The Kumaon offers 10 luxurious suites, arranged in pairs across five structures. Suites provide private overlapping terraces with views of the Great Himalayan range. Lower units highlight locally-quarried stone, while upper suites utilize fly-ash bricks surrounded by bamboo sticks and copper wire.

Dining

The dinning at The Kumaon takes place in a cantilevered structure with floor-to-ceiling glass, providing views centered on Nanda Devi. The kitchen serves Kumaoni and international cuisine, with seasonal produce from local farms and foraged ingredients. Notable dishes include protein-rich black soybean daal and bhaang chutney made with ground cannabis seeds.

It sits along a route linking India to Tibet, offering access to rustic villages with medieval stone temples. The surrounding landscape features forests of oak, cedar, and rhododendron that lead to numerous trails.
