Reviews and Ratings
This hotel is a true gem situated right by the banks of the Ganges, providing a serene and picturesque setting. The rooms are cozy with a queen bed and offer wonderful balcony views overlooking the river. The service is top-notch with the manager and staff going above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. Although the dining options are limited to delicious sandwiches, the overall experience is pleasant, making it a great value for money choice.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms, with beautiful views of the Gang river. However, cleanliness in the bathrooms could be improved. The location is right on the river front, making it convenient to reach landmarks in the old town, such as the Palace on Step and Dwevedi steps on palace. The dining experience includes shabu shabu, and the facilities are adequate for a pleasant stay.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with comfortable rooms and a great balcony view overlooking the Ganga. The cleanliness, especially in the bathrooms, could use some improvement, but the queen bed was cozy. The location right on the banks of the Ganga River was stunning, but there were minor issues with the dining experience. Overall, it was worth the money.
