About Banquet
The Banquet Space
The Banquet at Green Palms Rubystone Exotic is an indoor event venue set within a boutique hill property in Deriya Khal, Lansdowne, Uttarakhand. Lansdowne is a quiet cantonment hill station in the Pauri Garhwal district, sitting at roughly 1,706 metres above sea level, and the property draws on this serene, forested setting to offer an event space that feels genuinely removed from the pace of city life. The banquet hall is designed to serve intimate to mid-sized gatherings, making it a natural choice for guests who want a mountain backdrop without the crowds or logistical complexity of a larger resort destination.
The interior carries the warm, welcoming character that defines the broader Rubystone Exotic property — a blend of traditional hill-hospitality sensibility with comfortable, well-maintained interiors suited to both celebratory and formal occasions. Natural light, clean lines, and a contained footprint give the room a versatility that works equally well dressed up for a wedding reception or configured for a structured corporate gathering.
Events & Occasions
The Banquet at Green Palms Rubystone Exotic suits a range of events, including wedding receptions, engagement ceremonies, birthday celebrations, family get-togethers, corporate retreats, and small conferences. Lansdowne's relative seclusion from major urban centres makes the property especially popular for destination events where the atmosphere itself is part of the draw — guests travel for the experience of the Garhwal hills, and the banquet hall provides a comfortable, sheltered space to anchor that experience.
For wedding groups in particular, having an in-house banquet facility means that pre-wedding rituals, the main reception, and post-ceremony meals can all be managed within one property, reducing the coordination burden on families and planners. Corporate groups value the combination of a focused, distraction-free environment in the hills with a formal indoor space that can accommodate presentations, team sessions, or formal dinners.
The hotel's on-site accommodation allows event guests to stay on the property, which is a meaningful advantage for multi-day celebrations or residential corporate workshops — guests do not need to arrange separate transport to and from the venue after the event concludes.
Location & Accessibility
Deriya Khal is a locality on the outskirts of Lansdowne town, set among dense oak and rhododendron forests that define the Garhwal landscape. Lansdowne is connected by road to Kotdwar, the nearest railhead, which lies approximately 40 kilometres away and links to Delhi and other major cities via the Kotdwar–Delhi rail route. Visitors travelling by road from Delhi typically cover the distance in around five to six hours depending on the route taken via Kotdwar or Najibabad. The nearest commercial airport is Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun, roughly 150 kilometres from Lansdowne.
This relative distance from major cities is, for many event planners, a deliberate feature rather than a drawback — it creates the conditions for a truly immersive, destination-style event in a setting that remains unhurried and uncrowded throughout the year.
