Taj Theog Resort & Spa, Shimla

This mountain-side retreat stands gracefully on a vantage point of the south-western ridge of the Himalayas. With awe-inspiring backdrops and five undulating acres of pine forests to explore, time comes to a standstill here. For an instagrammable morning, walk up to the tall french windows that offer views of dense coniferous forests, snow-fed lakes and gushing rivers. Every room at Taj Theog Resort & Spa, Shimla reflects the exquisite craftsmanship of the local culture- rustic furniture, wooden floorings, delicate woodwork, and thoughtful artefacts warm up the ambience. For food enthusiasts, a delectable array of culinary offerings in unique alfresco locations awaits. Dine amidst lush apple orchards or on the lawns in a classic English-style picnic. Cosy up under the starry night with a bonfire and enjoy a barbecue. To add to the exhilaration there are dreamy sunsets and moving clouds to chase from the patios.

Taj Chia Kutir Resort & Spa, Darjeeling

Prepare for a taste of nature’s pristine beauty at this property, nestled amidst the Makaibari Tea Estate founded in 1859 in Kurseong, Darjeeling. Those keen on reducing their travel carbon footprint will be amazed to know that the estate sustains local communities and follows eco-friendly practices. Bamboo, stone, timber, and wood weave the silhouette of the rooms here, preserving the essence of the tea estate. The rooms at Taj Chia Kutir Resort & Spa are as generous in space as they are in their luxury, comfort and views. A striking feature is the terracotta wall inspired by the Bishnupur temple. The alfresco dining delights you by curating dishes using seasonal, small-farm produce. The Makaibari Tea Lounge serves the best organic tea, and the in-house restaurant Sonargaon is known for its classic indulgences from East India. Every corner here is a breathtaking surprise of gorgeous mountain views, rollicking vistas, and blazing sunsets.

Savoy, Ooty - IHCL SeleQtions

A mystical, old-world charm set against the backdrop of the beautiful Nilgiri estates greets you at this heritage hotel. The stunning property has history and accolades to its name. Rooms are cottage-style with vintage fireplaces and private sit-outs opening up to the views of the six-acres of lush greens. Relive tales of the past: in rooms 101 and 103 where the teak wood beams were carried by elephants from Tipu Sultan’s palace at Srirangapattanam. The restaurants at Savoy, Ooty - IHCL SeleQtions cannot be missed as they serve signature Anglo Indian dishes along with unusual 400-year old Badaga cuisine. The afternoon high tea with buttery scones and croqêt on the lawns is reminiscent of British aristocracy. Spend your days chasing rabbits, sipping Nilgiri teas, visiting the 152 year-old library, cozying by a fireplace or relaxing at the spa. This is where you create unforgettable memories by the hour, each one different from the last.

Vivanta Dal View, Srinagar

A veritable paradise, this property invites you to celebrate being in unison with nature. Here, one can bask in the vibrance of the Tulips in spring, the snow-capped peaks of the Zabarwan range in winter, and the golden glimmer of the Chinars in autumn. True to its heritage, the rooms at Vivanta Dal View, Srinagar have unhindered views of the fabled Dal Lake with accents of copper and timber carvings and an earthy palette. Within the hotel grounds are two restaurants serving Kashmiri food as well as international cuisine. A flamboyant spread is the “Wazwan” experience, which combines Kashmiri hospitality with finger-licking traditional preparation like the grilled trout. There’s also a tea lounge, open all day, serving the famous Kahwa tea and an array of international delights. A shikara ride by on the lake or quiet conversation while gazing at the Himalayas are befitting moments of pure bliss.
