We visited Pahalgam while on pilgrimage to the holy Amarnath Cave and spent several days resting before and after our pilgrimage at the wonderful Hotel Himalaya House. The location and view is spectacular, being nestled in the hills with views of snow-caped mountains, on the bank of the Lider river. Our room was spacious, clean, very comfortable, and with views of the mountains and the beautiful hotel gardens. All members of the staff where attentive, responsive, polite, and professional. We spent quite a bit of time speaking with them about life in Kashmir, Pahalgam, and the many important sites in the area. The food was incredible, serving both pan-Indian dishes as well as Kashmiri specialties. We congratulate the owner Gulzar for the amazing Himalayan retreat he has created and curates. He and his staff went out of their way to be helpful to us. I live the US, and I look forward to spending more time at Himalayan House during our next visit to Kashmir.
