The hotel has nice accomodation. It's clean. Morning breakfast is also good. However this hotel is not good for tourists with self drive cars. The main locations like ram jhula etc are quite congested and you need to take public transport. Not very convenient.

Holy Water rocks!
We enjoyed this hotel the most on our entire 5 week trip to India. From the time we arrived we felt welcome. We loved the spiritual atmosphere very much. The restaurant staff were just as great. As westerners, we just can’t handle the spiciness of Indian cuisine, and the staff was very accommodating. They remembered to make sure we had food at every meal that was delicious. We enjoyed the Aarti at the main hotel as well, but liked the atmosphere of Holy Water better. We can’t say enough good things about the hotel.

Staff attentive once we got there . However, was little concerned about the hotel sending emails repeatedly to pay before we got there and send the id on line . I was not looking for any additional stress from the hotel and threat of cancellation if I didn’t respond. Thank you

A highlight of Rishikesh
Second stay at this property. Returned because this hotel is one of a kind. Host Kanchan treats guests like family, like royalty. The accommodations are quite comfortable and well appointed. Restaurant is top notch. Spa at sister property Ganga Kinare was a highlight of my visit to Rishikesh. Rahul is a master at his art. Looking forward to returning many more times to come.

The Varr restaurant with temple food was beautifully laid out, the food was amazing. Rooms are very nice. Staff also very friendly. The area is not the best but it has the benefit of being the sister to Hotel Ganga Kinare, with access to a private Ghaat plus other amenities (spa, restaurant, bicycles, etc) and access to the walkway along the Ganga.

Evening prior to my checkin, I got a call from Hotel that listing on Expedia is really old and hotel does not sell rooms through Expedia. Also, that there are no rooms available in this hotel so this booking cannot be fulfilled. I tried to call Expedia 3 times.. same day 6 pm, next day (day of check in) 9 am and 11 am. But people at Expedia would not pick any customer call only. Eventually I had to book hotel offline after landing in Rishikesh. Really poor experience with Expedia. Fake listings they are living with.
