Great houseboat experience in srinagar. One of the simplest houseboats from outside but super nice inside. Host is also super nice. Really enjoyed the stay and shikara ride.

Booked for my parents for 2 days before their trip to amarnath. Beautiful place and very helpful and friendly staff. Breakfast was also good. And the host was very warm and respectful. He helped them around and booked the shikara ride as well. Overall my parents had a great time and were very happy with the houseboat experience.

Clinliness of washroom and room is good. You have to take your bath in the bathtub only. Rooms and bed are average

I recently had the pleasure of staying on a houseboat in Srinagar, and it was an unforgettable experience. Here’s a detailed review of my stay: **Location: ★★★★★ (5/5)** The houseboat is moored on the serene Dal Lake, providing breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and the tranquil waters. The location is perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse themselves in nature's beauty. Waking up to the sunrise over the lake is truly magical. **Ambiance and Decor: ★★★★☆ (4/5)** The houseboat itself is beautifully crafted with traditional Kashmiri woodwork and intricate carvings, exuding a rich cultural heritage. The decor inside the boat is elegant, with comfortable furniture and cozy nooks to relax and enjoy the view. The only downside was that some areas showed signs of aging and could use a bit of maintenance. **Service: ★★★★☆ (4/5)** The service was warm and hospitable, with the staff going out of their way to make our stay comfortable. They were attentive and responsive to our needs, whether it was arranging a shikara ride, providing local travel tips, or serving delicious meals. However, there were occasional delays in service, likely due to the unique setting. **Amenities: ★★★☆☆ (3/5)** Given the unique nature of a houseboat, the amenities are more basic compared to a traditional hotel. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, but the bathroom facilities could be improved for a more comfortable experience. **Food: ★★★★★ (5/5)** The food was one of the highlights of our stay. We enjoyed authentic Kashmiri cuisine prepared fresh daily. The flavors were rich and the portions generous. Dining on the deck with a view of the lake made each meal special. Special dietary requests were also accommodated with care. **Activities: ★★★★☆ (4/5)** The houseboat stay included opportunities for various activities such as shikara rides, which were a delightful way to explore the lake and its floating gardens. We also enjoyed visiting nearby Mughal gardens and taking a day trip to Gulmarg. However, entertainment options on the boat itself were limited. **Overall Experience: ★★★★☆ (4/5)** Staying on a houseboat in Srinagar is a unique and memorable experience that offers a peaceful retreat amidst stunning natural beauty. While there are some areas that could benefit from improvement, the overall charm, hospitality, and cultural immersion make it a worthwhile stay. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and relaxing getaway in kashmir

Good

I found this houseboat through make my trip. I emphasized on specially on the location of the houseboat rather the reviews and it totally worth the searching. The houseboat is beautifully located in the middle of the lake and just 3 minute boat ride from ghat no. 9. The manager faiz bhai took great care of us and the meal was fantastic. Overall 9 on 10 ratings.

Though location is not just front of boulevard but quite scenic. Ammenities are really awesome. Foods are quite delicious.

Fantastic ambience with great hospitality with all necessary amenities. Caretaker was very helpful throughout the stay.

Room bit airy, safe and adequate space in balcony. Fantastic ambience and polite behaviour of caretaker.

The boat owner has taken 500 for breakfast which was 4 aloo pratha with tea and he asked for a tip more than 100 rs. Don't know how he got good ratings please don't prefer to visit.

I booked this property for one night, unfortunately i can't reach that particular date but the staff are good. They extend my booking for next day which was a good gesture. Normaly you can't get this facility anywhere. Really appreciate this management.

Average place. Don't have there own shikara. Other house boat have it. Very grid y people charge 400 for room warming. Previous they told 200. Don't have electric blanket
