Beautiful location. Serene view. Very polite and helpful staff. I had issue with charging my Apple Macbook with American electric connection. They helped by providing an extension chord. I would request that they upgrade their electric outlets to support this smoothly.

When we were trying to decide where to stay in Rishikesh we looked at Ganga Kinare and Aloha on the other side of town. As first timers we didn't know much about the layout of the town and picked Ganga based on the fact we'd have access to the boardwalk along the Ganges. It was great for a stroll for sure! So many Ashrams along the waters edge. We did take a look at Aloha while we were in town and it was a beautiful property with a beautiful vista. Really stunning, but very windy. Ganga as a property didn't compare. It was much smaller and a bit 'tired'. But it did have access to the Ganges within a few steps from the hotel rather than a long walk down a hill from the Aloha. Our room was large and had been updated some time ago. Shower was beautiful and hot and bed was comfy. The people really made the place. Just lovely and personable. They couldn't have been more helpful. Yoga at 730am each day on the top floor was also a super special treat as the room had floor to ceiling windows and offered a magnificent view of the Ganga and mountains. Just gorgeous at sunrise. The food on the buffet was Indian but adapted for westerners so it wasn't spicy enough for us - again - as soon as the staff found out they were happy to help out and make us happy. There was an Aarti ceremony at 6pm each night on the Ganges and we took part of it and it was small, intimate and special. Highly recommended after the huge Aarti in town and in Haridwar.

The property needs updating as we had been in Jan 2024 it remains the same- on the last day the toilet kept blocking plus the smell in the room was not very nice. We had a partial river view room which was really lovely. So there are positives and negatives despite this l really like the hotel. I especially like the resident pundit who does amazing pooja in the morning and evening which is beautiful. The staff are very nice 😊

Hotel was Ok food was Ok Worst part is that they have a tour guide operating out of their hotel robbing you charging you a daily rate for him and the hotel taxi and using the taxi to do his business have you waiting on him while he do whatever he has to do. On top of that adding charges to the hotels taxi to make money, every store we go to he’s going back for tips off of the stuff I bought. Desperate much! When I ask to go anywhere he’s saying where to go and when to go. Went to take a bathe in the Ganga and said we have 10 mins then after we had to wait on him to have coffee before heading to a puja Definitely worst! I even left the hotel 2 Days before because of him. Warning y’all don’t Go here and use RAJ as your tour guide. Stay at hotel fine! Yes
