MD'S MESSAGE
In the Year 2011, I and my Partner, came across the Land on which Shaantam Stands Magnificently Today.
The Land used to be a complete hill with shrubs and weeds all around. But, there was something which called to me that Yes, this is the place which we were looking for.
We Started construction on what now is considered one of the best resort hotels in rishikesh. It took us 5 years and tremendous work to complete the project. All this while, we used to visit top hotels in rishikesh as well as the world to know the best practices of hospitality so that we can educate ourselves about the industry.
In 2017, Shaantam became operational and ready to welcome it’s guests with open arms. Since then, It is always a moment filled with pride when our guests tell us about how much they loved their stay at Shaantam. We have always tried to instill a feeling of Love and Devotion in our Staff members and they have never let us down.
I envision Shaantam as a Flag Bearer of the warm indian hospitality and as a brand that advocates the power of Honesty and Devotion in all its doings.
PHILOSOPHY & VISION
Mission

Vision
To be among the best places on Earth and create tranquil experiences by doing small things in the right way. We believe in ‘Luxurious Simplicity’, and have a keen desire to become a destination of choice for our discerning guests; and to be an epitome of warm Indian hospitality.
Shaantam Dream
It was a dream come true for the founding partners of Shaantam.
It seemed like the picture-perfect place to de-stress and stay for a few days, away from the hectic stressful life all of us were leading in Metro cities. This Himalayan stay with nothing but nature all around seemed like the ideal summer home and beckoned us time and again. It was a home that offered peace and soul rejuvenation.
Soon the idea to re-design the place and open it up for everyone was born, as we wanted to share the soul stirring peace we felt there with likeminded people. This is how Shaantam was conceptualized. It is the name given by visionary friends to their brain child.
Shaantam is not a Resort. The goal of opening this place to the public is for inner peace - Shaantam- peace of body, mind and soul.
The dream is to share the feeling of calmness we felt at this place with everyone. The cacophony of cities does not let us listen to our own soul. And to be really happy and be at peace it is very important to be at harmony within.
Another vital aspect that we dealt with is the cuisine - ancient Indian sages believed that what we eat makes what we are. And that is why it's very important to stay away from non-veg food to gain peace. At Shaantam, we have adapted the concept of traditional purifying vegetarian food that keeps the body and mind calm.
Shaantam is our dream to bring back serenity within all of you, a best luxury resort where you can let go completely and infuse your mind with blissful and positive thoughts.
