LaRiSa Hotels & Resorts has signed a new hotel management deal in Palampur, located in the picturesque Kangra Valley of Himachal Pradesh. With four renowned properties already in the state, this addition—LaRiSa Resort, Palampur—becomes the brand’s fifth property in Himachal.
Spread over 2.5 acres, the upcoming resort is envisioned as an immersive nature retreat. It will feature an herb garden, fruit-bearing trees, and a serene Yin-Yang-inspired fish pond, providing guests with a sensory experience that reflects LaRiSa’s farm-to-table concept and wellness-focused philosophy.
The resort will offer 20 spacious rooms and suites, ranging from 400 to 850 sq. ft., each featuring a balcony with stunning views of either the mountains or the cityscape. Amenities will include an infinity pool overlooking the Dhauladhar range, a restaurant, a bar, a lounge, and a full-service spa equipped with steam and shower rooms.
Speaking on the development, Priya Thakur, Director of LaRiSa Hotels & Resorts, noted Palampur’s rising popularity due to its cool climate, natural beauty, pilgrimage sites, and adventure activities such as hiking and paragliding. “This resort marks a strategic expansion in a fast-emerging destination,” she added.
This new venture is in partnership with the Sandhu Family, promoters of Grassmere Resorts. Achint Kaur Sandhu, Partner at Grassmere, stated, “We aim to redefine luxury experiences in Palampur with this collaboration, offering something the market has long awaited.”
With its fifth property in Himachal Pradesh, LaRiSa Hotels continues to redefine luxury hospitality by blending natural beauty, wellness experiences, and modern comforts, offering guests an unforgettable retreat in the heart of the Kangra Valley.
