LaRiSa Hotels and Resorts has signed a new hotel management agreement for a luxury property in Palampur, located in Himachal Pradesh's Kangra Valley. This will be LaRiSa’s fifth property in the state, adding to its portfolio of four acclaimed resorts.

The upcoming LaRiSa Resort, Palampur, will span 2.5 acres and is envisioned as an immersive natural retreat. It will feature a herb garden, fruit-bearing trees, and a tranquil Yin-Yang-inspired fish pond, reflecting LaRiSa’s commitment to farm-to-table dining and holistic wellness. The resort will offer 20 spacious rooms and suites ranging from 400 to 850 sq. ft., each with balconies offering panoramic views of either the mountains or the city.

Amenities include an infinity pool with views of the Dhauladhar range, a restaurant, bar, lounge, and a full-service spa with steam and shower rooms. Priya Thakur, Director of LaRiSa Hotels and Resorts, said, “This resort marks a strategic expansion in a fast-emerging destination.” The project is a partnership with the Sandhu Family, promoters of Grassmere Resorts.
