Start with location
Lakeside is lively; the hillside above is calmer and cooler, with the better views. Decide which holiday you want before you compare rooms — it narrows the field quickly.
Match the room to the party
Couples are happiest in a view-led room; families need space to spread out. A room with a loft or attic earns its keep when you're travelling with children.
Mind the season
Spring and autumn are golden. Monsoon brings mist and green but slower days. Winters are crisp and clear — pack for cold nights and ask whether a fire or heater is on hand.
Ask before you book
Three questions settle most things: Is the view private? Is breakfast included? Can you arrange a transfer? A good resort answers all three without hesitation.
Come and see it for yourself.
