    I choose this hotel 7th time and really the stay was amazing. They always welcome guest as a family and the behaviour of the staff was also good as precious. Nice location near the golden temple within 1km area. Only 10 min walkable distance from the golden temple.

    Food from the hotel

    neha.family

    The food we ordered from the hotel was pathetic and they charged a lot for it. Also it wasn't cooked at there place, they had ordered it from outside. If that was the case, i would have done it by myself. At least won't have wasted that amount of money over their food.

    shantanu g.solo

    Was in Amritsar for a 2 days solo trip. Backpacker's best was absolutely value for money. Comfortable beds. The terrace is converted to a garden and peacefully. Happens to be the only smoking area in the hotel. The owners are very humble and helpful. The staff is responsive. Can't expect more for this.

    utsav d.loyalty-iconfamily

    The location of the hotel is in close proximity to Golden temple and just beside partition museum. Rooms were clean and tidy. Only drawback I found was noise coming from other near by room entering into room, may be hotel can work on improving its doors making noise proof

    Disturbance by other guests

    martha f.solo

    During the 2 nights I stayed, I wasn't able to sleep due to noise made by others guests. I went down to reception and staff member approached them a few times but with no avail. There were a group of 4 or 5 young men at past 2 am and the disturbance continued. I'm not sure if this is a common behaviour that is accepted in hotels. But that surely disturbs other guests. I felt helpless as staff was not able to handle the situation.
