The hype
Travelers appreciate the quiet neighborhood and tasty on-site food but frequently complain about the small pool and nickel-and-dime charges.
Le Papillon
$40-60 / đêm
Đặt phòng nếu You want a budget-friendly base in Lonavala with a pool and solid Indian food, and you don't mind rolling the dice on maintenance.
Tại Sao Mọi Người Yêu Thích Nó
- Quiet location in Rao Colony away from the highway chaos
- Punjab Curry Grill serves surprisingly good 'bomb' Indian food
- Budget-friendly rates for rooms with balconies and bathtubs
Tóm tắt nhanh: A decent budget crash pad that tries hard but trips over its own hidden fees and inconsistent housekeeping.
Được đánh giá bởi @wanderwithpooja: I needed a quick break from Mumbai without spending a fortune, and this place was perfect. The premium room has this massive bathtub that felt totally luxe. Food was delicious, vibes were chill. Definitely my new go-to for a budget weekend.

5 điều cần biết trước khi bạn đi
💡The 'City View' is often just a view of the neighboring 'Aron Resort' or a construction site.
💡Hot water can be temperamental and may require running the tap for 5 minutes.
💡The 'Game Room' is just a carrom board and maybe a pool table that costs extra.
💡There is no lift (elevator), so be prepared to carry bags up stairs.
