You must have seen such hotels in pictures or movies only. But this time while you are holidaying in Gulmarg, you will have the opportunity to stay in one such place. While the real charm of Gulmarg is unraveled in the months of November to February when the valley sleeps wrapped in thick sheets of snow, springtime is also appropriate for a visit when the seasonal flowers are in their full bloom.

The charm of Gulmarg lies in its isolation and so staying in the realms of the snow capped mountains and getting lulled to sleep by the whispers of the mountain breeze is an unforgettable experience. From first class hotels to budget ones and inexpensive huts and cottages- all are available in Gulmarg. For most of the hotels, business starts during the winter season. Heavy discounts are however offered during the off seasons.

Some of the reputed first class lodging places in Gulmarg are Hotel Hill Top, Highland’s Park, Pine Palace, Kingsley and Grand Mumtaz Resort.

Those which are categorized as two star hotels enlist names like Affarwat, Green Heights, Gulmarg Inn, City View and Shanu Lodge.

All of them apart from providing standard accommodations have a prime position and provide excellent services. The top class hotels have urban facilities like attached baths, room heaters, laundry and dry cleaning services, parking in some, car rentals and round the clock room service.

The rates may vary and in some cases might be slight higher but then to stay in such a heavenly place is an opportunity of a lifetime and that is nothing compared to a few extra bucks.
