Wonderful Stay at Yog Niketan
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Yog Niketan and would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Rishikesh.

From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel welcome. The staff greeted us warmly and treated us to a delicious fruit punch, which was a lovely touch after our journey.

Our room was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. The bathroom was equally impressive, being large, modern, and impeccably clean. We opted for a Ganga river view room, and it truly made our stay special. Waking up each morning, opening the curtains, and seeing the Ganges flowing by was a beautiful and peaceful experience that we will always remember.

The food was another highlight of our stay. Both the evening coffee service and the breakfast buffet were abundant, with plenty of delicious options to choose from.

What made the biggest impression, however, was the exceptional hospitality. Every member of the staff was genuinely kind, attentive, and helpful, always going out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed.

Yog Niketan offers the perfect combination of comfort, cleanliness, stunning views, great food, and outstanding service. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to return.

Yog Niketan by Sanskriti: Where Exceptional People Make the Difference

If there is one thing that sets Yog Niketan by Sanskriti apart, it is this: Yog Niketan by Sanskriti is not simply about its mesmerising surroundings or delicious food; it is about the extraordinary people who bring its hospitality to life.

From the moment we interacted with the girls at reception, we were welcomed by their lovely smiles, warmth and genuine willingness to help. As the delicate perfume wafted around us, we were made to feel valued and truly welcome.

A special mention goes to Ananya, Rohit, Baby, Enochi and Neeraj, who went above and beyond to ensure that we enjoyed our delicious meals. Their dedication was remarkable. They would simply not take no for an answer when it came to serving us, doing their very best to ensure that everything reached us as quickly as possible. Knowing that we had a long journey ahead, they even thoughtfully packed extra food for us upon request. Such gestures may seem small, but they speak volumes about the care and consideration that define true hospitality.

However, what impressed us most were the morning yoga classes, led by the experienced Aparna together with Ashish, who energised us before breakfast. The breakfast area was right next to the yoga room—how convenient!

The hotel’s view over the Ganga River is out of this world. The spiritual connection touches the heart so profoundly. Leaving the hotel was shattering. We will definitely come back!

Cons:

All good!
