The Himalayan, Manali

★★★★★

The Himalayan sits on a slope at Hadimba Road in Manali, built to look like a Gothic castle in stone and dark timber. It is the work of a single owner-architect over many years, full of carved wood, stained glass, turrets and a private art gallery. The rooms are individual, warm and richly finished, and the orchard rooms look straight up at the Dhauladhar peaks. There is a spa, a heated pool and gardens among the apple and cherry trees. The Hadimba temple and its cedar grove are a short walk. Old Manali and the Mall are a few minutes by car. It is the most characterful luxury stay in the Kullu valley, and the one to book for a Manali leg with a sense of place.
