Find 2-Star Hotels in Raigad

Radha's Cottage is a lovely retreat, very well located at the end of the road in Matheran. It's a simple place, furnished largely with period furniture. The food is outstanding - the best I've had in 6 weeks of traveling in India. For those who are unfamiliar with Matheran as I was, a couple pieces of information: - The ”toy train” runs very infrequently. Be sure to get a schedule if you plan to take it from the parking. - It's a 4.5km walk from the train station near the parking to Radha's. Don't believe the stationmaster if he tells you it's a 20 minute walk, it's an hour's walk. - It's still another 1.5km from the train station in the village to Radha's. If you've got a bag it's probably a good idea to get some help from a porter. - Sometimes the electricity goes out. When we stayed, these outages were brief, just a minute or 2. - Sometimes the water in the bathroom is dark brown. This surprised us one morning. It's dirt, and cleared during the course of the day.

Pros: swimming pool was clean and well maintained. Room and bathroom was clean. A small gym is there and a play area for kids with swings and slide is there. Food was decent and you can customise as per requirement but limited options are available and time taken for making is between an hour to 1. 5 hours. Cons: the property is located in a little interior area and the road leading to the property is little rough. Compared to the price they charged amenities provided were very less. I asked for a shaving kit and it wasn’t there. Felt it was overpriced. Would say it’s more like a 3 star hotel overall than a 4 star one although the price is close to a 4 star.
