ITC Hotels has expanded its footprint in the experiential hospitality segment with the opening of its new property, Storii Solan, The Kaba Retreat.

Just six hours' drive from Delhi and 1.5 hours from Chandigarh, Storii Solan is set amidst the tranquil side of the Kasuali hills, offering guests a unique blend of luxury and the mountain way of life.

Spread over five acres, Storii Solan features expansive suites with private balconies that provide stunning views of the valley and surrounding mountains. The resort's design integrates modern comforts with environmentally conscious building practices, embodying the unscripted and boutique charm typical of Storii properties.

Anil Chadha, Chief Executive of ITC Hotels, expressed his enthusiasm about the launch, stating, "Storii Solan is not just a retreat, but a celebration of the mountain paradise that is Himachal Pradesh. It’s designed for those seeking both serene getaways and private celebrations, offering stunning natural scenery and rich cultural experiences throughout the year."

Behind the creation of Storii Solan are Sonya Sahni and Navneet Sahni, who infused their passion for the mountains into crafting this forest retreat. Over seven years, they meticulously developed this sanctuary for modern nomads. Guests can enjoy mornings filled with birdsong, dine on European culinary delights at the property’s restaurants, and engage in outdoor activities like forest camping and mountain hikes.

Storii Solan also places a strong emphasis on local engagement and sustainability. The property features an arboretum with native Himalayan flora and organic orchards that supply the kitchens with fresh produce. The resort’s dining options include 'Buzz,' an all-day dining restaurant offering local Himachali and global cuisine, and 'Another Round,' a cafe that invites guests to relax with premium beverages.

With the addition of Storii Solan, ITC Hotels reinforces its commitment to delivering luxury experiences that are deeply rooted in local culture and sustainable practices, ensuring that every stay is both indulgent and environmentally conscious.

Atmosphere Core has introduced its fourth brand, ONE Atmosphere, marking its entry into the extended-stay space. The new brand is designed for modern travellers who prefer a flexible lifestyle, one that combines the comfort of home, the structure of a workspace, and the convenience of hotel services.

ONE Atmosphere will offer fully serviced apartments that bring together spacious layouts, branded amenities, seamless support and design-led interiors. These spaces aim to serve today’s work–live–travel pattern, giving guests a place that adapts to different routines and longer stays.

Speaking about the launch, Mr. Salil Panigrahi, Managing Director, Atmosphere Core, said, “As travel becomes more fluid and work becomes borderless, guests expect more than a hotel room, they expect a lifestyle solution, ONE Atmosphere is designed to meet this shift by offering a reliable model of flexible living that blends the warmth of home with the precision of hospitality.”

The design philosophy will focus on calm materials, efficient layouts and local art, creating warm and intuitive environments across locations. Each apartment will feel residential, supported quietly by hotel-style services in the background.

Built for long stays, relocations, holidays and hybrid travel, the brand will deliver a consistent ‘ONE Experience’, supported by a wide range of work, leisure and convenience amenities under the ‘ONE Promise’.

Highlighting the growth opportunity, Mr. Sandeep Ahuja, Managing Director, ONE Atmosphere, said the segment is expanding quickly but remains fragmented. He added that the brand aims to set a strong global benchmark by combining scale with dependable, high-quality experiences, drawing from Atmosphere Core’s proven operational strengths in the Maldives.

The upcoming pipeline includes urban, metropolitan and leisure destinations across South Asia, Southeast Asia and the Gulf, with more international markets being evaluated for future expansion.

Della Resorts & Adventure has unveiled its Christmas Festive Package for 2025, bringing the holiday season alive in a way that feels warm, thoughtful and pleasantly personal. The package offers a two-night stay, available for either 24–25 or 25–26 December, giving guests a simple but memorable festive escape.

The experience is designed around meaningful moments rather than extravagance, a stay that feels slow and unhurried, mornings that ease into a relaxed breakfast and an Adventure Day Pass that brings a playful spirit to the holiday. Guests can enjoy The Vegas Noelat, the resort’s annual Christmas production, and begin their evening at Café 24 with festive cocktails or mocktails that set the mood just right.

A Christmas Brunch becomes the highlight of the day, and every guest leaves with a traditional pudding, a nostalgic touch that adds to the charm of the celebration.

Children have their own world of December cheer with gingerbread decorating, a Santa Meet-and-Greet and curated activities designed just for them. For adults, the experience sits between a refreshing getaway and a soft festive reset, celebratory without being loud, joyful without being predictable.

The package is ideal for anyone wanting to step away from the city’s usual December rush and spend the holiday in a setting that feels warm, relaxed and a little extra special.
