Great home stay and food. Since the property is away from the city it may take some time to reach. Located in Kharghuli Hills, it’s such an awesome and calm location, located in a small hill and surrounded by thick trees 🌲🌳🌴 and plants. The view of the brahmaputra river is splendid. The hospitality of Ramesh ji is welcoming. Truly a vintage stay.
If you ever come to guwahati….I will prefer to stay at hilltop lodge… very good hospitality n well behaved staff specially Ramesh ji he treats us like family member n helped a lot in what ever you need… food was too yummy cooked by Ramesh ji and conversation was also good with Ramesh ji….next time I will come with my family and friends and stay at hilltop lodge…
It is a good place to homestay.
Staff: everyone is very friendly and helpful. Especially Ramesh ji and Rohit ji. I arrived very late and didn’t have any problems with check in, even if they were not present.
Rooms:- they are cozy. I would definitely suggest booking offline so that you can see which room would be better (if there are more members). The room i stayed in was good for solo travelers so online booking was ok for me. The best way to describe it is a homely room.
Most rooms are on upper floors and with stairs.
Location: it’s in a posh area. The view is good but uber will take 9-10 mins to book. But they can also provide a driver for long so you may not need uber at all.
Overall 4.7 experience during my stay
Very professional team, Rohit and Ramesh ji are awesome. Location is excellent, staff very good, three friendly dogs are a treat for dog lovers. Definitely a place to visit.
If you ask me, where can I get a paradise like experience while being on Earth?
My answer would be : Here at this place, called “Hilltop lodge”.
You should definitely book your stay here when you visit Guwahati.
It’s named after a lodge but it gives more of a British style bungalow + safe & a home-like feeling overall.
A few things I would like to note down here. I hope someday, someone might find it helpful. 👇🏻
* This hilltop lodge is located at Kharguli Hills, which itself is a posh area of Guwahati. And somewhere you might feel it’s a little far from the main central area while you head towards it, in the beginning.
But trust me, the view, the environment and the experience is worth every penny.
* You easily get shared Autos nearby in just 2-3 mins of walking distance from the stay, if you’re heading towards any central area. And if you book an Uber, it just comes around Rs.120-250/- depending upon the distance of 6-12km stretch. And come-on someone choosing Uber instead of shared-vehicle can absolutely afford that rate.
* Talking about food and hygiene, you will literally forget any other restaurant food once you have the taste of the food they serve. The caretaker of this place. He himself cooks for every guest.
My Goodness, during our stay we usually were out in the day-hours, so we had lunch and dinner often outside. But this sudden day when we had dinner at their place. Every cuisine and everything. It literally tasted so delicious. It had that taste of Home Cooked meal with the feeling of a 5-star restaurant. I wish we had more meals at their place. Ramesh Uncle(the caretaker) is not less than a MasterChef I’d say. ❤️
And for the hygiene : the rooms, the commodities, the washrooms and the entire area of their place is top-notch hygienic and we found it always clean during our stay.
* And, yes the best part about this place is Ramesh uncle itself, and of course the other staff too.
He is a man in his mid-50s I assume, but no-doubt he’s a person with the energy of a 20-year old, his sense of humour, knowledge that he shared during our sudden talks and a positive energy that he possesses can win your heart easily. When I say this about someone, I say this with experience. I have been a traveller back in the days, past 6-7 years ago. I also worked in tourism for a couple of years. Also had stayed in many places throughout Northeast and Mainland India and have come across a number of different minded people. It’s the first glance of a person or the first exchange of a few words. It’s just like once you enter a room and the kind of energy that hits you. I somehow can read people and the energy that they possess.
Well here, Ramesh uncle had that very delightful and friendly energy from the start. From the very beginning of those few exchanges of words. He wasn’t that way just with us but with everyone. He perhaps, is a sweet hearted person. I assure you, if you visit their place. “You will return back, finding a new friend. A friend like Ramesh Uncle”
May you have an abundance of good health and that lovely smile always❤️
* Okay, so for the people wanting to know if it’s comfortable to be here with your partner, boyfriend or girlfriend. The thing is I stayed at their place with my girlfriend for couple of days. Even before booking anywhere I was conscious of booking a stay where she feels more comfortable than I would do. Her well-being was important to me. And this place hilltop lodge gave us that homely-welcoming feeling from the very start, even the locality felt polite and positive.
The scenic view of the Brahmaputra from the hills and those evening walks around the place made things more romantic and positive between us. I believe it’s the place that plays a major role in connecting souls more. Haha, you might feel the same indeed, if you happen to come with your other-half. 😄
Well other than that,wherever we go or stay, it’s necessary to be polite, to be respectful, to be conscious and to know our boundaries always. 😊
Best Regards
Nishan.
