Inside Jharipani Castle: The real-life Mussoorie location behind Vikrant Massey’s Musafir Cafe

The Indian Express reports that the Netflix series Musafir Cafe, starring Vikrant Massey, was filmed at Jharipani Castle in Mussoorie, Uttarakhand. Jharipani Castle, a heritage property surrounded by dense greenery and offering picturesque views of the valley, provided a fitting backdrop for the show's romantic storyline. The castle, which has a history dating back to 1932 when it was built by Crown Breweries as a guest house for British officers and soldiers, has since been transformed into a boutique heritage stay.

The property features charming wooden cottages, green-roofed buildings, and open spaces adorned with colourful prayer flags. During the November 2025 shoot, several parts of the estate were transformed into functioning sets, including gardens, terraces, guest rooms, and specially designed café spaces featuring in the show. The Jharipani Castle featured in the series also offers a limited number of individually designed accommodations, including rustic log huts, valley-facing deluxe rooms, and spacious suites with mountain views, some of which were also featured in the show.
