RAMGARH (Malla kumaon hills, Uttarakhand 263137, India
3 Hotel Rooms The Old Bungalow built in 1830 is one of the 5 clusters of charming colonial bungalows tucked away in a quiet corner of the Kumaon hills at the foothills of the Himalayas. These now-refurbished colonial bungalows once served as Dak bungalows; guesthouses for the British along with a gatehouse and a cowshed. Interestingly, this iconic property also once housed the likes of Jawaharlal Nehru and Rabindranath Tagore.
The a main compound houses the reception, dining hall and the Old Bungalow. In true Neemrana tradition, each room is differently designed, and has its own charm.
The bungalow consists of 3 rooms, charming verandahs, terraces or balconies overlooking blooming fruit trees, as well as, of course, the hills.
While breakfast can be served to you in your villa, you may have to head down for lunch and dinner. Parking is available near each villa, so you can also drive down to the main compound if you have your own car.
The bungalow is located on the Kumaon belt. The orchards adjacent to these bungalows hang with apricots, plums, peaches, pears and apples through the summer which makes the Ramgarh Bungalows unique.

In 1986, Mr. Aman Nath acquired Neemrana Fort-Palace and began its restoration opening it to guests in 1991. A few years later in 1992, Late Mr. Francis Wacziarg joined Aman Nath, by investing in Neemrana Fort-Palace when it was already running as a hotel. In 1993, Aman Nath & Late Mr. Francis Wacziarg co-founded Neemrana Hotels Pvt Ltd. an organisation, noted for restoring ruins and turning them into heritage hotelsWhat was first spotted in 1977 as a vast and splendid ruin of the Fort Palace of Neemrana has since become synonymous in India as a foremost example of architectural restoration-for-reuse. We have focused continuously on restoring our past historical wonders into modern day heritage hotels, which can give a true feel about our history, culture, heritage, traditions and values to the discerning traveller. We call ourselves 'non-hotel' hotels as none of our properties were originally meant to be hotels. They are all monuments of historical significance with different stories to tell about our glorious history and culture. And, they have been restored by us to their past magnificence and glory!
