Situated along Gujarat’s western coast, Somnath is renowned for the Shree Somnath Jyotirlinga Temple, regarded as the first among the twelve Jyotirlingas in India. The destination combines spirituality and heritage with its coastal setting, with attractions such as Triveni Sangam, where the Hiran, Kapila and Saraswati rivers meet the Arabian Sea, and Bhalka Tirth adding to its cultural and religious significance. The wider Gir-Somnath region also offers access to attractions including Gir National Park, making the destination relevant to both pilgrimage and leisure travellers.
The newly launched hotel features 59 rooms, comprising 24 Deluxe Rooms, 24 Premium Deluxe Rooms, 10 Suites and one Grand Suite. The rooms range from 252 sq. ft. in the Deluxe category to 630 sq. ft. for the Grand Suite, providing options for both individual travellers and families. The property’s dining offering is led by Momentt, a 160-cover multi-cuisine restaurant. Designed to serve both in-house guests and visitors, the restaurant complements the hotel’s accommodation and event offerings.
The hotel also features three banquet venues – Jewel, Crystal and Vatika; catering to weddings, celebrations, conferences, meetings and other gatherings. Among these, Vatika spans 26,500 sq. ft. and can accommodate up to 1,000 guests in a theatre-style configuration, while Jewel and Crystal provide additional options for smaller and mid-sized events.
