When we reached the hotel, it looked like a normal 3 star property, but then the good things started to pour in! First was an early check-in and I am talking about good 4 hrs here! The reception staff was excellent. The room provided (premier river view) was really big with 2 queen beds, perfect for us, a family with 2 kids.
The food was ok but the service was superb, especially the restro manager. They serve vegetarian food only due to religious significance of the place but there are many good restros nearby which serve non-veg.
Now the best part comes which is its location. Just take the stairs on the opposite side of road down to the walkers track (Asthapath) in the morning and you will be having best views of Ganga! The 360 degree view from the top is good too but not very comfortable for the kids.
The housekeeping, bathroom amenities were all good, nothing to complain! The bathroom was spacious. The interiors of the hotel have also been done tastefully.
Pick this property for Rishikesh, you will be pleasantly surprised!
