Himalayan Kothi ,Kais, Kullu Manali

All meals were curated meals specially to our tastes and choices. The Staff (Sujal & Balbirji) were excellent & very co-operative with a permanent amiable nature and smiling faces. The Owner Ms.Shalini was also very helpful and provided us good tips of things to do. Pity we had put aside only 2 days for this part of our holiday.

The overall size of the bedroom could have been better managed by reducing the size of the chairs, which though comfortable were too big for the size of the room. While room kettles were provided, the Tea/Coffee tray management needs attention. Maybe larger mugs could be provided instead of standard cups

Amazing location. Lovely Wood & stone cottage, beautifully maintained. Resident staff/cook Balbir an affable and efficient person, cooks up delicious local food.

Lack of any heating in bathroom, makes it a bit uncomfortable. But that is the case in most places in Himachal.

This places is 10-15 kms away from the Kullu town. It gives a perfect view of the Western Himalayan mountains and the Beas River. The traditional Kathkuni architecture gives the place its rich feel. It is away from the hustle and bustle of the Manalis and Kasols of the world, which makes it peaceful even if you are going there towards the year end. Me and my wife stayed there for 3 nights and fell in love with the place. The food is homecooked by Balbir Paaji, who makes you feel belonged. It is freshly prepared, has a local flavor and the taste stays on your tongue for quite some time. We tried their Rajma (Himachali style - best dish I had during my entire HP journey), Chicken Rara, Dal Makhni and other breakfast items. The owners will take you through a tour of the place including the Apple and Peach plantations. We went there during winters, however when these trees bear fruits around May-Aug, the place must be nowhere short of heaven. We will visit this place again for sure. You may want to ditch the commercially sabotaged accomodations of Manali, Kasol and rather visit this gem in Kullu. It will have a lasting impression for sure

This stay is really beautiful and since located away from the main city hustle it adds more stars to it. We had booked deluxe rooms which were quite spacious and had all the basic amenities. The room had wooden flooring and ceiling and interiors were beautiful. Bathrooms were also quite large, clean and well maintained. There is a beautiful lawn in the center of the property which hosts a sit out area and the view from there is splendid. You can see the high mountains with the city underneath

Since the rooms had wooden floorings and ceilings it was quite a little disturbing when the guests in the room above ran errands. Also the window curtains aren't very helpful for people requiring complete privacy as there are small gaps between the multiple curtains whilst they are closed.
