Atmosphere Core has partnered with Satyadeo Hospitality Private Limited to launch a luxury boutique resort, ATMOSPHERE KUFRI, in the scenic hill town of Kufri, Himachal Pradesh. Slated to open in early 2026, the resort will be strategically nestled in the Himalayan slopes, just a short drive from Shimla, offering guests both tranquility and accessibility.
Speaking on this latest venture destination, Souvagya Mohapatra, Regional Managing Director of Atmosphere Core for India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bhutan, added, “The Himalayan hill stations have always been central to our vision of creating iconic luxury experiences. Kufri, with its awe-inspiring Himalayan backdrop and timeless appeal, is a natural choice for our expansion. As plans to enter this extraordinary destination unfold, and I am confident that this collaboration will redefine hospitality in the region.”
Salil Panigrahi is Managing Director of Atmosphere Core, “As part of our dynamic expansion across India, a key focus is our approach towards developing premium experiences in hill station destinations. As part of our mission to sign 25 properties by 2025, this upcoming resort is being thoughtfully designed to cater to a diverse range of travellers—from leisure seekers and corporate guests to curated events and destination weddings.”
Operating under the ATMOSPHERE sub-brand, the resort will initially offer 58 upscale accommodations, including deluxe rooms, suites, and presidential suites. In the next phase of development, Atmosphere Core will expand to 100 rooms, ultimately providing guests with uninterrupted views of snow-capped Himalayan peaks and lush green surroundings.
ATMOSPHERE KUFRI will feature a diverse culinary lineup. To begin with, guests can enjoy an all-day dining restaurant with outdoor seating. Additionally, the resort will offer a specialty eatery focused on northern Indian cuisine, a cosy bakery, an elegant lounge, and a chic bar — all thoughtfully designed to cater to refined palates.
The award-winning ELE|NA spa will anchor the resort’s wellness offerings, with therapy rooms that provide guests with rejuvenating treatments while overlooking the serene Himalayan landscape.
Pawan Kumar, Managing Director of Satyadeo Hospitality Private Limited, concluded, “Atmosphere Core’s distinguished legacy of unparalleled excellence and exquisite luxury exquisitely aligns with our vision to unveil a transcendent world-class resort amidst the awe-inspiring Himalayas. With a new generation of leadership ascending at Satyadeo Hospitality Private Limited, we are committed to manifesting ultra-lavish, bespoke hotels and resorts that embody the pinnacle of sophistication and grandeur.
