Some hotels are just a place to sleep, but The Orchard Retreat & Spa feels more like a quiet escape. It sits in Zakura, on the Hazratbal side of Srinagar, among apple orchards and gardens, away from the noise and traffic of the city center. Each of its 35 or so rooms, from the cozy chalets to the suites, has a king bed and a private balcony, so you can sip your morning kahwa with the mountains in front of you. After a long day of sightseeing, you can float in the outdoor pool, sit in the steam room, or book a soothing massage at the spa. Over meals at Flavors Restaurant, you can enjoy Indian, Asian and European dishes or take a table on the open terrace when the weather is kind. Families will like the children’s play area and free parking, and the friendly team at the front desk is there around the clock. With Twin B Holidays, you can add this peaceful stay to a full Kashmir trip with Gulmarg, Pahalgam and Sonamarg, and we will take care of the cabs and sightseeing for you.
