The location, just opposite the iconic Chinese fishing nets, cannot get better. The building itself is elegant and charming and you feel as if you are living in an old colonial residence.<span style="background-color: white; color: #2c2c2c; line-height: 19px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #2c2c2c; line-height: 19px;">We stayed in the Braganza room which was huge and quiet because the room looked out onto a side street.The 17 th century building restored by Neemrana is beautiful with lot of artefacts very carefully placed without  losing the  colonial charm</span><span style="background-color: white;

Neemrana @ Kumaon

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: justify;">Last summer still mesmerises me and I still spend the whole day looking at those gorgeous images, that leave me spell bound till today. A week of summers spend on the hills of Kumaon, the Ramgarh and Muktheshwar..</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Neemrana is something that I love..the idea, the casualness, easiness, the warm colours, the blockprints, the furniture, the havelis, the old bungalows, their location and their wonderful food and hospitality is something unique. We spent our days in the "Neemrana Ramgarh Bungalows". The Ramgarh bungalows are located on the side of an entire hill.. There are various properties named in various names under the Ramgarh Bungalows. To see it, live and experience the hills is pure magic..</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: left;">Along the small winding roads, along the small daisies, the long and narrow roads stretched in front of us. From far we could see a hill from where we could see the cottages on top of the hill and down hill..There are four properties by the names, Old Bungalow, Writers Bungalow, Ashok Vatika and Cliff House. Each of them unique in their own way and beautiful in its own ways. Old Bungalow is where lunch is served, dinner is served to the respective places wherever we stay.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;
