Unbelievable Manali Luxury: REWAT RESIDENCY INN Awaits! - A Messy, Honest Review
Okay, so Unbelievable Manali Luxury: REWAT RESIDENCY INN Awaits! – that's a mouthful, right? Honestly, I’m still trying to figure out what "unbelievable" truly means, but after my stay, I think I get the gist. This isn't just a hotel; it’s…well, something. Let's dive in, shall we? Prepare for a rollercoaster, because my experience was definitely that.
First Impressions & Accessibility: (Accessibility is a big one, yes?)
Getting there was…an adventure. Manali roads? Let’s just say they embrace the "rustic" aesthetic. BUT! Once I arrived, REWAT Residency Inn actually did impress. The exterior, even though it's a little…unassuming, is clean. And that matters when you’ve spent the last few hours dodging potholes.
Accessibility is key, and they get a good score, thankfully. Elevator? Yes! Seriously, huge win. Facilities for disabled guests? They showed they actually thought about it, which is a huge plus because in some parts of India, you're constantly reminded that accessibility isn't always top of mind. (For the record, I don’t have a physical disability, but I appreciate that they considered it.)
Rooms & Amenities: The Good, the Bad, and the "Meh"
Okay, let’s talk rooms. Mine had, get this, a bathtub. I’m a sucker for a good soak after a day of trekking (or dodging those aforementioned potholes). The tub was clean and deep, which is all that matters after all the dusty travel. Air conditioning? Yep, thank goodness! The altitude + the warm weather + the general excitement of being in Manali? I needed it.
They really do have a lot of features, like: additional toilet, alarm clock, bathrobe (yes!), blackout curtains (essential for sleeping in… which I did, shamelessly), a coffee/tea maker (bliss!), complimentary tea (double bliss!), a desk where you can work without feeling stuck, Internet access – LAN (I didn't use it, free Wi-Fi was just fine) , internet access – wireless (yup – free Wi-Fi, guys!), iron and ironing board (which, let's be honest, I didn't touch, the mountains are calling, not designer clothes!), a laptop workspace (I preferred the view), a mini-bar (stocked with the essentials for a quiet evening), a refrigerator, a safe…the list goes on and on!
Now, here's where things get interesting. The "unbelievable" part, right? Well…there were some quirks. The "complimentary tea" was actually the best part of the room, I'm not even kidding! And the free Wi-Fi? Fantastic, especially when you need to post those Insta-worthy pics from the pool. But the bathroom phone? I have no idea why that's a thing in 2024. I just…stared at it. It was almost comical. But hey, they try.
Oh! And the view? Absolutely stunning. I got the high floor room, and it was a view that kept me coming back. It was more important than everything else. I could stare out the window for hours. You'd be getting your money's worth with that view.
Food & Drink: Fueling the Adventure (or a Nap)
Where do I start with the food? Okay, okay, the breakfast buffet. Definitely. Asian breakfast, Western breakfast… it's all there. I'm a sucker for hotel buffets, okay? Don't judge. I went for the pancakes. The pancakes were good, but it's a solid breakfast. You can refill your coffee and go eat them again within the hour!
The restaurants themselves have a slightly confusing menu. It’s like they're trying to be everything to everyone. I think I had Western, Asian, and international dishes all crammed together in one meal. It was a bit messy, but not a dealbreaker. Good coffee, though, and that's important.
The Pool & Spa: Relaxation, Achieved (Mostly)
Alright, the pool. The view from the pool. Seriously, the thing that sold me on this place. The pool with a view is something you can't pass up on. I spent a lot of time in it. A lot. Floating, staring at the mountains, pretending I didn't have a care in the world. (Okay, I had a few cares, like whether I'd finish that book, but still!)
The spa…that's where the "unbelievable" almost truly hit. I had a massage. A fantastic massage. I'm talking, the kind where you forget your own name. The lady knew what she was doing. That massage was a game-changer! I even took a sauna later and relaxed. It was the best part of my stay, and totally worth the investment.
There were a couple of "meh" areas. The steam room was…okay. But the pool and a massage? Worth it.
Cleanliness & Safety: The Unsexy but Important Stuff
This is crucial, and REWAT Residency Inn earns serious points here. Hand sanitizer everywhere, staff wearing masks and all that. I'm not sure if they use anti-viral cleaning products, but the rooms were clean. Plus, they have a doctor on call. This is extremely important. I saw them sanitizing things, so that's a great sign. I felt safe and comfortable, which goes a long way.
Services & Conveniences: The Little Things (and the Big Ones)
The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful. The concierge was great. The front desk was 24-hour, helpful, and ready to make arrangements. Laundry service came in handy. They even offered currency exchange, so, they definitely have you covered.
Getting Around: Navigating the Manali Maze
Airport transfer? Yes! Thank goodness, because taxi service in Manali can be, well, chaotic. Car park on-site? Free of charge! Huge win. They also had bicycle parking, if you are into cycling around the mountain.
For the Kids: Family Friendly? (Kind Of)
They have babysitting service, which is awesome. Family/child friendly. Yeah, totally. They even have a kids' facility. It's for the whole family.
Overall Verdict - Would I Recommend?
Okay, listen up. REWAT Residency Inn has its quirks. It’s not perfect. But it's got heart. And that view? The pool? And the MASSAGE?! Those things alone are worth the price of admission. The staff are lovely. The location is convenient. And for that price? It’s a steal.
If you're looking for a luxurious, flawless experience, maybe look elsewhere. But if you want an adventure with a touch of comfort, a place where you can relax, breathe the mountain air, and maybe get a little lost in the "unbelievable" - then yes. Absolutely, YES.

REWAT RESIDENCY INN: A Love Story (and a Few Headaches)
Day 1: Arrival and Utter Bewilderment
- 7:00 AM - 9:00 AM: Alarm clock SCREAMS (thanks, phone). Drag myself out of bed, feeling like I've been run over by a yak. Airport chaos, pre-flight anxiety butterflies doing the tango in my stomach. The flight was bumpy, and the guy next to me wouldn't stop clipping his nails. Ugh. Reached Delhi airport with a mixture of relief and dread (because, Delhi). Did the usual dance of luggage collection, currency exchange (always a rip-off, isn't it?), and the hunt for the pre-booked taxi.
- Anecdote Alert: The taxi driver, bless his heart, was named something like "Rajesh," the most Indian name ever. Rajesh, bless his heart, immediately started offering me unsolicited life advice. Apparently, I need to "find a good wife" and "eat more dal." I’m pretty sure he hadn’t even LOOKED at me!
- 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM: The long, LONG drive to Manali. Roads are… well, let's call them "character-building." Think potholes the size of small cars and a symphony of horns that makes you want to dive under the seat. Rajesh, bless his heart, is now my personal tour guide, pointing out every single mountain goat and promising me the "best views of my life!" (Spoiler alert: so far, pretty good, Rajesh).
- 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM: Reach REWAT RESIDENCY INN. Whoa. The photos lied. Not a bad lie, not at all, but it’s… smaller. The lobby is a little… rustic. By ‘rustic’, I mean a little bit dusty. But the air smells like pine and the woman at the reception has a kind smile. And the view from the balcony… well, Rajesh wasn't wrong. That's a wow view.
- 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM: Check-in. The room is… okay. Cleanish. The bed looks comfy. (Okay, maybe more like that's the best bed I've seen in 3 days.) The hot water situation is a tad dicey, but I'll deal, I will..
- 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM: Lunch at the hotel restaurant. My stomach is rumbling like a Himalayan earthquake. Order something vaguely familiar (a thali, maybe?). The food arrives. It’s… spicy. Very spicy. My nose starts to sweat. My eyes water. This is what I signed up for, right!? (Maybe I should have gone for that good wife and eating more dal).
- Emotional Reaction: Initially, I'm mildly annoyed (the spice, the smallness of the room), but then a HUGE sense of relief washes over me. I'm here. I made it. It doesn't feel like I'm on vacation… it feels like I'm starting an adventure. I actually smile. Seriously. A real smile.
- 3:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Wander. Just wander. Down the road, past the shops selling colorful scarves and woolly hats (I already know I'm going to buy one of those). Breathe in the crisp mountain air. The sound of that rushing river. Stop at a local teashop (the tea is amazing). People-watching. The best activity ever.
- 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Back to the hotel. The sun setting over the mountains is a masterpiece, I will never get tired of this. Take photos. Try to capture the beauty, knowing full well that my phone will never do it justice.
- 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Dinner at the hotel. Decide to be brave and try something local, something called “Siddu". It's… odd. But after a day of travel, all I can think about is this bed, the one that looks welcoming and comfortable.
- 8:00 PM - 10:00 PM: Collapse onto the bed. Journal a bit. (Yes, I'm a journaler. Judge me.) Realize I haven't checked my phone in hours. Absolute bliss. Drift off to sleep with the sounds of the mountains lulling me.
Day 2: A Day of Revelations (and a Stomach Ache)
- 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM: Wake up to the sound of silence (and the occasional cow bell). The view from my balcony reminds me why I came here. This is when all the anxieties evaporate, and you know the trip is worth it. Breakfast at the hotel is… interesting. The same spice level as the thali, but with strange new flavors.
- 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM: THE TRIP TO HADIMBA TEMPLE. Okay, so this is where it gets real. Hadimba temple, a wooden temple dedicated to the goddess Hadimba, is stunning, the architecture is breathtaking. I feel instantly calm, which is a welcome change from Delhi. It seems that this temple is surrounded by pine trees, and the path will lead you in an adventure-like place. I will never stop taking photos.
- Quirky observation: These mountains are magic. I swear, I saw two monkeys dancing on a tree.
- Emotional Reaction: This is the kind of feeling that takes you back and just chills you to the bone.
- 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM: Lunch. This is where it all, went, wrong. I was warned by friends, the hotel, and even the travel guide - do not eat street food. I eat street food. Spicy, delicious momos. They were heavenly. And then… my stomach revolted. Badly.
- Emotional Reaction: "Curse you, delicious momos! Curse you!"
- 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM: Back to the hotel room. Curled up on the (now, much-appreciated) bed. Praying to whatever powers that be for the pain to go away. Mostly resting. Watching bad TV. Trying to remember, how dare I get sick.
- 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Manage to drag myself outside for a walk. Slowly. Wobbly. The fresh air helps.
- 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Dinner at the hotel, ginger ale and bland food. Still recovering.
- 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM: Early night. Hoping tomorrow will be better and praying that I won’t have to run the rest of the trip.
Day 3: Recovery and Reflections
- 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM: I miraculously feel better. Eat a very light breakfast.
- 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM: Attempt a small hike in the area. The views are phenomenal. I reflect on how tiny I am.
- Opinionated Language: This journey is amazing, and I can't wait to explore more.
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lunch and rest.
- 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM: Explore the local market. Buy more scarves. Finally buy the hat. Find a little cafe for a cup of coffee and a piece of cake. Watch the world go by.
- 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Back to the hotel. Sunset is as glorious as ever.
- 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Dinner at the hotel. Eat a very small portion of food. (Playing it safe!)
- 8:00 PM - 10:00 PM: Bed. Plan for the next few days.
Day 4 and onward: Rambling thoughts
- To be continued… The rest of the trip is a blur of mountain views, local experiences, and trying to get the perfect picture. The REWAT RESIDENCY INN has become my sanctuary. This place is… growing on me. The staff is friendly in a quiet, unassuming way. The bed is still comfy. The view… you just can't beat it.
- Messier Structure: I'll be honest, the details are a little fuzzy now. Did I take the day trip to that village? Did
Okay, spill the chai: What *is* this "Rewat Residency Inn" hype all about, anyway? Is it actually *luxury*?
Alright, alright, hold your horses (or your yak, whichever you prefer in Manali)! Rewat Residency Inn... well, it *claims* to be luxury. And honestly? For the price point, I'd say it's definitely leaning that way. Think fluffy towels, those annoying-but-oh-so-comfy bathrobes, and a view that makes you want to weep with joy/nostalgia/the sheer power of the Himalayas (take your pick!).
But let's be real, no place is perfect. More on that later. The core experience? Expect elegant rooms, a decent restaurant (more on *that* later, too), and staff who are generally, wonderfully, *trying*. You know? That goes a long way.
The View. Seriously, give it to me straight: is it worth the hype?
Okay, the view. This is where Rewat Residency *really* shines. Picture this: you've woken up, the sun is just kissing the peaks, and you're sprawled on your balcony, sipping lukewarm coffee (yes, it happens!). In front of you? A majestic panorama of snow-capped mountains. Seriously, it’s breathtaking. I'm talking stop-you-in-your-tracks, forget-your-problems breathtaking.
I remember one morning, I was convinced I saw a yeti. Okay, maybe it was just a particularly shaggy goat, but the point is: the view inspires that kind of whimsical, slightly delusional feeling. Don’t get your hopes up about yeti sightings, but DO get your hopes up for an absolutely stunning vista.
However, let's be real: a construction site *might* be the view from *some* rooms, depending on booking location!
What's the food like? Because let's face it, bad food can RUIN a vacation!
Okay, the restaurant... here's where things get a *little* complicated. They try. Lord, they *try*. The breakfast buffet? Decent! The aloo parathas are generally on point (though sometimes a little... oily. But hey, you're on vacation, right?).
The real adventure (and occasional frustration) begins with dinner. One night, I bravely ordered the “Chef’s Special.” Now, I wasn’t expecting Michelin-star quality, but what arrived... let's just say it was an experience. The chicken was a little dry and the sauce… let's just call it "unique." But the staff were so earnest in their presentation... I ate it all. Mostly. And secretly, I think the experience was *part* of the charm. They're REALLY nice people who just want everything to be perfect for you. Bless them! They're genuinely making the effort, which goes a long way. Just pack some emergency snacks, for the love of all that is good and tasty.
Tell me about the rooms! Are they as luxurious as they claim?
The rooms themselves are pretty darn good. Spacious, well-appointed, and generally clean. You'll find a comfortable bed, a decent TV (if you're into that kind of thing), and a bathroom that usually has hot water *most* of the time. (There's the occasional hiccup during peak hours, but that's Manali for you – embrace the quirks!).
I once stayed in a room that had a balcony larger than some city apartments I've lived in. It was glorious. Watching the sun set from there with a glass of local wine (they actually have some surprisingly decent options!) was pure bliss. Just... be prepared for the occasional creak from the wooden floors. It adds to the rustic charm, right? ...Right?
What about getting around? Is it easy to explore Manali from the Inn?
Location-wise, Rewat Residency is a bit outside the main hustle and bustle of Manali town, which is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, it's quiet and peaceful. You're away from the honking horns and the crowds. On the other hand, you’ll need a taxi or auto-rickshaw to get anywhere. It's not a huge deal, but factor in the travel time and cost.
That said, the hotel staff can usually arrange transportation. Just be prepared to negotiate a bit on the price, especially during peak season. And be warned: those mountain roads? Let's just say you'll be thankful for strong suspension (and maybe a motion sickness tablet!).
Okay, so, service. Are the staff helpful and friendly? That can make or break a stay!
The staff are generally amazing. Truly. They're genuinely trying to make your stay as pleasant as possible. They may not be perfect, and there might be some minor communication issues (particularly with English), but their sincerity shines through. They're eager to help with anything you need – arranging tours, recommending restaurants (besides their own, sometimes!), and even just pointing you in the right direction when you're hopelessly lost (which will happen!).
One time, I completely forgot my charger. Panicked, I went to the front desk, fully expecting to be out of luck. But the staff member not only had a charger I could borrow, but then spent a good half hour chatting with me, offering tips on the best places to hike. That's the kind of personal touch you rarely find these days. Big shoutout to Rakesh, if he reads this (I bet he doesn't, though!)! He saved my digital life.
Are there any hidden fees or unexpected costs I should be aware of?
Always, *always* check the fine print! Typically, Rewat Residency isn't known for hidden fees; they're pretty transparent. But, you might want to clarify what's included in your room rate *before* you arrive. Sometimes things like laundry or specific activities (like a bonfire, perhaps?) could be extra. Alcohol is also not included, obviously.
Also, be aware that prices in Manali can fluctuate wildly depending on the season. So, book in advance during peak times to snag the best deals (and avoid disappointment). And remember that taxi fares can climb during the evenings. All in all, just be the smart traveler you are and double-check everything!
Anything else I should know before I book? Any crazy stories or quirky observations?
Oh, where to begin! Okay, here's a random (and perhaps slightly dramatic) story. One morning, I woke up to what sounded like a small herd of yaks… *inside* my room. Turns out, it was the wind whistling through a gap in the window frame. That's when I realized that "luxury" in the Himalayas comes with a certain... *rustic* vibe. Embrace it! Bring earplugs.
