Staying at Khyber Resort in Gulmarg was a truly remarkable experience! The breathtaking views of the mountains from my balcony room made every moment special, and the luxurious amenities added to the charm of the stay. However, I must say that the dining experience didn't quite meet the high expectations set by the rest of the resort, plus the service during my visit could use some improvement. Overall, it's a fantastic place, perfect for a getaway but be prepared for some potential hiccups during meal times.

The Khyber Resort is situated in a breathtaking location, surrounded by stunning snow-covered mountains, making it a memorable getaway. The rooms boast magnificent views and are cozy, though the price point raises expectations for a more breathable atmosphere. Service was generally very warm and attentive, but the dining experience fell short of my expectations, especially given the hotel's luxurious reputation. Overall, this hotel offers a unique experience, but there's room for improvement in certain areas.
