Founder’s perspective
Quote from the founder of Araiya Hotels and Resorts – At Araiya, we are drawn to places that evoke something deeper, where landscape and emotion intersect. As part of the Araiya Anthology—a collection of stories shaped by place – Amaraya near Tagore Top, Nainital, reflects our belief in creating spaces that are not just destinations, but experiences of pause, reflection, and connection. The design is intentionally understated, with thoughtful interventions, natural light filtering through skylights, warmth underfoot, and materials that respond to the mountain climate, coming together to create a sense of effortless comfort.
