I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Channi Raja, especially due to its prime location near the mall road. The staff provided excellent service, and the in-house restaurant had delicious food. However, the weak mobile signals and lack of hot water during the night were notable downsides. Overall, it’s a decent choice, but I felt it wasn’t completely worth the price I paid.

Hotel Channi Raja is nicely located by Naini Lake, making it convenient to visit local attractions. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, but lack windows which affected our experience.

The hotel's location is its standout feature, right on the mall road and easy to access. The rooms are spacious and well-decorated, but the lack of amenities and steep price point make it less appealing for families. While the service is commendable, the absence of breakfast included in the rate felt like a miss. Overall, it’s a mixed experience; the charm of the surroundings is offset by the basic offerings.

I had a comfortable stay at this hotel located on Mall Road, very close to Naina Devi Temple and other attractions. The rooms, while clean, were somewhat small, and some lacked windows. I appreciated the pure vegetarian restaurant with reasonably priced, quick service. Overall, it's a decent choice for a budget-friendly stay in a great location, even if it's not the most luxurious option.

This hotel is perfectly located right by Naini Lake on the bustling Mall Road, making it super convenient for exploring nearby attractions. The rooms are clean and surprisingly spacious, especially the Deluxe Suite, but I found the lack of lifts a bit inconvenient. The dining options are decent, with tasty vegetarian meals, but the absence of complimentary breakfast was a letdown. Overall, it’s a great stay for families, but those seeking a quiet retreat might want to consider other options.
