Ifseen Villa

Location, Room size, cleanliness, Staff behaviour & food quality

No generator during power cut

Calme sauf pour les chiens la nuit, les 2 ou 3 km de route pour descendre à l'hôtel depuis le centre du village sont assez rudes mais on s'habitue

The room was comfortable and hot. The staff was helpful and helped with visits and sightseeing

Ifseen Villa was, without a doubt, the worst hotel experience I have ever endured. The only redeeming factor is the view, which is admittedly good, but even that cannot justify the dismal state of this so-called “villa.”

First and foremost, the rooms are utterly uninhabitable due to a complete lack of insulation. Pelling can get very cold, and staying in one of their rooms felt like being in a freezer. To make matters worse, the hotel doesn’t have a generator, so during power outages, you’re left shivering in the dark without any heating. Cleanliness seems to be an alien concept to this establishment. The rooms and bathrooms were filthy, making it hard to feel comfortable or hygienic. The furniture was frail and wobbly—barely functional—and even the most basic amenities you’d expect from a budget hotel were missing. The food service is another disaster. They only offer vegetarian options, which is fine if done well, but they can’t even manage simple breakfast items like eggs and toast. The quality of food was abysmal, and dining here felt more like a punishment than a service. Ifseen Villa is a masterclass in disappointment. With no attention to guest comfort, cleanliness, or even the most basic standards of hospitality, this hotel is not worth a single rupee. If you value your peace of mind and comfort, avoid this place at all costs. The beautiful view is not worth suffering through this nightmare of an experience.
