We are pleased to bring our hospitality to this destination. Storii Akanni Naina Tikkar is planned to reflect the serenity of the mountains and the cultural warmth of the region, offering experiences that are personal and rooted in the soil.”
Alisha Gupta, Owner of Storii Akanni Naina Tikkar, added, “Akanni is a dream we have worked on for four years, and it is a joy to open its doors. The name means ‘a place that brings joy,’ which reflects its character. Surrounded by mountain landscapes and fresh air, every space has been created to blend comfort and tranquillity. Akanni is more than a hotel; it represents our vision, and we are happy to share it with guests.”
Accommodation options include Deluxe, Superior, and Premium Rooms, along with suites featuring valley views. Dining venues include Cedar Spoon and Pegs & Tales, with menus inspired by local ingredients. The hotel also offers an outdoor infinity pool and a salon.
Located in Majhgaon Shamlati, the property is about 90 minutes from Chandigarh Airport and is close to attractions such as the Naina Devi Temple, Dagshai, and Menri Monastery.
