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

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.

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.

Above Expectations!!!
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!

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
