Pune Resort Perfect for Getaways, Weddings, and Weekend Bliss
Where the City Slows Down and Style Takes Over
There’s something quietly magnetic about Pune. Once the cultural capital of Maharashtra and now one of India’s most vibrant urban escapes, the city is a perfect blend of heritage, art, and modern ease. Drive just a little away from its bustling streets, and you’ll find yourself surrounded by rolling hills, lush vineyards, and the calm rhythm of nature. It’s here that Hotel Irada creates its own sanctuary—a Pune resort that redefines what it means to unwind, celebrate, and connect.
A Local Lens on Pune’s Spirit
To understand what makes Pune so effortlessly charming, we spoke to Anvi Kulkarni, a local interior designer and weekend explorer. For her, Pune is a city that holds a pulse of balance. “You can brunch at a European-style cafe in Koregaon Park, spend an afternoon in the forests near Mulshi, and still make it back in time for an art show in Camp,” she says. “That’s the beauty of this city—you never have to choose between culture and calm.”
Her words echo the ethos of Hotel Irada, a place where urban sophistication meets serene design. From its architecture—crafted in warm stone and sleek glass—to its soulful approach to hospitality, Irada is where Pune’s energy softens into stillness.

Just an hour from the hotel, Lavasa offers a European-inspired waterfront surrounded by lush green valleys. Perfect for morning walks, kayaking, or just a peaceful drive, it’s one of the most photogenic escapes near Pune. Don’t miss the pastel-colored promenades that come alive during golden hour.

Living Like a Local
What makes Pune truly magnetic isn’t just its landscapes—it’s the people and their warmth. You’ll find laughter spilling from roadside chai stalls, evening prayers echoing from centuries-old temples, and art collectives reimagining Indian design. It’s this mix of heritage and innovation that makes a stay at Hotel Irada feel perfectly placed.
As Anvi puts it, “Pune never rushes you. It just invites you to stay a little longer.”
