Cocooned in the cedar hills of the Dhauladhar in the Outer Himalayas, Hyatt Regency Dharamshala is acclaimed as its first mountain resort property in India. Boasting remarkable local-inspired architecture and modern technology that offers natural benediction to all kinds of travelers, the resort is especially immersive in its sustainable experiences.

Managed by Shanti Hospitality Management Services, the resort is exceptionally green - rich flora around, solar power consumption, reusing wastewater, minimum plastic usage, and a menu that is organic, healthy, and inclusive of herbs and vegetables that are grown locally.

Ideal for family, romantic, or solo getaways, here’s why residing at the Hyatt Dharamshala is a noteworthy experience for eco-conscious travelers:

IN-HOUSE BOTTLING PLANT

Hyatt Regency Dharamshala Resort is one of the very few hotels in India to have its water bottling plant on-premises which is in sync with Hyatt's Global Initiatives to significantly reduce single-use plastics. The resort also features reusable glass bottles in guest areas that are aligned with the well-being of guests and underscores the commitment to the many sustainable practices. The glass bottles are thoroughly sterilized before each use and then filled with pure drinking water and sealed shut with single-use stickers that break on the opening.

INFUSED BOTANICAL WATER

In collaboration with Michael Isted (The Herball) - a world-renowned alchemist, Hyatt Regency Dharamshala Resort has also created and introduced botanical infused water - blended and bottled in-house from Indian grown and distilled fresh mineral water.

THE SPA

The rejuvenating Shanti Spa at the resort uses essential oils, scents and balms, that are curated in-house using the concept of Herbalism, similar to exclusive beverages at 2082, for healing, pleasure, performance, and pure radiance.

IN THE PINK OF HEALTH

The resort uses Himalayan Pink Salt which is naturally rich in more than eighty minerals and is directly sourced from the salt mines located in the region. It helps balance the body's pH levels, regulate metabolism, helps lower blood pressure, and is great for detoxing the body!

Clean and Green Gastronomy at Hyatt Dharamshala

Hyatt Regency Dharamshala Resort has always fostered the culture of care and well-being of both its guests and colleagues. For this purpose, the menus have been designed to embrace the sustainable approach to dining and agriculture that includes the use of fresh, local farm produce.

Starting from their welcome drink made with local herbs. THYM, their all-day dining concept is a metaphor for purity and realism with both indoor and outdoor seating areas. While the feel is that of elegance and timelessness, the overall experience is unpretentious and authentic. The food is put in focus with a menu that highlights the use of local produce like gourds, pumpkins, cucumbers, free-range chickens, and Himalayan goat meat. The resort also has an in-house herb garden where they grow herbs and seasonal vegetables using organic techniques.

SIGNATURE INFUSED COCKTAILS

The resort offers signature infused beverages that have been curated for a holistic nature-centric experience. The concept behind the infusion reveals that the universe has the power of transformation through the process of Herbalism. With that thought in mind and Himachal rich in flora, Hyatt Regency Dharamshala Resort has created plenty of authentic nature-centric drinks. Some of the ingredients used include Angelica root Hydrosol, Juniper and Cedar Wood Hydrosol, Pine Hydrosol, Hedychium hydrosol, Inula hydrosol, Jatamansi hydrosol and many more. Even the sourcing for these products is based on their cultivation or process which happens right here in Himachal Pradesh.

FOSTERING FARM-TO-TABLE

Hyatt’s 'Farm to Table' concept dwells on regional flavours and fresh, creative cuisine - a favourite among the guests. Apart from locally sourcing one of the key ingredients of Indian food, turmeric, they are also sourcing varieties of apples grown in the state to add immunity-boosting drinks to their menu. Keeping in mind the new guidelines of social distancing, the hotel has also switched to a short table d’hote menu and made-to-order menus along with additional live counters!
