Karma Group has announced the acquisition of a new property in Dharamshala, in the upper reaches of the Kangra Valley in India. Dharamshala is the adopted home of the Dalai Lama and the exiled Tibetan government, with the Dalai Lama’s residence in the village of McLeodGanj, running along a ridge overlooking the town proper.
The property has 25 rooms and suites and with a restaurant, pool, gym and future plans include a Karma Spa, making it the ideal place to find serenity and relaxation.
John Spence, Founder and Chairman, Karma Group said, “I am delighted to announce the acquisition of our newest resort in the beautiful and spiritual town of Dharamshala. We will be renovating and refurbishing the property to bring it up to our high standards and expect to have it open for the main Indian holiday season.”
Sometimes known as ‘Dhasa’ (a combination of Lhasa and Dharamshala), Dharamshala is a popular destination for tourists wishing to visit Tibetan temples and monasteries and is a starting point to a number of trekking trails that lead trekkers across Dhauladhar into the upper Ravi Valley and Chambra district. The picturesque HPCA cricket stadium is the second home of the high profile IPL team, the Kings XI Punjab.
