100k-120k for 5 nights seems like a super deal. Do you have any idea whether safari or anything else inclusive in this rates?

Just breakfast if you're holding Platinum status as of now. It's not going to be all-inclusive. But good thing is, safari vehicles are affordable here.

I got for 97000 for 5 Nights. Nothing else included.

Let's see how the experience goes. I am travelling later this year. 5 months later.

Some people have mentioned that a safari vehicle costs ₹7,500 (per session or per day, not sure!) and can accommodate 5-6 people. There will be two safaris daily, morning and evening.

Even I booked for 96k points for 5 nights during Diwali days... Not much information available yet about the amenities and facilities at the resort... I was planning for Westin rishikesh but currently have booked this.. Will decide once more information is available

Not a bad deal for those want to buy points and book, roughly 70000Rs for stay worth 3,00,000/-

They've adjusted the cash price, it's going for around ₹28k per night. So you're getting a stay worth ₹140k for 120k points, which is still a good deal.

I have checked and points seems increased. Which dates you are referring to?

 

[ALOAK]

I just saw for Sept 22nd to 27 sept 2025 it is 120k points for 5days delux Guest Room for 2 adults. But rate is without breakfast. Which is 28025inr inclusive of tax per night

 

[ALOAK]

May till June same points 120k for 5 days but for April it shows 186k.

Earlier for 5N it was 97K across dates. So they have increased points also.

 

[malavkarkar]

120k is a good rate if you're able to book peak season dates. I've made 3 bookings in the month of November for 126k, 123k, and 110k points, and the same dates are going for 156k, 168k, and 142k points now. Rates have definitely increased.

 

[ALOAK]

Looks like 1 point is 27 paise value if 120k for 5 nights if per night is 28025.

How to reach the hotel (best air route) , taxi charges from airport to hotel? Jim Corbett park fees/tour cost?

 

[malavkarkar]

Looks like 1 point is 27 paise value if 120k for 5 nights if per night is 28025.

That would be 120k points or ₹140k for 5 nights, value of 1.16 per point.
