IN GANGOTRI, the town is located on the Greater Himalayan Range at a height of 3,100 meters (10,200 ft). According to a popular Hindu legend, the goddess Ganga descended here when Shiva released the mighty river from the locks of his hair. During this time, a simple supremely holy town offers simple, no-heat rooms.

Each pod-suite has a spacious interior with fully equipped bathrooms, and an outdoor patio to immerse in the Himalayan view. The pods have earthen clay heaters and operate on solar electricity.
