Amaraya Araiya Anthology

A charming, quaint, and cosy retreat, Amaraya Araiya Anthology is tucked away in the quiet hills of Gagar, Uttarakhand. Spread across 2.5 acres of terraced orchards, the intimate boutique property is designed to exist in complete harmony with its natural surroundings. Perched near the historic Tagore Top, close to Nainital, the hotel offers sweeping Himalayan views, abundant natural light, and an unmistakable sense of stillness.

With just 11 thoughtfully designed rooms and suites, the property creates a seamless connection between the indoors and outdoors. Glass ceilings, large windows, and private balconies open up to the surrounding landscape, allowing nature to become a part of the stay. The terraced layout flows through the orchards, while the interiors keep things simple yet elegant with warm tones, natural textures, and earthy materials that make the spaces feel bright, airy, and welcoming.

The Dining Room, the hotel’s all-day restaurant, serves a mix of regional and international cuisine, spanning Indian, Continental, Pan-Asian, and Italian flavours. Some standout dishes include the Himalayan Trout, available in both Tandoori and Continental preparations, the wholesome Kumaoni Thali, comforting Pahadi Khichadi, and a refreshing Kiwi Panna Cotta. Meanwhile, the Tea Lounge is perfect for relaxed high tea experiences with beautiful mountain views, while bonfire evenings and private dining add to the experience.

There’s plenty to do for guests looking to explore or simply unwind. Guests can embark on hikes to Tagore Top, Jhandidhar, and Kulethi, enjoy sunrise and sunset high teas, curated picnic experiences, sound healing sessions, yoga, or simply spend a quiet moment overlooking the valleys. At Amaraya Araiya Anthology, the focus is on slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and enjoying the beauty of the mountains at your own pace.
