Welcomhotel, one of Indias fastest growing hospitality brands from the ITC Hotels group has launched its second property in Himachal Pradesh -- Welcomhotel Tavleen Chail -- with 65 well-appointed guest rooms, including 18 fairytale cottages and a luxury suite.

Nestled amidst lush green forests, each of the property's lodgings come with a private sit-out with breathtaking, panoramic views of the pristine mountains. This launch follows the inauguration of Welcomhotel Shimla about six months ago. With the addition of the premier mountain resort at Chail, the Welcomhotel brand currently boasts a portfolio of around 19 properties across India.

Rooted in the lap of nature, Welcomhotel Tavleen Chail is the ideal getaway for the discerning traveler seeking peace, fresh mountain air and nature in its purest form. Soak the abundant calm and the charm of the wilderness amidst picture-perfect backdrops. The experience is heightened by aesthetically-designed, well-appointed rooms/suites with a view combined with a wholesome yet contemporary local and authentic culinary experience. Set amidst a magical oak forest, the cottages are ideal for those seeking their "very own cabin in the woods". Every room has a private balcony that offers enchanting views of the mighty mountains.

Welcomhotel Tavleen Chail offers a wholesome yet contemporary culinary experience. The WelcomCafe Monal, (named after the Himalayan `Monal' bird) serves best of both global fare and regional Himachali cuisine. The traditional Welcomsthalika serves an assortment of authentic regional dishes on a platter. The ingredients are seasonal and locally sourced, supporting the farming community of the neighbourhood. The Swizzle bar overlooking the pine trees serves signature cocktails and an international wine menu for those idle evenings by the bar.

With a strong and steady rise in domestic tourism, this new addition of an unexplored destination will have a lot to offer the discerning traveler. A secluded gem within Himachal Pradesh that is the perfect antidote to the hurried pace of city life, Welcomhotel Tavleen Chail is a serene haven with majestic views of the Himalayan range. Crisp mountain breeze and a view dotted by lush green forests of pine and cedar await travelers seeking a rejuvenating experience.

The former summer capital of the princely state of Patiala, Chail is a quaint hill station cocooned in a beautiful nook, 37 kilometers from Shimla in the snow-capped Shivalik region of Himachal Pradesh.

Spread across three hills - Rajgarh, Sadh Tiba and Pandewa - the Chail region overlooks the stunning valley of Sutlej, offering panoramic views of the countryside

Kids have their own little haven in Ollie's Corner that has a host of outdoor/indoor play areas specifically designed to keep them creatively engaged and entertained. Guests who love the outdoors can go paragliding, off-roading and snow driving (in-season). Families can picnic at woods and meadows around the hotel or by the stream a short drive away.

Wellness and holistic rejuvenation has always been ingrained in Welcomhotel's signature hospitality.
