A good place to stay, and a fantastic place to eat. the chef at Rangoli Retreat is amazing, energetic and very homely. It was a good experience statying at Rangoli Retreat. Bang opposite the railway station and in the midst of the market is the main attraction of Rangoli Retreat.

Location of the hotel is very good as its accessible to the market, the garden, horse riders, station and walk-able distance from the entrance of Matheran. Food was marvellous, enjoyed the buffet as every meal was a different course with so much to offer that you'd not want to stop eating and the service was also very decent, with friendly... More

We didn't book it online, saw the rooms & then only booked after comparing all other factors. Exactly opposite Matheran station, giving connectivity to all places. We all were either Marwari or Gujarati's, so like the food they served. Lots of choices & good taste as well. Rooms were decent enough, not that great but manageable for a day or... More

I never suggest others to stay at Rangoli Retreat. It was my horrible experience with this hotel.You will never feel lonely in rooms as plenty of cokroches giving you a company. Absolutely zero pest control!! Totally unfriendly staff, poor room services. Food is OKAY.You will be extra charged for tea served in the room. No service after 10pm. Hotel staffs... More

The hotel is located band opposite the Matheran railway station in the beginning of main market area. Easy accessibility. Room was ordinary. But the pokey little bathroom with no room to manouerve was a concern and it was quite difficult to take the bath. All the water from the bathroom used to come out in room which added to the... More

The hotel is ok but the booking procedure was passed through the worst spoken and the most rude man in Rangoli retreat, Mr. Hakim. I dont have any personal grudges for him but I imagine a senior person at his position is so bad with hospitality then what should I expect from down the line. Book it on internet or... More

"Rangoli Retreat" is located right opposite the Matheran railway station, which could be considered a plus point. It seems that the hotel owners sit at the reception. They are very curt and business-like. Very unlike other hotels where you have friendly people at the reception. The rooms are very cramped and dingy. Everything about the room we got was wrong!...

I had been to Hotel Rangoli Retreat along with my friends. The main benefit of the location of this hotel is that it is situated just opposite Matheran Railway Station and in the main Market place. hence, time is not wasted in travelling and restaurants and shops are very accessible. The staff was cooperative. Rooms are ok and clean but... More
