I had an amazing three-night stay at White Stone while visiting Manali for an official trip. I booked 9 rooms and a meeting hall for a conference, and everything was just perfect. The stay was fabulous, with a wonderful view, delicious food, and clean rooms.
The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, with a super comfy bed and large windows offering a stunning view of the city. The bathroom was spotless, and the toiletries were of top quality.
The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. They always greeted us with a smile and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. I especially appreciated the concierge, who provided excellent local recommendations.
The hotel is perfectly located, with easy access to local attractions and scenic spots. The meeting hall was well-equipped and ideal for our professional needs.
Overall, my experience at White Stone was outstanding, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Manali for both business and leisure. I look forward to returning in the future!"

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
Pros: 1) Location provides fantastic mountain valley view. 2) Rooms are warm, cozy and clean. 3) Room Service is very good. 4) Food is delicious and kitchen staff is courteous. 5) Front Desk Staff and Travel Desk Lady Ms.Sapna Thakur is courteous. Cons: Again it's the location, Prini which is 4.5 kms away from Manali Market. The infrastructure in Manali is pathetic, so there is no public transport nor can you walk on any roads. Local drop and pickup can be arranged for ₹500/- The Resort has preference for the folks booking through MakeMyTrip or any online portal. Hence they promise to provide pick up or drop facility from Volvo Bus Stand.

We had the pleasure of staying at The Whitestone Resort, Manali and it was an amazing experience in all aspects. It has the best location and the sit out offers an awesome view of surrounding snow peaks. We had booked the Glacial View room and I had spoken to Vivek at the reception about two weeks before our trip and was mighty pleased that he remembered to block the top most room as per my request. The view from our room was amazing! The room is cozy, neat and has an attractive décor. Even though the temperature outside was freezing and would even reach minus we were very comfortable thanks to the amazing central heating provided by the resort. We were there for 3 nights between 2nd Jan and 5th Jan 22 and were lucky to witness snowfall on 4th Jan and the mesmerizing view of clouds and snow covered mountains right from the comfort of our room. The food at the resort was very tasty and the breakfast spread was always amazing. Must compliment Vivek at reception, Rohit, Duni, Mihir Soni, Ankush housekeeping, and all the restaurant and room service staff for their prompt and diligent service throughout our stay. The resort has a cute Sing Sing bar, a well designated children’s play area, a beautiful deck alongside the restaurant, banquet hall etc. If we do visit Manali again we would undoubtedly stay at The Whitestone Resort and Cottages and recommend it as one of the best resorts in Manali.

We had an amazing experience at the Whitestone during our Manali trip! Just a 15-minute drive from Mall Road, the hotel offers breathtaking mountain views and a buffet with a wide range of dishes for breakfast and dinner. The outdoor bar and seating area add to the charm.
Traveling with our 10-month-old, we were especially grateful to Dharm from the dining area, who went out of his way to ensure our baby had freshly prepared meals. The buffet variety is impressive, and they even bring hot meals right to your table!
Parking is convenient, and room service is excellent. Highly recommend for families, especially those traveling with young children!

We visited in February as a family of four (a couple + two young kids) and had a great experience.
The Whitestone resort is a compact, beautiful, luxury resort and is maintained very well. The staff is cordial, friendly, and helpful at all times. We had booked the maharaja suite, and I would highly recommend it - the suite lives up to its name. Our kids had a great time in the hot water jacuzzi. The room is spacious, with a glass door that opens to a large balcony with excellent views of the valley/snow-clad mountains. The bed and bathroom were neat and comfortable. The room and the hotel have good central heating.
All the staff was super friendly. A special note of appreciation for the staff in the breakfast restaurant - Dharam and Rohin, who offered polite, efficient service and were super kind to our boisterous kids! The food in the restaurant was very good, although the one point of improvement that my wife suggests is to have more rotation in the daily breakfast buffet menu. The hotel also offers a great travel desk that is very efficient and reasonably priced.
Overall, terrific experience; I hope the Whitestone team keeps it up!

The service at the buffet was wonderful and throughout the 3 days there, Dharam really served well and quickly. The others also were very kind and helpful. View is amazing during sunrise and sunset😁. The live singing on saturday was very fun as everyone was enjoying the music and the atmosphere was enjoyable with bonfire provided as well.
