the renovation but the maintenance team has to step-up their work. Food: The room has come with a package of Breakfast + Dinner option. The main restaurant, "The Gurney" is where all the meals are served. The food was excellent and so delicious during both the meals. The breakfast options contained all of the usual options of juices, cereals, North and South Indian as well as European cuisines. Although the there were new options everyday, some were repeated from the past day but everything was fresh. There were also live counters for South Indian, Pancakes, Waffles, Paranthas, etc. ***** with multiple condiments, spreads, marmalade, etc. In Dinner, a similar pattern followed with sweet dishes and Chinese cuisine. After dinner, you could also sit outside near the river deck, and listen to the live music being played and sung by a talented artist. Now, onto the Complimentary High-Tea. The service was nice and all the food was fresh. Most of the food in the high-tea as well as the main meals was created by Mr. Pandey and his wife who have been with Riverview Retreat for 15-20 years (even before being acquired by Leisure Hotels group). Mr Pandey created the awesome Kullhad chai which full of milk and flavour. While his wife created the buttery and savoury Bun Maska. More dishes and drinks such as coleslaw sandwiches, pakodas, iced teas, etc. were also available. Overall, the food of the hotel was very flavoursome and appetizing. All thanks to the Chefs, Mr. Pandey and his wife and hotel management for upholding the quality of the food. River View: The River front is absolutely stunning and serene. It has a nice wide landscape with the calmness of the Kosi river. The resort has provided many entry points to the river banks which starts with a sandy path but quickly turns into a rocky path, which might make you trip, so one has to be careful there too. Apart from that, one can enjoy sitting on some boulders which are either just on the river ban

After researching a lot of properties over YouTube I came across this property. Must say all the effort was worth it. The room, the food, the amenities, the hospitality everything was exceptionally good. Overall the vibe was great and I had a pleasant stay at the property. If you are planning for Corbett you must surely consider this place. The property is newly renovated so don’t by the old pics and videos.

This is one trip I wish I had made earlier! Stayed at the Riverview Retreat for 3 days with my octogenarian parents and kids. Had a wonderful time at this property! We had booked 2 Premium rooms that had an attached living room. Just perfect for the 6 of us! Very spacious, sparkling clean rooms with staff that made the stay even more memorable for us. It was my husband's birthday and I had requested for a cake at midnight and some flowers the next morning. Everything was arranged well in time. The breakfast spread was grand and scrumptious. More than ample options for all age groups. We are vegetarians and I was delighted to see numerous eggless options in breads and bakery. The complementary high tea was the high point! Tasty snack options by the riverside every evening was simply amazing. The swimming pool was nice and clean, and the river was accessible. Three days and we didn't feel the need to venture out of the hotel even once. We had gone to relax and this was really rejuvenating. The staff was courteous, polite, hospitable and very sweet! Special thanks to each one of them for a lovely time!
