Chalet Himalaya has undergone a 3-year multi-million pound renovation, retaining many of the original features, including the impressive 1.5-meter thick stone walls and fireplace. The sumptuous fur-filled living area centers on this original stone fireplace, which dates by to 1682. Now, the chalet also features underfloor heating under the floorboards discreetly heating the cosy living room. A hidden home cinema system with a giant drop-down HD screen can transform the living room into a private cinema.
Sliding doors decorated with engraved snowflakes on marble open onto the elegant dining room, featuring hand-carved dining table and chairs, upholstered with luxury designer shearling fur. The dining room extends behind curtains into a red-marble pool, which can be covered under solid gray marble slabs or enjoyed with the pool exposed and the curtains open.
There are 4 suites at Chaley Himalaya: Castenz Deluxe Suite, Kosciusko Deluxe Suite, Denali Grand Suite, and Everest Grand Suite; 2 of which are dual-level and allow the option of adding an extra bed on the lower level for an additional charge. All bedrooms can accommodate twin or double beds.
All bedrooms feature underfloor heating with independent controls, separate sleeping and relaxation areas, a stone-surround metal fireplace that can be modulated by remote control, fur and leather-covered day beds to lounge on, a mini bar, full length mirrors, bathrobes, room service trays, fur rugs, and a number of angora throws and cushions. Duvets and cushions are hypo-allergenic and natural, filled only with silk, organic buckwheat and silkworm extracts. Each en suite bathroom has a giant hand-carved marble bath which transforms into a hammam (steam room) enclosed by glass walls, in addition to the rain shower. Each suite offers a security safe, and high tech comforts such as HD TV, wifi, and electronically sanitary washlets and heated lavatory seat. All toiletries are made of organic products.
The spa therapy room is fantastic oasis with Italian metal-and-marble dust-infused painted walls for your spa treatment by candlelight. In addition to the steam rooms in all bedrooms, the chalet's sauna is made of Russian fir.
The partly indoor/partly outdoor pool can be revealed from under its marble covering by a secret moving floor device. The pool's depth can be adjusted to suit guest's requirements (great for the kids!) and also includes a wave machine for exercise-minded guests.
