Welcomhotel By Itc Hotels, Pine N Peak, Pahalgam

Review by hotel critic

During our recent family trip to Pahalgam, we stayed at Welcomhotel, conveniently located for exploring the area. While there were some hiccups with the payment process, the welcoming atmosphere made our stay memorable. We enjoyed a lovely pony ride with a local guide to Tulyan Lake, which was a highlight for my mother and me—immersed in nature's beauty. The hotel staff were accommodating, particularly Rashid at the restaurant, who made our meals enjoyable with his thoughtful service. We appreciated their pet-friendly policies, making our cat feel at home as well. For those seeking adventure, the hotel offers activities like trekking and cycling. Though our overall experience was above average, it was sweetened by the breathtaking landscapes of Kashmir. As they say, “If there is a paradise on earth, it is here”—and it's worth visiting with family!
