During the second world war, British and American Air Force officers would come to stay at the hotel when visiting Kashmir for rest and recreation (R&R). After India and Pakistan became two independent sovereign states in 1947/48, they fought over Kashmir and the hotel was closed.. It was not until 1978 the family decided to restructure and renovate the hotel. It was opened in Sept, 1981. It was closed again in Sept.1989 when the militancy started. and was closed until April 1998. As the militancy petered out, hotels started renovated again until Kargil was started in May of 1999., thus effecting the tourist business. The Property did not open until 2004. Its unique peaceful and serene and clean environment for lodging, parties, picnics and weddings.
