deluxe, super deluxe or luxury suite: which resort room near manali should you book?

Picking from the resort rooms and suites near Manali at Anand Vardhan Resorts comes down to one question: how much of your trip will you spend inside the room? We have three room types, a Deluxe room, a Super Deluxe room and a Luxury Suite, and the gap between them is bigger than the names suggest. Here's how we would choose.

Quick Answer: Book the Deluxe room for a comfortable base on a shorter stay, the Super Deluxe for a balcony with mountain views and a work desk, and the Luxury Suite for a separate living area and snow-capped mountain views. At Anand Vardhan Resorts, near Manali, the three rooms range from 270 sq ft to 500 sq ft.

What resort rooms and suites near Manali can you choose from?

We have three. This table shows how they compare.

Room	Size	What you get	Best for
Deluxe	270 sq ft	Double bed, sofa, Wi-Fi, wardrobe, LED TV	Short stays, days spent mostly out sightseeing
Super Deluxe	350 sq ft	Double bed, sofa, work desk, storage, high-speed internet, balcony with mountain and orchard views	Couples, anyone who wants a view or needs to work
Luxury Suite	500 sq ft	Bedroom, living area, reading nook, balcony with a swing, snow-capped mountain view, hot and cold air conditioner	Longer stays, special occasions

Who should book the Deluxe room?

Our Deluxe room is 270 sq ft, with a double bed, a sofa, Wi-Fi, a wardrobe and an LED TV. It suits a stay where you're out in Naggar and around Manali most of the day and only need a comfortable room to come back to.

If a view matters to you, we'd steer you to the Super Deluxe or the Suite, which both list mountain views.

Who should book the Super Deluxe room?

At 350 sq ft, the Super Deluxe room adds a balcony with outdoor furniture, mountain and orchard views, a work desk, more storage and high-speed internet. That suits couples who want to start the day on the balcony, and anyone who has to take a few calls between sightseeing.

When is the Luxury Suite worth it?

The Luxury Suite is 500 sq ft, with a bedroom, a living area, a private reading nook and a balcony with a swing. It has a snow-capped mountain view and a hot and cold air conditioner, which helps when the weather turns.

The extra space matters most on a longer stay, when you'll spend real time in the room, and on an occasion that deserves more room. In the evening, one of you can read in the nook while the other sits in the living area.

Why does staying in Naggar change how you pick a room?

Anand Vardhan Resorts is in Naggar, on the Kullu-Naggar-Manali Road, not in Manali town. It's a quieter setting, with Naggar Castle and the Roerich Art Gallery in the village itself, so the view from your balcony becomes part of the stay. Our piece on why Naggar, not Manali town, is the better base goes through what that means for your trip.

Which room should you book for your trip?

• One or two nights, mostly out sightseeing: Deluxe
• A couple who want a balcony morning: Super Deluxe
• A few hours of work each day: Super Deluxe
• A longer stay or a special occasion: Luxury Suite
• Travelling with family: ask us about occupancy first, since the Suite gives the most room

What should you check before booking a resort room near Manali?

• Which view the room has. Only the Super Deluxe and the Luxury Suite list a mountain view, so ask if it matters to you.
• The maximum occupancy of the room, especially if you're travelling with family.
• Whether breakfast and dinner are in your rate. Our restaurant is fully vegetarian and serves Jain food, so check that it suits your group.
• Heating, if you're visiting in winter. The Luxury Suite lists a hot and cold air conditioner, so ask about the other rooms.
• Your dates, since a longer stay is when the larger rooms make the most sense.

What else is on the property besides the rooms?

The room is one part of the stay. We also have a fully vegetarian restaurant with Jain options, an open-air cafe, a wellness centre with Ayurveda-inspired therapies, a kids play area and an in-house Shiva temple with daily worship. If the surroundings matter more to you than the room, our guide to nature resorts near Manali is worth reading too.
