The outskirts of Guwahati city features some serene and beautiful places. A quaint village called Sonapur, about half an hour drive from the main city, has few the nice resorts that are built in traditional style. Following are a few of fine resorts in Guwahati where you can have a memorable stay:
- Spring Valley Resort
A splendorous resort nestled in nature's lap with gorgeous views of the surrounding, Spring Valley Resort is a great place to spend your holidays in Guwahati. The place offers many recreational activities like horse rides, elephant rides, boating etc. Also, almost every weekend it features live performances by local bands. The restaurant in the resort namely ‘In Taste Dine’ features a multi-cuisine menu and you can also have authentic Assamese cuisine here.

Room rates in the resort start from a minimum of INR 3000, however, depending on the type of your room you choose the prices may go up.
