Reviewe 19 April 2013

For many years now, the only images I could conjure up at the mention of a trip to the hills, were those of noisy and shoving tourists on crowded mall roads, staying in standard hotels which could have been hotels in any city, really! However, a trip to Soulitude by the Riverside changed my perception, and how! Perched on the banks of a river (Kalsa) and guarded on 3 sides by mountain cliffs, this extensively-thought-through and lovingly created property which appears mirage-like after a fun trek, exists harmoniously with its beautiful natural surroundings and boasts of a private waterfall (no less!), spectacular views, offering a rustic yet extremely comfortable stay and makes for the perfect getaway from the maddening crowd.
We couldn’t get enough of breathing in the fresh mountain air, soaking in the peace and quiet, listening to the river flow by, going on different treks everyday and reaching an even more picturesque spot every time (which we would like to believe we discovered!!) ,… .
The beautifully done up rooms (with such an attention to detail!!) , the lip-smacking barbeque meals , the friendly and attentive staff , our favourite lookout by the waterfall where we sipped endless cuppas ..these are memories that will stay with us forever. We returned from our trip rejuvenated, but left wanting more!
