Housekeeping-excellent thanks to Sandeep Chawla—
Kusum doing an amazing job, This was my second stay. I will definitely go back. Great drivers, if you need to go to see local places and the staff are all very helpful.
Superb experience with Lotus Suite.
They have private access to River Ganga which makes the experience very blissful.
Food in the restaurant is also very good.
Staff is very friendly.

All staff very polite and friendly. Food was very good. Rooms were clean however air conditioning needs major work; it smelled mildewy. Exterior of building could use cleaning and painting.
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.
A niche hotel with a great location and rooms Great service from all staff. Beautiful Ganga temple in the grounds where we attended aartis in the morning. Private ghat enabled is to take blessings without the crowds.
Excellent location; very nice views. They encouraged us to go to vaar restaurant, 5 minutes away by walk in the nighttime. When we were returning at about 10 pm lical people accosted us. We had to run to the hotel. Better security would be helpful or should not encourage us to go out at nighttime.
Lovely place to stay. The staff here were very friendly and organised a couple of trips for us. If you like beautiful, calm, natural environments, I would highly recommend the day trip to their sister hotel, Oneness. The food was excellent, probably one of the best dinner buffets I’ve ever had in a hotel. The hotel is situated right next to the Ganges with beautiful views.
Only downside is the hotel is located a long way from the more “backpacker” areas of Tapovan and Laxman Jhula, and the journey up there is not very pleasant as Rishikesh is quite hectic and polluted.
Everyone was so friendly and helpful.
I didn’t come for dinner one night and someone called me to check on me.

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 😊

Good stay
A good stay at this hotel specially after a few days at an Ashram, so good to feel some comfort. The staff are excellent and very attentive, excellent SPA. However the hotel clearly feels a need for serious maintenance in terms of paint and therefore i felt that what we paid was over priced specially as it was a same price in a 5 star hotel in Delhi Aerocity which was truly of a much higher standard than this hotel. Nevertheless enjoyed the break. Thank You
Rooms, toilet and shower need a hell lot of upgrade. They looked very dated, barely 1-2 stars worth. Smelly toilets and no towels in our room. AC remote had no batteries.
Staff was polite and helpful, service was prompt. Food was okay.

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.

I stayed for two nights at Ganga Kinare before joining a yoga and meditation retreat. The property has a beautiful location and lovely views of the Ganges, which is definitely its biggest highlight. The food was decent and most of the staff were polite and helpful.
However, overall the experience felt quite mediocre and did not match a 4- or 5-star standard. The front desk felt very transactional, especially when it came to arranging taxis and services, which often felt overpriced. As someone who has stayed in many luxury hotels, the overall experience didn’t feel truly premium.
A pleasant stay for the views and location, but not a luxury hotel experience.
