A luxury Himalayan haven to get in touch with your spiritual side.
"Going to Ananda is more like a pilgrimage than a visit" - Oprah Winfrey... With that kind of praise, do we even need to say any more?! We will, for it's not only Oprah that loves this high-end Himalayan retreat, but Condé Nast Traveller readers also voted it No. 1 Destination Spa in the world in 2019. It's fair to say then that anyone who books a stay here will not be disappointed. Whether you're seeking spiritual enlightenment, looking to escape from the world or just after a gorgeous luxury break, Ananda will definitely deliver - and then some.
Deciduous trees, the Shivalik Himalayan mountains and the majestic Ganges in the Singthali village are a formidable setting for Taj Rishikesh Resort & Spa, Uttarakhand, 30 kilometres from Rishikesh.
Built from locally sourced artisan materials and spread over 50,585 square metres, the architecture of this magnificent resort pays tribute to Himalayan villages and temple forts.
