From cedar cabins in Manali to riverside retreats in Rishikesh — our pick of the mountains' best-kept secrets.
The Indian Himalayas hide thousands of stays beyond the usual hill-station hotels. We travelled the Beas and Ganga valleys to find boutique cabins, eco-retreats and heritage inns that put nature first.
In Manali, pinewood retreats above Solang Valley wake you with snow-peak views. In Rishikesh, riverside wellness resorts pair daily yoga with the sound of the Ganges. Each one is verified, fairly priced and bookable in seconds on Pulp Hotels.
