Reviews and Ratings
My stay at this hotel was an exceptional experience! Nestled away from the hustle and bustle, it offered a serene escape with stunning views of the Ganges. The welcoming and attentive staff made sure all my needs were met, enhancing the overall experience. The only drawback was the Wi-Fi connectivity, which was inconsistent. However, this didn’t deter from the peacefulness and beauty surrounding the hotel.
My stay at Ganga Kinare was absolutely wonderful, with a serene location right on the banks of the Ganges. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcomed, and I truly appreciated the yoga classes offered. However, the dining options were somewhat average, which could use some improvement. Overall, I felt it was a fantastic value for the experience provided.
My stay at this boutique hotel was truly memorable. The serene location, quaint gardens, and a private Ghat by the Ganges make it a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of Rishikesh. The rooms were modern and comfortable, although a bit on the smaller side for the price. The food was freshly prepared and quite enjoyable, but there could've been a bit more variety in the menu. Overall, it’s a fantastic experience, but the tariff might be considered on the higher end for what you get.
I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel, ideally situated right on the banks of the Ganges. The highlight was definitely the warm welcome and attentive service from the staff. The rooms had a charming, rustic decor, although they felt a bit old-fashioned and could use some updates. While the food was decent, it could definitely be improved. Overall, this hotel offers a serene experience, especially with the private Ghat and evening Aarti, but it might be a bit pricey compared to other options in town.
Staying at Ganga Kinare was truly an unforgettable experience. I was captivated by the serene views of the Ganga on one side and the majestic mountains on the other. The spacious rooms provided a perfect escape, although I faced some hot water issues. The location is peaceful yet close enough to the heart of Rishikesh, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. The vegetarian meals were delicious, but I felt that the spa service could be improved. Overall, it was a memorable stay with some minor hiccups.
