What we love

The all-in, all-mountain view concept leaves you free to be all-embracing. After all, this is venture- forth country. Seek out stupa-strewn vistas draped in prayer flags. Visit white-washed postage- stamp villages dappled with red-walled temples. Sip soul-warming butter tea brewed with Mustangi mysticism. Back in-house, the Sherpa hospitality is as warm as the exquisite handwoven blankets, while post-trek Sowa Rigpa healing is in the hands of an 11th-generation Tibetan healer. Everywhere you look, there’s that view...

  • ​29 high-ceilinged suites frame hypnotic roof-of-the-world panoramas of Niligiri Himal’s triple peaks
  • Veteran Himalayan guides with well-considered itineraries, along with horse-riding, mountain biking, archery and Thakali-style cooking classes
  • Picturesque picnics cooked by locals in ever-changing locations are a daily highlight, while evening meals in-house are a forager’s feast followed by fireside stargazing and sips of locally distilled Aara
  • Mountain-worn muscles are soothed in treatment suites with steam, sauna, plunge pools and, of course, that view...
