I did thorough research on internet to decide the best hotel/resort to stay in Shillong. Ri Kynjai was the best as per all websites/blogs. As we reached the hotel, all my anticipations came true. It was about 10 Km away from main Shillong Town Market. Being away from the hussle bussle of Shillong, Ri Kynjai was like a dream.
Ambiance of Ri Kynjai
Nestled in greenery in the lap of mother nature's Umiam Lake or Barapani as it is popularly know, Ri Kynjai refreshed us at the moment we entered the hotel. Mesmerizing view of Umium lake just hypnotized me. I thanked myself for doing a thorough research.
The reception had marvellous wooden floors and furniture with ethnic and exotic artifacts, curtains, cushion covers. I loved how traditional stuff was used and displayed across the hotel. Not only did it enhance the ambiance but also gave many employment opportunities to locals.
Our cottage was a duplex accommodation. The ground floor of the cottage was well appointed with all modern amenities including mini bar, fire place, LCD, tea coffee maker. You name it, you get it. Last but not the least, our cottage had a magnificent view of Umium lake. Words can't describe how beautiful the view was. I can only share pictures to make you realize the breath of fresh air one can get. I just loved my cottage. The upper floor had a single bed, table and lamp.
