Royal Orchard

Royal Orchard is located up on Kanyal Road in the Simsa area of Manali. We are situated in Gadherni, which is a bit of a climb but the views are worth it. You’ll find us near the Hotel Victory Resort. Life here is dictated by the seasons. In the winter, it gets quite cold and we get a fair bit of snow. The rest of the year, it’s mostly about the trees and the visitors who come up this way to see the mountains. We are not a fancy hotel ourselves; we are more about the orchard and the land. There’s always something to do outside, whether it’s pruning or checking on the fruit. The road up to Simsa is narrow and winding, which is typical for Manali. We see a lot of tourists passing by on their way to the resorts. Sometimes they stop to ask for directions or just to look at the view. We keep things very casual here. Our days start early with the sun hitting the peaks. It’s a lot of physical work and staying on top of what the weather is doing. We don’t really do big advertisements. Most people find us while they are exploring the Kanyal Road area. It’s a peaceful spot away from the main hustle of the Manali market, though it can get busy during the peak tourist months. We just like being out in the fresh air and taking care of the place as best as we can. It's a simple life surrounded by nature and the changing colors of the hills.
