- and how you feel about this place
Relaxation or letting loose is very important every once in a while, to refresh the mind as well as body. It helps us to carry on with the duties and work in life with enthusiasm and energy. Apart from my home there are a few other places where I am able to loosen up. One of such places is The Himalyan.
It is a luxurious boutique mountain hotel located in Manali. Built in the Victorian Gothic Revival style and perched at an elevation of 2003 metres, The Himalayan is the premier luxury resort in Manali area of North Western Indian Himalaya. Their Castle and Cottages are set in the midst of apple and cherry orchards, overlooking resplendent snowcapped mountain peaks and waterfalls plunging down rock faces. In this privileged backdrop, I find inspiration, whilst looking towards a vibrant and propitious future. Here grandeur, elegance and style have conspired to create intimacy and warmth without pretension. I have visited this place several times with my family and it’s as refreshing and calm as ever. It feels as if we are in paradise or in the lap of nature but in a royal and elegant facility. Being there helps me forget the worldly worries and being submerged in the beauty and tranquility of nature.
The Himalayan’s fine blend of inimitability and characteristic eccentricity finds appeal with connoisseurs of tradition, looking for a difference. Like the gentleman who sports jauntily-coloured braces beneath his conservative tweed suit or harbours a penchant for embroidered silk pyjamas, The Himalayan is proud of its individuality but doesn’t scream it. It provides a breathtaking view of beautiful and serene landscapes all around.
I just love sitting in the balcony of the room while sipping on a cup of coffee and gazing at the beautiful scenic wonders. Apart from that, jacuzzi baths in each castle-themed room or their salon and spa also help me unstrain. Venturing in their orchards and plucking fresh fruits is a calming and soothing experience. The four-star hotel is located at an elevated site away from the hustle or bustle of the main city, yet provides a full view of Manali. Rustling of leaves and chirping of birds is the only sound one can hear around which is no less than a therapy itself.
This is the best place for anyone to unbend and I will recommend all people visiting Manali to stop by at this place and discover nature at its best. Moreover, The Himalyan is equipped with every amenity one can think of so it’s the best place to feel relaxed.
