The Den Corbett Resort

The 'Den' is a beautifully designed, jungle-themed resort located right by the river. There are two access points to the river, both just a short 10-minute walk from the resort. On one side, you can even drive your car right up to the riverbank! The resort is surrounded by dense trees and lush greenery, making it one of the few places in the Jim Corbett area with manicured lawns perfect for hosting events, all while preserving the natural environment. The cottages are excellent—spacious and well-maintained, including two unique tree cottages. Amenities include two swimming pools, volleyball and badminton courts, table tennis, swings, and a library.  All meals are vegetarian, and breakfast is exceptional. While the food quality is good and the portion sizes decent, the lunch and dinner menus could benefit from more variety beyond the abundance of paneer dishes. Additionally, a wider selection of snack options would enhance the dining experience. The beverage prices seem a bit high,so patrons may want to bring their own cold drinks/ soda if they want to use it as a mixer with their booze as the rooms are equipped with excellent refrigerators. The staff is polite and helpful, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. If you love pets, this is the place for you, as they are very welcome. The resort has a gentle German Shepherd named Coffee, who kept us company during our stay. Unfortunately, he appears to be in need of more care and affection than he currently receives, as his owner is not present. Overall, this resort is a great choice for nature lovers and pet owners alike.

We just came back from an awesome holiday at the Den Corbett. Amazing location, great property with beautiful views of the river, yummy food, attention to detail.... but the USP of this place is their hospitality and their staff. I want to thank the staff at the cafe and the restaurant and at the swimming pool for taking care of our kids. And off course .. Coffee , their GSD who was the constant companion to our fur baby throughout our stay. Would certainly return sometime soon for another memorable stay.

A cloud Burst over the hills of Uttrakhand led to a bridge collapse some six kms from the hotel. The power supply of area was affected. Their "diesel for generators" supplier was reportedly stuck on other side of the collapse. Understandable. The manager sent candles in the room declaring that generators will be stopped from 11 pm to 5 am. No fan, no lights, no AC. Reasons: 1) have to save fuel for running generators for restaurant next day - Not understandable. 2) have to provide diesel to a resort in neighbourhood - Not understandable. 3) have to provide diesel to neighbourhood villagers for their petromax.- Dhami ji - please nominate a party ticket to this gentleman. 4) At 9pm in the rainy night he offered me refund - a bad gesture. Where would the customer go at such a time. Mr Manager, please tell me where does a paid customer stand in your list of priorities in such an exigency. Your resort is friendly to neighbourhood resorts & villagers but not to a customer who has paid 100% amount in advance. Where are consumer rights? Definitely not a refund. It should be the best services in disaster. Learn from the veterans of this industry, Mr Manager.

I had a good experience at this space. Rooms were comfortable. We have lost a gold chain at pool while swimming. Staff helped us and putted thier best efforts. At last we found it. Manager who made my reservation was hospitable and friendly. Breakfast buffet was rich and delicious. I highly recommend this space.

Had a wonderful experience at the resort The staff were very helpful and the whole atmosphere and ambience was wonderful! Special treat for us would be our experience and time spent with the cutie Coffee and the naughty coco! Would love to visit again

I escaped from the mad rush in Mumbai to Corbett in May, much to people’s surprise - Wouldn’t it be hot? Well, I think Mumbai was roasted when I chilled at Corbett. The Den is a solace to be in - vast expanse of greenery separated from the collective hub of other hotels across the road. That’s a big plus - it’s away, isolated and serene. The place is an art connoisseur’s paradise. The rooms and the entire resort is aesthetically done. Look out for the tree house for example. Every single space boasts of using local produce, natural products and local talent. That’s a rare find - business with an equal focus on community. Be ready to be loved by the adorable fur babies while you are here. And if you have your own pets traveling, nothing can beat the care and consideration they get at The Den. I indulged in the food here thoroughly - they make some amazing pizzas, pasta, cocktails. The Kumaoni Thali is a must try. It is served in the Kumaoni hut that recreates the local life and gives a perspective on simple living. No relaxation trip is complete without the spa therapy. The mud therapy is an experience in itself- you feel as if all toxins are out of your system. And imagine this under the mango trees with sunlight and light breeze soothing you! Last, but not the least, the lovely people here made me feel at home. A big shout out to Sakshi, Gurbaksh, Mohan and the entire staff. I was here for 8 days with a plan of ‘no plan and no schedule’ enjoying food, going for walks and treks, cherishing the sunset by the river, reading and playing with Sufi and Coffee. The Jim Corbett safari is the cherry on the cake. Team at The Den Corbett - thank you for making my trip so memorable!
