The hype
The location is unbeatable and the architecture is beautiful, but the experience is often marred by noise and service hiccups.

Proč to lidé milují
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with surreal turquoise water views
- Direct access to Attabad Lake for jet skiing and boating
- The 'Infinity Lake View' rooms feel like you're floating on water
Rychlý přehled: A stunning architectural feat with world-class views but service and maintenance that struggle to keep up with the 5-star price tag.
Recenzoval @fizzaamersy: I finally made it to Attabad Lake and this resort was the perfect base. Waking up to that turquoise water right outside my window was surreal. I spent hours on my private terrace just staring at the mountains. Definitely book a Lakeside Room for the best views!

Reality check
Thin walls mean you will hear your neighbors, the hallway traffic, and potentially construction noise.
- Your primary goal is photography
- You want to wake up literally facing the turquoise water
- You are okay with 'rustic luxury' rather than polished international standards
Čistota & Údržba
7.5
- Housekeeping: Generally responsive, daily cleaning is standard but can miss details.

- Maintenance: A weak point—expect occasional broken fixtures, peeling paint, or finicky door locks.
- Linens & towels: Decent quality, usually fresh, but check for wear and tear.
- Odors & scents: Generally fresh mountain air, but bathroom drains can sometimes emit odors.

Časté otázky a skryté tipy
Vše, co opravdu chcete vědět, než si zarezervujete.
Is there a swimming pool?
No. The 'Infinity' in room names refers to the view, not a pool. There is no pool on the property.
Is the hotel open in winter?
Generally no. The hotel typically closes from late September to late February. Always verify dates before booking winter travel.
How far is it from Karimabad?
It is about a 20-30 minute drive (approx. 15-20km) from the main Karimabad market and Altit/Baltit forts.
Do they serve alcohol?
No, this is a dry hotel. You cannot buy alcohol on-site.
Is there an elevator?
No. You must use stairs to access upper floors (up to 3rd floor).
What dining options are nearby?
Options are limited. Most guests eat at the on-site Gojal Restaurant. Nearby options include Glacier Breeze (famous apricot cake) and Horizon Resort next door.
Insider tipy
- ✨
The 'Tent' rooms are significantly cheaper but are essentially glamping—very small and not the 'Luxus' experience.
- ✨
Book water sports (Jet Ski/Boating) early in the morning for calmer water and fewer crowds.
- ✨
Request a room away from the generator if possible to avoid the hum during power cuts.
5 věcí, které byste měli vědět, než se vydáte
💡The 'Infinity' rooms are on the ground floor, meaning guests walking by the lake can see right into your room if curtains are open.
💡Hot water can be inconsistent during peak usage times despite the '24/7' claim.
💡The hotel is effectively isolated; you need a car/driver to go anywhere (no walking to town).
💡Breakfast is decent but can get chaotic and depleted quickly when the hotel is full.
💡The 'Gym' is very basic—don't plan your fitness regime around it.
