Heaven on Earth, clubbed into a resort
We are seasoned luxury travellers having been to Europe, North America, Asia. The stay at Khyber would still rank among my top 3 stays at resorts of all time. Really memorable experiences include the Christmas surprise gifts, the Christmas Eve Gala Dinner with a memorable live performance by Mr Abid Ali. Rooms were extremely clean, well maintained, with nice view of the Apharwat and other peaks even from the basic category rooms. Very attentive staff in every restaurant. Special mention to the maître d’hôtel Salma, who attended to us at every meal. Try out their new Italian restaurant Brava. If I am back in Kashmir again, I am certain to book a few nights again at the Khyber.

Not worth the price paid!
Fantastic property with stunning views and large rooms. The experience was shredded apart with terrible service standards and their nonchalant staff. This property could be so much better if their hired some professional staff and actually paid attention to their guests. Food was also terrible for a 5-star luxury property. Totally not worth the price paid.

Overrated property. Not worth for non-snowy months
Khyber is highly overated. Definitely not worth what we pay for it. My feedback is in the non-snowy season. We visited in sept. We had booked a premier room. Room is not upto the mark and does not live up to hype and per night pricing, many things in the room are too basic. The bathroom is luxurious and nicely done. Breakfast is excellent with umteen options. The dinner buffet food is not worth the pricing. The hospitality is basic. Have stayed in similar premium priced properties like wild flower hall shimla, taj rambagh palace, taj faluknama, oberoi vanya vilas where the rooms , hospitality and warmth of staff , food taste cannot be compared to khyber.
