Staying alone and spending quality time with oneself, one’s soul is what we stand for. However, special arrangements are made if requests for sharing a room are received. Requests should be sent before time so that corresponding arrangements can be made. Rooms stand erect amid lush green environments wherein you will wake up with the chirping of birds and would sleep under the silence of sleeping Himalayas.
Every possible care is taken that every assigned room is well-lit, cleaned, and ventilated. Proper windows and ventilators are provided, thus, inviting rushing sounds of river Ganges and gushing chilly breeze. Washrooms are clean and hygienic. Lukewarm water is available on request. The rooms are equipped with all modern facilities like showers and other basic amenities. 24 x 7 Wi-Fi connection is available (We understand the need for sharing and uploading the pictures over social networks when the environment is so soothing!).
