WelcomHeritage Windsor Lodge originally built as a hunting lodge in 1909 soon transformed into a retreat for the royals and the British elites. The hotel has a vintage charm and creates a subliminal experience of transcending into a slow-paced life of the mountain dwellers. Bedecked with the period furniture, artifacts, and antiquities, the hotel is favored with colonial architecture, timber woodwork, and roughly hewed stones. Overlooking the verdant valley and the pinewood forests, the hotel has incorporated elements of relaxations and leisure for the guests aboard. Destroyed in the devastating fire, it resurrected back to its glory and evermore. The breathtaking cantonment town of Ranikhet in the Kumaon region literally means ‘Queens Meadows’ and is popular for its beautiful landscapes and encircling Himalayan mountains. One can experience serenity and salubriousness in every corner of Ranikhet and truly is a paradise for experiencing the marvels of nature and its creations. The phenomenal views of this tiny town and its proximity to many other adjacent places like Nainital have made Ranikhet a coveted tourist destination. The stay option at WelcomHeritage Windsor Lodge is defined suiting the needs of all its discerning guests. The luxurious suite, with breath-taking view of Himalayan range, deluxe rooms, and the cottages for a long stay is designed. With the Kafal Bagh, forecourt conservatory, The Raja of Sheikhpura lounge, adjoining golf course ground, the multi cuisine restaurants and tea lounge, impeccable services the hotel checks all the boxes for a wholesome experience.
The Kumaon Room - The restaurant offers gourmet cuisines from India and around the world. Reminiscent of the colonial era, the decor of the restaurant creates a perfect ambiance and hence presenting a scintillating experience. The ‘All Day Dining’ serves appealing selections of continental dishes like juicy burgers, pizzas, and sandwiches. We recommend the sumptuous frontier North Indian and Kumaoni delicacies.
The Tea Lounge- ‘Mountains and Teas’ are a match made in heaven and what’s better than slurping your favorite cuppa tea amidst the serenity of the hills. Located in the main lobby of Windsor Lodge, The Tea Lounge is a perfect place to enjoy a light banter or simply isolate yourself with a good read from our vast collection of books. One can also munch on the delicious snacks and take a stroll in the colonial-style veranda and the adjoining patio.
