Clifton, Nainital

Clifton, Nainital Clifton is a heritage home, stay at a higher altitude and a more serene, secluded location, away from the chaotic tourist rush of Nainital.

At Clifton, old world charm reluctantly accommodates the onslaught of modernity. Despite flawless cellphone coverage, a TV in every room and wi-fi access, our attempt is to keep these modern day intruders to the bare minimum. We would much rather you enjoy a lazy afternoon in our garden, go on one of the many wooded walks that we’re fortunate to have convenient access to, or just curl up with a copy of a Jim Corbett or a Ruskin Bond novel from our library.

Things you notice when you are here at the Clifton Bungalow…

Birds arriving at the table.
The sky changing hues — more dramatic than mood swings.
A dog lazily watching the world go by.
A vintage hotcase holding memories of picnics and summers gone by.
And yes, the flowers that brighten your day every time you step out into the garden.

Sunrises that make you pause.
Night lights that make you linger.

A heritage bungalow in Nainital, this vintage mountain home carries an old-world charm that is hard to find today.

A home is always beautiful… but some homes carry stories.

Clifton Bungalow has been a home away from home for many for over a decade now — a peaceful stay in the Kumaon hills, where guests come to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the simple magic of a home with a view.

A place for quiet staycations, weekend trips, and memories that last.

Ten years. Countless conversations. Endless cups of chai, crackling fireplaces, lake mornings and mountain sunsets.

At Clifton Nainital, what began as opening our doors to guests slowly became something far more special. Welcoming friends, stories and memories that stayed long after the holidays ended.

Some came seeking the old world charm of the hills, some arrived looking for quiet escapes, and many simply kept returning, coming home to a familiar verandah in the mountains.

To everyone who has been part of these ten beautiful years, thank you for walking this path with us. Here’s to many more stories waiting for you at Clifton.
