Hotel Karma Vilas Resort (Mussoorie, India)

An attractive heritage property with 13 modern guest rooms, the Karma Vilas Resort offers a serene location in the pristine Mussoorie hillside, about ten minutes from the Mall Road entertainment and shopping district. The guest rooms in the main bungalow are warmly decorated around original features such as exposed beams and floor-to-ceiling windows, while rooms in the cottage on site feature wall-to-wall pine and traditional Himalayan bukarti, or woodstoves. En-suite bathrooms and free Wi-Fi are among their modern comforts. The Karma Vilas Resort is a pet-friendly resort with a small garden, surrounded by six acres of lush forest. Free parking and a 24-hour front desk are also available on site. Travellers are offered a choice of two eateries: Buraans, an intimate Indian restaurant, and the Woodbrick Cafe, which offers Italian cuisine and a stunning valley view. Gun Hill is roughly three kilometres away, and the fascinating Soham Heritage & Art Centre is a very short walk. The lovely Bhatta Waterfall is within ten kilometres.
