    I had a great time during my weekend stay. the view from the room was amazing! Another thing I liked was the friendly staff who were always ready to help us with anything. the location was perfect–it was close to everywhere, easy to access and very convenient.

    It was impossible to stand there without feeling uncomfortable. However, this negative point was minor in comparison to all the great things about the hotel.

    This hotel is in an amazing location, close to all the must-see sights and attractions. I loved waking up to the stunning view every morning! The leisure facilities were great - I especially enjoyed the yoga. The room was comfortable and the breakfast was delicious.

    The noise level from the nearby street was a bit disruptive at times.

    The location of this hotel is perfect, offering an amazing view of the river Ganges, especially from their Cafe. The sitting arrangement and menu at the Cafe are just perfect. Additionally, the hotel hosts daily interactive activities, allowing guests to meet new people and enjoy the view. The staff went above-and-beyond in providing assistance whenever needed.

    The rooms at this hotel are on the smaller side, especially for four people. However, they were clean enough for our stay.

    As someone who likes to travel and enjoy a comfortable stay, I have to say that the hotel facilities were top-notch. From the swimming pool to the live music and bonfire in the evenings, there was so much to do and enjoy. And the location! Right next to the famous hill turn rapid, this hotel is situated in a prime spot that offers breathtaking views. I also have to commend the staff for their exceptional hospitality. They were so accommodating and always made us feel at home.

    Can honestly say there wasn't anything not to like.

    The complimentary live music event during Thanksgiving week was enjoyable, and the café's fresh food was tasty and affordable. the hostel's location provided an excellent view of the river.

    There were issues with the power supply in our room, causing us to be cautious when utilizing the only socket. our bed mattresses were uncomfortable and lumpy, causing pain in the morning.

The value for money was excellent, with reasonable prices for the deluxe rooms on the 2nd floor. The staff was incredibly helpful and attentive, especially the manager Rakesh who went above and beyond to assist with any needs.
