Prakriti-The Retreat

When we visited Prakriti, they accommodated our early check in request happily. Before even stepping into our room we thought of checking out the surroundings. A tiny pathway that led us to the backyard of the property, surprised us and how! The most pristine part of Bhagirirathi river, crystal clear waters were just few feet away from us. Later when we checked into our room, we were even happier to see that our room had a balcony offering the most stunning views! Our room provided wi-fi, Room heating (much needed in this area), hot water supply. As we had reached early we decided to gorge on some breakfast. We had piping hot aloo puri and parathas. Our remaining meals included a full fledged Punjabi meal for dinner and traditional Garhwali thali for the lunch next day. I would like to specially mention the Garhwali Thali which was outstanding! Made from the locally sourced produce our Garhwali Thali had Gahat ka Faana, Kaphali, Chhemi ki Daal, Kode ki roti, Chaunsa, Laal Chawal, Jhangore ki kheer etc. This thali is prepared on request and is available in two sizes (Full fledged Thali and a mini Thali) Apart from this one of the days when we wanted to drift away from the local food, we also ordered a Chinese are to our surprise that was really good too. The desi Chinese you need in that cold-cold weather! Tip – they also offer Jain food. During our stay Mr. Shyam, Mr. Rawat and the entire team was seamless in their service. They were proactive and went above and beyond to make sure we have a great local experience. At no point we felt that we are in a hotel-hotel. It felt more like a homely experience.

I spent there 2 niin October 2024. It was awesome experience there. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. As well as washroom was neat and clean. Room heater was available. Location was superb, just at the bank of river Bhagirathi. Small apple orchard was there beside hotel. Service staffs were very efficient. They served very delicious food in that remote place. We enjoyed our stay very much 😀.

Whatever I write about this place, the words won’t do justice. Each and every member of this resort is helpful and very dedicated in addressing even the tiniest concerns of the clients. The view from my room was very beautiful, I felt like I was in heaven.
