Eastern India
Kathoni
Amidst lush greenery and tranquil lakes, Kathoni consists of two Lakeview Rooms, offering the perfect escape after a thrilling day exploring Kaziranga National Park. Boasting tall, luminous walls and stunning handcrafted bamboo roofing, each room’s high ceilings create a light and airy atmosphere. With a generous size of 460 sq. ft., these rooms come equipped with a luxurious king-size bed, a functional work desk, and a spacious living area that opens up to a private balcony, providing serene views of the landscape.
Dining features traditional Assamese dishes cooked on a woodfire, alongside an array of Indian and Continental cuisine. The buffet meals are prepared using the freshest, locally sourced, seasonal, and free-range ingredients from the Organic Farm and neighboring villages. The location provides plenty of seclusion while still being a short drive from both the Central (Kohora) and Eastern (Agoratoli) ranges of Kaziranga National Park.
