Food is widely appreciated, including generous breakfasts, though a few found it average or wished for bolder flavors. Several reviews mention dated bathrooms, maintenance or housekeeping lapses, and a mildewy AC smell, and some guests felt prices were high for the overall condition. Set expectations around room finish and transit times, and you will likely have a pleasant stay.

I have no hesitation in recommending this property for a lovely stay in Rishikesh. We only stayed overnight.A warm welcome, delightful view of Ganga, and staff looked after my senior citizen parents very will at breakfast time.Enough for gluten free breakfast.Once renovation work ( which we knew about in advance) is done it will be even better. Loved the private ghat.We didn't take up all their activities but they have a fair number on offer. Good amenities in room. Figuring out TV took some doing if not technology savvy.Simple instructions might help. Shower drainage fine as long as you don't spend too long in shower ! If you are from the UK, then this will seem ridiculously opulent compared to Travelodge/Premier Inn. I would stay here again.

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.

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.

Staying here is like being a part of an extended family inviting you to so many worthwhile experiences. Yoga and meditation classes in the mornings, Hindu service and tea at sunset. Large breakfast buffets with made to order breads in the morning. Spa services and private yoga instruction can be booked. Even partial view rooms have great view of the Ganges. One side of hotel looks over a wedding venue - if you want the pageantry and noise. Hotel is right on the walkway along the Ganges, close enough to town center without being in it. Highly Recommend for the food and experiences. The staff make you feel like family. It’s really nice.

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 😊

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

I have visited and stayed in quite a few hotels over the last 20 years in Rishikesh. I am pleased to report that Ganga Kinare (GK) is the best hotel experience I have had in Rishikesh. What I liked bigtime: Super friendly and efficient check in Modern, renovated and very clean rooms where everything works and the AC was perfect Amenities are as advertised and are of good quality and chosen with care Service is five star. Everybody is focused on customer service and they deliver with a smile Room service is fast, high quality and the menu covers lots of cuisines and choices, all well done I have a riverside room on 2nd floor. The view is spectacular, windows are clean and huge Soundproofing that works. These rooms are soundproofed, and it makes a huge difference The balcony for dining is wonderful, they have heaters, great service (RAM was awesome) just great. The front desk provides answers, converts currency/provides smaller bills and cannot do enough to make the stay special. The front desk is just five stars and the best I have experienced The grounds are beautiful, peaceful and manicured. Secured access to the river is easy to use Walking the river front and enjoying the sights, sounds and evening ceremonies is wonderful and safe Transport (Tuk Tuk) is available right out front, the neighborhood is fun to walk and people watch Quite frankly there is nothing I can list that is a “don’t like”. Everything was great, five stars and I highly suggest staying here!

The room tariff is too overpriced for the features. Bathroom was very outdated and inconvenient. A shower outside the tub is necessary .. the set up was very risky .. It is definitely not worth the money they charged for the lotus retreat room. The view of the ganges from the balcony was awesome. Vikas working in the restaurant did a phenomenal service. He is worth mentioning.

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 hotel was very noisy The restaurant had good food bu The staff was very variable The doa treatments were rudimentary given all the Ayurveda in India The location was far from the main beautiful sites in Rishikesh and not in a walkable area

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.

Staying here is like being a part of an extended family inviting you to so many worthwhile experiences. Yoga and meditation classes in the mornings, Hindu service and tea at sunset. Large breakfast buffets with made to order breads in the morning. Spa services and private yoga instruction can be booked. Even partial view rooms have great view of the Ganges. One side of hotel looks over a wedding venue - if you want the pageantry and noise. Hotel is right on the walkway along the Ganges, close enough to town center without being in it. Highly Recommend for the food and experiences. The staff make you feel like family. It’s really nice.

I have stayed here before. This time I was not very satisfied with the service specially in the restaurant. Food was average. Did not like the attitude of some waiters. Ganga Kinare was my favorite place to stay. I have to rethink next. Rooms speacially bathrooms need some makeover.

I have visited and stayed in quite a few hotels over the last 20 years in Rishikesh. I am pleased to report that Ganga Kinare (GK) is the best hotel experience I have had in Rishikesh. What I liked bigtime: Super friendly and efficient check in Modern, renovated and very clean rooms where everything works and the AC was perfect Amenities are as advertised and are of good quality and chosen with care Service is five star. Everybody is focused on customer service and they deliver with a smile Room service is fast, high quality and the menu covers lots of cuisines and choices, all well done I have a riverside room on 2nd floor. The view is spectacular, windows are clean and huge Soundproofing that works. These rooms are soundproofed, and it makes a huge difference The balcony for dining is wonderful, they have heaters, great service (RAM was awesome) just great. The front desk provides answers, converts currency/provides smaller bills and cannot do enough to make the stay special. The front desk is just five stars and the best I have experienced The grounds are beautiful, peaceful and manicured. Secured access to the river is easy to use Walking the river front and enjoying the sights, sounds and evening ceremonies is wonderful and safe Transport (Tuk Tuk) is available right out front, the neighborhood is fun to walk and people watch Quite frankly there is nothing I can list that is a “don’t like”. Everything was great, five stars and I highly suggest staying here!

Location
Riverside setting with direct Ganga access and scenic walkway is a clear highlight for most guests. It sits a fair distance from Tapovan/Laxman Jhula, and a couple of reviews found trips there or late-night walks less comfortable.

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.

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.

One of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had. We booked their most expensive suite — supposedly their best — and it was a letdown from the moment we walked in. The fridge was broken. The room was missing basic amenities you’d expect at this price point. Tea was served only when we asked for it, and the cookies that came with it were stale. The restaurant was somehow worse — you place an order and the waiter simply disappears. Not once, not twice, but repeatedly. We’d sit there waiting for someone to come back and acknowledge us. The property is nothing like the photos. Inside it feels dated and cheap, and it’s not nearly as clean as the listing suggests. For what they charge, this is unacceptable. There are far better options in Rishikesh. Avoid.

Location is beautiful and serene . All the staff are super helpful. Food was good . Spa was excellent.my two small issues are : there is a nice path behind the hotel and u can walk to Triveni ghat and actually all over Rishikesh avoiding the terrible traffic but hotel staff didn’t tel us and I only going it on my last day . I think hotel staff should do a 10 min session and advice about local paths to avoid the complete congested roads .The yoga sessions were very good but only 1 session a day I think they shd be more . If u want a peaceful retreat away from the frantic Tapovan this is best place to stay . However if u wish to stay in Tapovan then the roads leading are very congested and u shd look for somewhere else . I stayed with my family and would certainly come back to stay
