Kashmir Hotel

If you are driving down National Highway 8 in Anand, you might see us near Samarkha Chowkdi. Kashmir Hotel is at number 8 on the highway, right near the Vrindavan Garden. It’s a spot where travelers usually pull over when they are tired of driving. We’ve been here for a good while now, and the highway has only gotten busier over the years. We offer a place to stay and something to eat without any of the extra fuss. The rooms are basic but we keep them clean as best as we can. Running a hotel on the highway means we get people arriving at all hours of the night. It’s a bit of a tiring lifestyle, but we’ve grown used to the schedule. My brother and I take turns at the desk and handling the kitchen stuff. The Samarkha Chowkdi area is always full of vehicles, so it can be quite dusty and loud outside. We try to make it a bit more peaceful once you step inside. We don’t have a website or a big marketing team. Most people just find us because they see our sign from the road or someone told them about us. We’ve had all kinds of guests, from families on vacation to truck drivers who just need a few hours of sleep. It’s a simple business and we like it that way. We just focus on the daily tasks and making sure the lights stay on and the food is hot.
