Nestled amidst the majestic Himalayan ranges, 4 Factors by Sheraton boasts a near-perfect location with breathtaking views of snow-capped peaks from its rooms and Skyview restaurant. This newly inaugurated Marriott 4-star property, launched in April 2024, options 47 well-appointed rooms, providing a mix of consolation and scenic magnificence.
Reserving
Primary room price together with tax, begins at 10K INR (or) ~15K factors per night time. I booked 2 Rooms 1N for a household of two Adults+2 Youngsters, utilizing a complete 30K Marriott Bonvoy factors.
Examine-in
Wet climate welcomed us, as we reached the resort in night with mild drizzling. Examine-in formalities took ~quarter-hour & a neighborhood welcome drink Kahwa was served. Upon asking to examine for complimentary breakfast, it was promptly confirmed by the reception government.
Word: If booked a Marriott property on Factors, its at all times higher to examine/request for Complimentary Breakfast throughout Examine-in. Guidelines differ amongst numerous Marriott properties on this.
The Room
Room sizes are small with balcony & reserving isn’t allowed for greater than 2 folks. It’s possible you’ll attempt requesting so as to add a baby, submit reserving.

View of snow capped mountains from the room is outstanding. Fortunately 1 Room was upgraded to a spacious Junior suite, however with out balcony.

The Meals


Breakfast is served at third ground Skyview restaurant. Meals unfold is proscribed & nothing to boast of. Style was good although.
Upon asking for enlargement plans (if any), I used to be instructed that Barista is prone to be inaugurated quickly in resort garden space.
Hospitality
Housekeeping & different companies took extra time than anticipated. Frequent employees actions have been seen in close by vacant rooms, thereby limiting privateness.
Sightseeing
- Principal highway: 400 m
- Market: 800 m
- Thajiwas Glacier: 8 Km
- Zero Level: 28 Km
Word: Horse for the gorgeous Thajiwas glacier can be found from the Resort additionally, however probably overpriced. Zero level is the primary place in Sonmarg to expertise season’s snowfall. Each Thajiwas & Zero level are prime Sonmarg vacationer sights.
Greatest season to go to:
Sonmarg is likely one of the stunning locations in Kashmir to go to any time of the yr. To expertise Snowfall, mid December to february is right time, although chances are you’ll probably expertise Snowfall in March as nicely.
In the event you’re searching for greenery, then chances are you’ll go to throughout Might-June; July-Aug sees some rainfall, and from October Autumn season begins.
Bottomline
General, in comparison with different Marriott 4-star properties like Fairfield, my expertise at 4 Factors by Sheraton Sonmarg felt underwhelming.
Other than its excellent location, different points fell beneath the standard phase requirements. That mentioned, since most vacationers will probably spend their time exploring the pure fantastic thing about Sonmarg, it’s nonetheless an honest choice, particularly when booked utilizing Factors.
It’s price noting that the close by Radisson Sonamarg seems to supply a extra polished expertise, catering to these searching for larger requirements.
