Overview & History
The Oberoi Sukhvilas Spa Resort opened in 2016 on the edge of the Siswan Forest Reserve in New Chandigarh, on the developing Mullanpur side of the Chandigarh tricity. It is among the smaller properties in The Oberoi Group's Indian portfolio, with around 60 accommodations spread across rooms, villas and permanent luxury tents. The design draws on Mughal and Punjabi craft traditions, with hand-painted frescoes, jharokha-style screens and formal water gardens. Unlike the group's city hotels, Sukhvilas is positioned as a wellness and nature retreat rather than a business address.
The resort sits within a large protected forest tract in the Shivalik foothills, which gives it an unusually quiet, low-density setting for a property so close to a major city. It is built around a spa and slow-travel concept, and most guests come for multi-night wellness or leisure stays rather than overnight transit.
Location & Getting There
Sukhvilas is in Pallanpur, near Sialba Majri, with the postal address falling under S.A.S. Nagar (Mohali) district, Punjab, at PIN 140110. By road it is roughly 37 km from Chandigarh International Airport (IXC), a drive of about an hour depending on traffic through the tricity. Central Chandigarh, including Sector 17 and Sukhna Lake, is around 22 to 26 km away. There is no metro serving New Chandigarh, so private transfers, taxis and resort cars are the practical options. The resort arranges airport and railway-station pick-ups on request.
Rooms & Suites
Accommodation ranges from Premier Rooms through to standalone villas and tented suites. Premier Rooms offer garden or forest views with Mughal-inspired interiors and a private sit-out. The Royal Tents and Royal Forest Tents are permanent canvas structures with marble bathrooms; the forest tents add a private plunge pool. Luxury Villas come with a private heated pool, a separate living area and an outdoor courtyard. The Kohinoor Villa is the largest unit, with multiple bedrooms, its own pool and dedicated butler service. All categories include air-conditioning, premium linens and Oberoi's standard in-room technology.
Dining
Dining is intentionally compact for a resort of this size. Anant Mahal is the all-day restaurant, serving international dishes alongside a dedicated Ayurvedic and wellness menu designed to complement spa programmes. Kaanan focuses on Indian fine dining, with regional Punjabi and broader subcontinental cooking. The Raunaq Bar handles drinks and lounge service. In-room dining is available around the clock, and the kitchen can tailor menus for guests on specific wellness or dietary regimes.
Amenities & Facilities
The centrepiece is Asmi by Oberoi, a large spa offering Ayurvedic therapies, international treatments and wellness consultations. Facilities include a temperature-controlled outdoor pool, a fitness centre, and a yoga and meditation pavilion. The forest setting supports guided nature walks and forest-bathing sessions. Butler service, concierge support and free Wi-Fi run throughout the property, and there is a business centre for guests who need to work between treatments.
Meetings, Weddings & Events
While Sukhvilas is primarily a leisure resort, its landscaped gardens and event halls make it a sought-after venue for intimate destination weddings and private celebrations. The formal lawns and water gardens provide an outdoor setting, and indoor halls cover smaller banquets and conferences. The scale suits exclusive buyouts and boutique events rather than large convention business, and the resort's distance from the city helps keep gatherings private.
The Neighbourhood
The immediate surroundings are forest and the emerging township of New Chandigarh (Mullanpur), rather than an established commercial district. Within a short drive are the Siswan Dam and walking trails. The established attractions of Chandigarh — the Rock Garden, Sukhna Lake and the Sector 17 shopping plaza — are around 20 to 26 km away, making day trips into the city straightforward while keeping the resort itself secluded.
Who It's Best For
Sukhvilas is best suited to travellers seeking a spa-led or nature-focused stay within easy reach of the Chandigarh tricity and Delhi NCR. It works well for wellness retreats, romantic getaways and small high-end weddings, and for guests who value a forest setting over a downtown location. Business travellers needing proximity to Chandigarh's offices or the airport for quick turnarounds will find a city hotel more convenient.
