Araiya is located far away from the main city of Palampur. Even though it is away from the city , the staff was very courteous and helpful. The literally made us feel at home. Sonia Mahajan, their on site manager ensured that all our needs were tended to and that we had a comfortable stay. I had gone with my wife on my honeymoon, they got the room decorated for us. We arranged for a special dinner by the pool and a whole romantic setup was done for us and as per the food of our liking. The head chef and the assistant chef ensured they gave us whatever we wanted and added their creativity and suggested really great options. The food overall in the buffet was really amazing. The staff of the restaurant and the house keeping were also very courteous and helpful. One thing not to miss out on when you visit Araiya is the add-on activities for which they have partnered with Exul Travels. They took us to the exquisite spots for the riverside picnic and jeep Safari. All in all we will surely be visiting Araiya whenever we plan a trip to Palampur without a second thought.…
A near perfect stay, but leaving with an unpleasant memory. While the security protocol observed may impress many, but I felt it was over the top. Hospitality from each and every staff was a perfect 10 minus one young arrogant manager. I hope he doesn't stay here too long or that he remains in a back office where guests don't have to meet him. Breakfast is just about average.
We stayed at Araiya only as a stopover for one night as we had come from Mcleodganj to Bir Billing for paragliding and had our flight next morning so we stayed at Araiya on the recommendation of a friend who had been there just a few days prior. But once we reached the property we regretted staying there for just one night. That’s how beautiful it is and the staff is the friendliest and the most polite staff I have come across anywhere. I strongly recommend this property and I will be waiting to visit here once again and next time atleast for 2-3 nights. We will always cherish the few hours we stayed at this property.
View at this hotel is the best view , dining staff was so good. Chef Suraj and his team is extraordinary good and so devoted to their work. Satisfied with their service at our candlelight dinner which was hosted and served by Puneet . All over must visit and stay.
Situated a few kilometres away from the town of Palampur, this property is perfect for a peaceful retreat! The hospitality of the place deserves a special mention! Everyone goes out of their to make you feel comfortable! Thanks Vandana and Sonia for the amazing treatment! :) The food is amazing too!
