Mohan's Mud Houses

I usually never write reviews, but for this extraordinary place I just feel obliged to do so. I stayed three nights with my friend in the mudhouse and it was a very lovely, quiet abd clean place. The small kitchen in the mudhouse included an induction-heating-plate (!!!) and all needed facilities for cooking. The greenery around the place is very well loked after, the view in to the valley is magnificent and watching the sunset was incomparable:-) The dining area in the main buildung is like sitting in a forest/dschungle-place, the menue had extraordinary fantasy-formed dishes and the crew was doing its best to meet all your wishes (even not on the menue). But the most impressive experience was Mr. Mohan himselft. You will rarely find a "boss" who is so eager in evolving every person around him (especially his employees) to the best of their abilities. He seems to be "primus inter pares" which includes finding solutions to every problem as well as repairing things by himself or showing other how to do. The winning smile, the generous attitude, the evolved thinking-pattern, the caring for even the details, the open-heart-attitude makes Mohan unique and the place subsequently mirrows all that. This three days in Kasar Devi will stay definitily forever in my heart an soul. Unending gratitude for that experience!!!

It was a wonderful experience staying in a mud house that stays warm when it's cold outside. really aesthetically done place and beautiful views of the mountains from all rooms. Do check out the mountain sunrise right from the room. it was a short walk to kasar devi and all cafes and grocery stores around. We really had a beautiful time simply being in silence at the porch outside our room and look forward to be back to enjoy natures beauty. all the best

Wonderful experience, I stayed there in total of 1+ months till now. I stayed at different hotels in Almora near Kasar Devi , different locations in Kumaon region but every time I came back here. Wonderful staff ( Kisan and other staff) , Owner Mohan and Puran great hospitality and helpful. Food - Best Pizza , honestly better than commercial brands, with best coffee. Location- great It has been more than two years , but the memories of my stay still lives within me. Thanks Mohan ( the fisherman I respectfully call him ), Puran and the staff.

Worst booking experience ever. The owner is extremely rude. He confirmed the booking on the call and then got a better price somewhere else, so he cancelled out booking without even informing us. We were informed of the situation when we were on the bus. He abused us on the call and cut the call without any respite. Please consider before here.

Stayed in mud houses for 5 nights, couple of weeks back. It is one of the best property in Kasar Devi area and you can get clean rooms for your longer stays with small kitchen inside the room for your own cooking. Food in the cafe is good, North Indian food and cakes are best. Continental food is something they need to improve on. Mohan is nice guy and a good host and he helped us to arrange one day hike from binsar sanctuary to Jageshwar which is 19-20 km hike from mid of forest and villages. It was the best service for me as I was looking after one. He and his staff was cooperative throughout the stay and they help you out if you need to plan your travel nearby whether it is hiring taxi, guide, scooty, suggesting places to Visit.

Amazing place near kasar devi temple , mr mohan the owner and his staff are staff Krishna / Dipesh are such warm wonderful people ... the food is excellent and the mud houses are a great place for solo / couple travellers ... Mohan being a avid traveler himself has an eye for detail ... the lovely kitchenette with the fridge adds to the touch | The mud house was a great experience |Can't wait to revisit it again in winters

Recently stayed at this property, I booked it on MakeMyTrip. here's how I'll rate it: Value for money: 4/5 (2,200/- per night) Room+kitchen: 4/5 Cleanliness: 3/5 (room was locked since a while but it was ok) Food: 3.5/5 Aloo paranthas, fresh orange juice were great Service: N/A since there is kitchen, room service is not available, but people were very kind to do that upon request. You can cook your food though. I'd totally suggest to stay here, this stay is beautiful, people are nice. Only thing that left a bad taste on the trip was taxi pre-booking through the host. They charged 4,500/- from kathgodham to the property. It was on Holi (buses were cancelled, but taxis on railway station were available). The same driver quoted 3,200/- to go back to kathgodham. I looked around for other available taxis and agencies. I found one from a restaurant right next to this stay. And The journey back to Kathgodham cost us 1,800/- Rs. which is 2.5 less than what was charged. Other than this everything was good, the place is lovely. Walk to Kasar Devi Temple, go to Jageshwar temple, then maybe visit Binsar and Mukteshwar.

Mohan's Mud Houses are approximately 10 km from Almora in Uttarakhand. Mud houses are situated in a serene place. I loved the place very much as I wanted to spend a holiday in a quiet place and it is. Mr Mohan is a very nice person. I liked the hospitality and the arrangements done by him. We were among the few first visitors who visited the property after hotels and resorts got permission to open after lockdown. Restaurant was closed and he served us from his home kitchen. Food was awesome. Though there is a kitchen in the mud house too. One can cook their own food also. Room was neat and clean. There is a big open space in front of the room to sit. We enjoyed sitting there and admire the Great Himalayas The view was awesome. There was not AC in the Mud House as the walls are of mud. The room was cool. There were basic utensils in the kitchen. Induction cook top was available for cooking. We prepared two meals also. I liked the muddy walls, lighting was nice. Refrigerator is required in the room to keep the drinks. We loved the home style chicken curry a lot. We ordered the same for next day dinner again. Thanks Mohan ji for your hospitality. Thanks Puran and Deepak for serving us. Both are nice guys. We would be visiting the property soon AGAIN as we liked it very much.
