Houseboat New Golden Flower

I took my family to kashmir in october and spent a night in the house boat. The house is in the nigeene lake, which is smaller than dal lake but less crowded. After coming arriving at the srinagar airport we went to the house boat aroud 3 pm. The owner of the boat arranged a motorised shikara for us and asked us to get ready by 4:30 pm for the ride. We had some biscuits and qawa in the house boat and boat arrived well before the time. We started the ride around 5 and reached back around 7. We covered all the important spot in the dal lake and did some shopping in the floating market. As it gets really cold in the evening i would suggest to carry winter clothing. In the night we had asked for non vegetarian food. Again on time the dinner was prepared and given to us at the table. It was homely food with chicken curry, rotis and some vegetarian dishes. Morning we woke up late around 9 and had a simple breakfast. We enjoyed the stay here. As most of them would take house boat for a day, this house boat is a good choice. It has good rooms, warmly staff, good food and a nice location.

The stay was good, the owner family are very nice and welcoming the customer. You will take boat at port to reach for the boathouse. Very special experience. Overstay is quote good, the view is also amazing. The only thing is that there is no hairdryer and hot water is available in the limited timing (maybe only summer. And since it’s a boathouse you may heard the movement from next door easily. But the overall experience is quite unique and good. We had tea time with owner family. It will be difficult to get food outside, but host can prepare dinner and breakfast with extra charge. The food is also quite good. The shopper will also come in boathouse to sell the staff, special shopping experience. From sunset to night, the view beside the lake is also awesome. Overall it’s a good experience.

This place is good we stayed there for 1 night. They served very nice dinner. What we did not like was there was no hot water. N breakfast was not good at all. They need to improve breakfast quality.

Very peaceful location and beautiful view. Hospitality is top notch ! and food was also homemade and delicious. Would definitely recommend if you want to have an experience of houseboat !
