Safe Travelling in COVID-19

This summer literally feels like an endless summer! All cooped up at home with nothing to do and nowhere to go. This pandemic sure has turned the whole world upside down.

We’ve been sitting patiently at the edge of summer at Unhotel, eyeing the world while we power forward with our content marketing brand (Studio4). Soon, things WILL go back to normalcy and we’ll be able to live life again like we once used to.

We’ll tiptoe into the new world waiting for us, with baby steps, doing away with all our fears, one by one. Small feels good. Small feels safe. And it is!

Unhotel is far from done! Even if travel is at a pause, it will UNPAUSE soon and we have a whole lot of places for you to look forward to when it’s safe again. Here is just a glimpse of what’s waiting for you!

Our beloved home away from home — it has seen a good, fresh harvest this spring. The City Escape near Sohna Hills is a short drive from Delhi NCR, and has been waiting to welcome you back. These farm-fresh veggies are waiting to be grilled over a quiet relaxed evening, or enjoyed in a nice stir-fry with some chilled Biras you spend time with your loved ones.

If you’re longing for a hill getaway in this hot summer, why not take a safe drive into the Himalayas? A secluded spot, free from the noise and bustle of the city? Bob’s Place is perfect for this — you can rent the entire space just for your group of friends, or even have a cosy family outing. Perhaps even a chance for your small office group or department to enjoy a getaway as everything starts to get back on track!

Missing Goa this summer? Anyone would — even though the beach heat these days has become unbearable. But what about a different side of Goa? A side of small villages and the meandering Zuari river, walks towards the sunset, and old Portuguese architecture. That’s what the unique Rainbow Villa is all about — a multi-coloured (literally!) home that opens its doors to a local Goan experience.

Feeling a little more outdoorsy? Why not enjoy the first monsoon rains and explore Nainital in a new light? Tucked away in the midst of pine, oak and rhododendron forests just around the bend from busy Nainital, lies our quaint Unhotel — Manor in the Hills.

Use the silence of the mountains as your backdrop as you cuddle by the fire with a good book in hand. You can even explore the mountains with a good trek and start your day right by watching the sun rise.

Play a game of pool or just unwind on the deck, soaking in the sun.

Nestled in the heart of the Himalayas, Manor in the Hills unburdens the traveller with dreamy views of mountains as far as the eye can see.

It’s the perfect way to detox, kickback and relax.

It would be unsurprising for travel to take time to build momentum. The opening of borders can’t be sudden — it needs to be SMALL steps, SAFE steps, in phases.

We’re here to remind you that we’re here while you take those steps, waiting on the other side while we create a healthy and safe place for you to reach.
