Hotel Radha Cottage Resort (Matheran, India)

Laden with archaic grace, the 125-year-old heritage property of Radha Cottage guarantees a royal yet welcoming experience. The prime bungalow was originally the dwelling of Sir Pherozeshah Mehta. The 3rd president of Congress, fondly known as the Lion of Bombay, whose statue stands proud in front of the BMC HQs.
