Who so ever visit this place says HEAVEN .Nainital is one the most beautiful hill stations( in Uttrakhand) I have visited in north India.I have visited many times their and hope to continue this visit in future.
Kathgodam is the nearest railway station which is connected from Delhi also .You can get a taxi from Kathgodam which drops u at Nainital with 45 minute approx.The moment you see lake located in middle of those beautiful green hills , you praise it's beauty.
Their are many tourist hotels at reasonable prices all around the town.Through out the year their will be enough availibility of rent based hotel rooms to stay.Althogh I have noticed that prices of these hotels rooms rises very at new year time, but it's quite obvious also.
At a distance of around 20 to 30 kilometres their are other lake areas also like bhimtal , nakuchyatal, sukhatal which are again immensy beautiful and more than worth to visit.
At Nainital their is a telescope observatory also .I personally like to visit their and see stars.The local people are also helpful and surrounding have peaceful and joyfull environment.
