Throughout India a variety of hotels and accommodations in every category and price range are found. The same applies to Bhutan. Where once princes, kings, colonialists or tea-garden-managers lodged the traveller now has the opportunity to be accommodated. This provides for exciting encounters with living history. In the Himalayan state of Sikkim, India, our boutique hotel The Bamboo Retreat is starting point for various explorations of the former kingdom. In certain travel destinations such as in the states of Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan or in Ladakh so-called permanent tent camps are provided. The usually come with private toilet and washing-place (sink) along with a proper bed, contained within a permanent safari-tent. If you do not wish to go without a specific hotel standard, we plan your itinerary accordingly and avoid very remote areas without standard accommodation in your itinerary. On the other hand, if you want to discover remote areas simple and basic accommodation is inevitable. |

…Luxus- & Palast Hotels… |

India offers top hotels in many tourist destinations such as the Taj, Leela Kempinski and Oberoi. These hotels can easily be compared to the world’s best houses and fulfil highest expectation in terms of luxury and comfort. In case of a trip to India to a remote region with simpler accommodation or after a trekking trip staying in a luxury hotel is a popular way to complete the journey in a relaxing way.
…First Class Hotels…In every big city of India many first class or business hotels are on offer. They come with different restaurants, bars, a swimming pool, fitness centre, etc. We integrate our pick of such hotels in your itinerary if you are looking for a somewhat more reasonably priced itinerary.
…Mid-Range Hotels… |
|
In some remoter areas with no other alternative or depending on your budget we integrate our pick of middle class hotels in your itinerary. These can be compared to 2 – 3-star hotels in southern Europe. In case of Indian Hotels Star-classification is not always a reliable hint. And there are many non-classified smaller middle class hotels that offer better ambience, service and food than many classified hotels. This is especially true for smaller, privately run hotels. For this reason it is all the more important that middle class hotels are chosen carefully. That’s why we continuously examine hotels to choose the best options for you. From such hotels we have been receiving positive feed-back continuously over many years. Another important criteria in choosing such hotels is that they reflect the local culture. …Heritage- & Boutique Hotels… |
