The main building and the nine villas surrounding it are spread across fifteen hectares of wooded hills, offering sweeping views of both mountain peaks and valleys. The modernist architecture and clean interior lines blend harmoniously into the setting, delivering the keys to Himalayan zen with remarkable ease. One could almost mistake it for a monastery, were it not for the modern amenities and yoga mats giving it away.
But let’s not forget the true purpose of this hotel: its Shambhala Spa. Four treatment rooms, single-sex saunas, an ultra-modern gym, an indoor pool and a solarium offering varied views over the valley’s pines, fields and streams. The focus is on Ayurveda, yoga and massage, for wellbeing that is both physical and spiritual. The experience wouldn’t be complete without a trek into the mountains, so follow your guide and go unblock those chakras.
