U.C.C Road Ri Bhoi Uminiuh Khawn

Ri Kynjai translates into Khasi as land of serenity. This Spa-Resort presiding over the picturesque Umiam lake 16kms from Shillong is aptly named "Ri Kynjai - Serenity By The Lake". The architecture is inspired and derived from the original Khasi thatch huts. Supported on tall circular stilts on the terrace of the hotel blocks are the hybrid cottages derived from vernacular Khasi architecture. The

All the public areas were very spacious and beautifully decorated with local fabrics and handicrafts, and with architectural tree roots dug up from the estate. Its setting was magnificent, on a hill overlooki

Writing this review sitting in one of the most serene places we have ever stayed in, overlooking a wonderful calm lake, with the sun just rising in front of me. We were originally booked for what is known as one of India’s best location and service hotels in Shimla, we canceled that due to excessiv

The property has 17 rooms in total, 5 cottages and 9 rooms. The rooms accommodating us overlooked the lake and the view was just marvellous to behold. Th

The pictures don’t deceive. Take a lake facing room for absolutely stunning views The entire decor of the hotel is high on aesthetics and wood. Many things to admire while you walk around the place inside and outside. Though there were ambivalent reviews the staff were helpful and prompt The Chinese

We visited the northeast region for a week, stayed in 4 hotels, and this was by far the best hotel. It’s in my top 5 hotels for nicest stay ever. The room and especially the bathroom is beautifully designed and the decor in the rest of the hotel is fresh, artistic, and beautifully integrated into th

I am an experienced traveller, who likes new experiences. For me to visit a property a second time on holiday, speaks volumes for the quality of my experience during my previous visit. This visit was as good. The rooms are large, comfortable and in keeping with local design and construction. The 45

We spent 2 nights at Ri Kinjya recently. Had read such great reviews that we were actually expecting a lot more in terms of experience but we left the place with mixed feelings, esp. for the price you pay. a. Wifi was not working and we had some extremely urgent calls. Reception staff helped us with
