i feel the best route for Nainital is

Delhi - Hapur - Morabadabad - Rampur Doraha - KALADHUNGI - Nainital

its much shorter than Rampur and Haldwani one. Also the road is much better and wider with less traffic. BUT avoid this route in dark.

Wrong routes.
the Best route is
Delhi-Moradabad Bypass - U turn after bypass towards corbett - Bazpur - Kaladunghi Nainital
But, small problem. A bridge has collapsed, change it to
Moradabad bypass - Ramnagar - Nainital

Roads are great, you can cruise at high speeds.
As for older haldwani route, I think a major 8 year old bridge near Haldwani collapsed a few days back, so do your homework

However Ramnagar route is okay

you mean this july? Not possible. I think you are talking about some other route.
I am talking about the 10rs toll booth bridge(long single lane bridge).
Now another bridge near Haldwani has collapsed.
Both were made by UP state construction company, the same company which build the Airport Road flyover in BLR.
Guys in Bangalore, be careful
