ザ ウェスティン リゾート & スパ ヒマラヤズ(The Westin Resort & Spa, Himalayas)

Westin Resort & Spa is a new hotel in this region and it was very apparent right from the time we set our foot in. We noticed the tastefully done interiors with a generous use of taupe paired with beige and cream. Very aesthetic and pleasant in all sections of the hotel. Infinity pool is to die for and for those who need warm waters tickling them there is a friendly temperature controlled jacuzzi right next to it. We found limited things to do in Rishikesh and it was quite crowded too, so we spent most of our time in the hotel. There are some nice options for local walks and treks if someone wants to explore. The rooms are very classy, the bathrooms a little European in styling (which some may find odd). Rooms have balconies with an open view which makes for a nice place to be in the mornings with your cup of tea. They organize high tea in the evenings on the eleventh floor with music and snacks. Food in this place is exceptional with well curated menus, artistically presented dishes, talented chefs producing world class dishes. We recommend dining at Toya for Sushi and Thai and one should not miss out the regional thali served at Akasa (you need to tell them a few hours in advance. This is super fresh) The people here make your experience go up several notches. We met Prem who was outstanding in his reception and given that he is from this region had a lot to tell us about it. At the Akasa restaurant, we were guided by ***si and Su*** at every meal with their warm, cheerful smiles. At Toya, Rita and Shija were always quick to recommend the right dishes and help customize our meals. On our last night, we were stunned by the quality of sushi that was on offer. Chef Pankaj can beat the best Japanese chefs. We strongly recommend trying sushi at Toya and especiallly the Thai sweet rice desert. Almost magical. But the sweetest part of that experience was chatting with Priyanka from our very own Amchi Mumbai. She and her team made that meal memorable. Some more notable names. Jyoti at the gym was super helpful and conducted a personal pilates session. Very rarely have I seen someone at the gym so enthusiastic and encouraging. Way to go girl !!! She also conducts the aqua zumba activities which is fun. And then Rohit at the travel desk who worked out a nice itinerary for us in Rishikesh and was constantly guiding us through all days. Chef Ankit at Akasa who made the best linguini we have ever tasted (was in Italy 2 months ago and nothing there came close). Will need to call out Executive Chef Ashish Kandwal who clearly has a big role to play in the quality of the food that is on offer. This *** has been to 10+ countries and the experience shows. The people here make this place and the young energy in the team makes all the difference. Please do visit. You will not be disappointed.

We recently stayed at the Westin Resort and Spa near Rishikesh. The property is new and beautiful. It is nestled in the Himalayas with superb views of Rishikesh and Dehradun. We were alloted a suite, which was spacious and well made. The highlight of our stay was the food. This was well ***aged by the caring and efficient Chef Kamlesh. He deserves special mention for his efforts to help my wife with her special dietary needs. We noticed his passion in the dining area. Would also like to mention others who served us tirelessly and with a smile always. Lily, Kamal, Sagar, Aalam,and Priyanka Bhanage. Would also like to thank Ankit at the travel desk, who helped us with our trip to Rishikesh. So, in all a great experience at a beautiful resort in the Himalayas.

We stayed at the Westin for just one night but for me it was my favorite hotel experience I’ve ever had. The front desk was helpful but the service and hospitality from the restaurant staff at Akasa was unmatched. We had the pleasure to have the same server Anuj at night and during the day and he treated our whole family with care as though he was a part of it. The whole time there was not a need that went unmet and the hospitality was magnificent. I couldn’t recommend this hotel enough and Anuj has set a new standard for hospitality and care and in my mind deserves all the accolades possible.
