The Khyber Himalayan Resort & Spa
A world away from the ordinary, the Khyber’s eighty-five rooms and suites offer floor-to-ceiling views of the surrounding countryside, tasteful furniture, plush beds, and elegant decor. Ride the world’s highest ski lift, the Gulmarg Gondola, a short walk from the resort, and trek through meadows and forests that have enchanted travellers for centuries. Clad in locally sourced pine and slate, the resort is built in a style true to the architectural heritage of Kashmir. Specialty restaurants include Cloves, which serves a variety of world cuisines at its venue overlooking the forested mountains; Nouf, a casual dining spot that features barbecue served on a terrace with views overlooking the mountains; and Chaikash and Calabash, two tea and hookah lounges. Amenities include a cigar lounge, a well-appointed spa, a heated swimming pool, a children’s club, and a mini theatre. The Khyber is a scenic, ninety minute drive from Srinagar airport.
