We got an amazing room, right on top floor (sort of like a terrace) of the hotel. The room was airy, with lots of windows and a private balcony and surprisingly super clean and large bathroom. Both room AND bathroom had beautiful view of the lake (bathroom had a huge window overlooking the lake). The staff was simple and nice.... More

Everytime I have been to Nainital I have stayed in this particular hotel just because of its location and terrace view of the lake which is better than Alka! The rooms on the 2nd floor onwards are better choice as the view from terrace and verandah is awesome.It was so peaceful to sit with a cup of tea and just... More

We stayed there fr 2 nights..The rooms we were given was spacious,, with beautiful wooden work n sofas. Just that the maintenance was not very good. Washrooms were just OK, could have been better. The service was ok, but the manager i guess did not believe in hospitality. Didnot order food from the hotel,, as there were many good options... More

Hotel Evelyn has a good location and a great view. The hotel is in urgent need of renovation. The staff is not too interested to working. Alright hotel to stay for a night. The location is very beautiful, the view it has early in the morning just after sunrise is worth the pain of staying in the stinky rooms.

While the family rooms above have been renovated, the double bed rooms below are in a bad condition. The rooms on the 1st and 2nd floors are poorly maintained with decrepit furnishing, dirty and broken electric and telephone fittings, dated... More

This is a high time when this hotel needs renovation. Oddly designed rooms snatches away the ease and comfort of staying in this hotel. Hotel doesn't score high when it goes to cleanliness and rooms and bathrooms have some strange stench. Got shockingly surprised by seeing cocked wash basin ducts. But the Good part of the hotel is courteous and... More

Excellent rooms, very good location, affordable prices, beautiful lake view. I fell in love with sitting on the terrace in the mornings and evenings, watching the lake and surrounding hills that change their makeup as the day progresses with sunlight changing angles. I could get a 360 degree view of the hills all around the lake...just heavenly! The rooms on... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Hotel Evelyn is among one of the oldest hotels in Nainital and has a rich history of hospitality. It has been serving guests even before the town became a retreat for city-weary souls and saw a burgeoning hotel industry. Before 1947, Mrs Page, a British lady ran a guesthouse of the same name, where the hotel stands today. Since Indian Independence, it has been owned and run by Mr S.L Sah's family. It was his will power and dynamism that metamorphosed a small guesthouse into a 60-room hotel.Today the hotel offers the height of convenience and comfort to guests. From the Mall Road you can get a glimpse of the impressive facade of the hotel and as you explore further a visual treat awaits you. It has a magnificent view of the Naini lake, the weeping willows arched delicately over the resplendent waters and the Holy 'Pashan Devi' temple right across. The flower be-decked terrace will simply take your breath away. The hotel rooms are elegant and equipped with modern amenities to make your stay a memorable one.Choosing from a myriad of hotels in Nainital can be quite a task, but if you want to experience the old world chalet-like charm of wooden paneled walls coupled with the luxury of all modern amenities, then ours is the hotel that you need to head to. ... more   less
