Groove Garden Dhanaulti is a retreat located in Dhanaulti, a small hill station in the foothills of the Garhwal Himalayan region. The hotel is surrounded by lush green trees and provides a 360 degree view of magnificent mountains, including the mighty, snow-capped Himalayas. Perched at an elevation of 2268 meters, Groove Garden is an idea weekend destination for tourists and travellers who are looking for peace and quiet amidst the nature and wish to wake up wrapped in a blanket of lush green apple trees, thick rhododendrons and tall deodars. The town of Dhanaulti, is positioned at an altitude of 2,286 meters above sea level. As a consequence of this height, this town experiences snowfall every year, from December to March. Nonetheless, due to its closeness to the Himalayas, you are sure to experience chilly winds and a cool temperature during the summer, to beat your summer blues. When the snow falls, the entire town gets covered in a thick blanket of white and the view is heavenly and surreal. Groove Garden Dhanaulti offers 5 varieties in terms of rooms.
