Matheran is situated on a hilltop at an altitude of 800 m. In shady trees, and unpolluted air the journey to this hilltop could be through an exciting two hour ascent in a toy train, with food and drink vendors and monkeys jumping on and off, or through a tough 11 km. road hike passing from dense forests. Matheran cliffs with incredibly heights create stunning points. Pune Airport is 110 km from the hotel. Places of interest include Mount Barry (3 km), Khandala Point (0.5 km) and Sunset Point (1 km).

The main bazaar offers a variety of articles such as cane and leather articles, hats, chappals and the sweet specialty – Chikki ! Vehicles of any kind are not permitted in the town, which makes it a quiet, and peaceful place.
