best place to stay for research scholars.co-operative staff ,nice market available,all time transport available.hotel is centrally located,It is a hotel which is best and within the budget.most important thing is that restaurant is also cheap and best.

I visited Dehradun and stayed with family during August -2018. Stayed six nights. I noticed that the hotel is very clean and all staffs are very courtious and gentle. Food is very tasty and serviced in room. The owner is also enquiring on the quality of service. Very Nice Hotel and Pleasant staying. I recommend to all.

The hotel is very near to University of Petroleum and energy studies. Its a budget hotel with minimum requirements. But its very good for such a trip. Rooms are equipped with TV and AC. Non AC rooms are also available. Bathrooms are having geyser fro hot water. Food is provided in the room and the charges of food are genuine. Just outside the hotel good market is available and you can get all necessary things.

I recently stayed in hotel magnet house in dehradun for a period of 5 days as part of my residency whilst doing PhD in UPES.

Location : the hotel is right in middle of the busy premnagar market. It is 12 KMs from dehradun railway station and around 30 kms from the airport . Easy to reach and identify. Hoardings are available on both sides of the road . For students of UPES, both campuses , there are few modes of transportation, 1- share auto( magic) available from opposite the hotel . Best time to catch (0700-0830) as there are less people Travelling , get good place to sit and travel . Rs .15 for bidholi campus and Rs. 10 for khandholi campus ( do note there is a 10 min walk from the drop off point ) . 2- a auto can be hired for 175 for khandoli and 200 for bidholi campus , auto stand available exactly opposite the hotel .

Booking : I made the Initial booking through the internet , the response is swift and Rasik is very helpful. They have Two types of rooms , one is a standard room and other a deluxe room. When I reached the hotel in the morning , I was shown both the rooms and was asked to choose which one I would like . I preferred the deluxe room as there are distinctive advantages for the same .

Food: this is one area which the hotel has scope of improvement . The food timings is Limited , even tea is not available in all timings . The food when available does taste good . Morning breakfast is abundant and good value for money . ( 100 rs for 2 full stuffed parathas) . Lunch is not available . Dinner is normal rotis with a Sabji of your choice , as a frugal eater for dinner the quantity which is offered does become too much . They can consider offering half plates to catch this part of the business . Room service is good , pleasant and adequate.

Stay experience: all my needs were taken care of with care and passion. It is important I note a special note of thanks to Mr. Rasik Bhatia . He runs this family business . A enterprising gentlemen who is well educated and groomed , in whom I see the passion to make things happen for their guests , what ever may be the wish . ( as a note , my birth day fell in the period when I stayed and he was kind enough to take part in it , which did make me happy) he is receptive of new ideas and willing to explore. Laundry and ironing facility is available .

Scope for improvement : wifi- for external candidates like me it will make a huge difference if this can be offered .
Room cleanliness- this is another area which can be looked at for improvement.

Over all I enejoyed it and looking forward for future stays .

Great place to stay at Dehradun with family. I have stayed here 3 times during my M Tech at UPES. It is dead at the Prem Nagar chok. Auto and Bus service is abundant to any where in dehradun.

Rooms are neat and clean and so is the bathroom. Posting pics. Room service is great. Their in house food service may not be great but they more than make it up by excellent room service. Even if the kitchen timings are well past closing time, they arrange the food.

Best part is that the hotel is located in a bustling market place and still offers parking facility which is great.

Definately recommended. Specially for people who have work in UPES.
