Everything was top notch, especially the food, bedding, hospitality and amenities!
Pros:

Best value in Rishikesh for a luxury experience! The restaurant is the best meal I have had in all of India and features temple foods from all over the country. Sattvic preparation of food is incredible and healthy. We loved the private ghat and ganga arati at the sister property across the street. Fantastic hospitality and experience overall.

Our stay was just for one night, so the discomforts were easy to endure. Price good, food better!
Pros:

Food was delicious

Cons:

The bed felt very cheap and was uncomfortable. Lots of big springs, bouncy, and not much padding.

Pros:

Very comfortable room, super clean and modern. Very helpful staff. It's better than in the photos. Also, sound isolation is good, no noise from the street and excellent WiFi connection.

Cons:

It's not worth ordering the food. For me the dinner starting at 8pm was way too late and the breakfast was not very good, meaning serving not "breakfast" food like soups.

Uma opção razoável para Rishikesh
Pros:

O Hotel tem boas condições, as suas instalações são modernas. A localização é bastante distante do centro de Rishikesh, apesar de estar próximo do Rio Ganges.

Cons:

Os quartos onde ficamos instalados tinha um barulho permanente de canalização do ar condicionado que tornou as noites insuportáveis. Os funcionários foram muito simpáticos e mudaram-nos o quarto, mas o problema manteve-se. O pequeno almoço pode ser muito melhorado.

Outstanding Hotel & Services 🙏🏽🙌🏽
Pros:

From the amazing warm welcome on checking, being created by garland and blessings and throughout the entire 4 days stay the service the warmth did not stop.
I have to specially thank Vidhya who always greeted me with a smile and asked about my outing, she went out of her way to help me with rickshaw on my first day when I was so anxious to step out alone.
The whole front staff team were always welcoming and friendly.

Food at Varr
Food is genuinely soul healing and authentic. I had Thali and everything thing was explained to me which made the experience that much more amazing. I don't have a huge appetite so was worried about wastage but they serve you the amount you want which was perfect from me. There was sooooo much food variety.
I had breakfast included in my rate and there was buffet, limited items but it was more than enough to enjoy for me. You must try the Ragi Dosa which is included in breakfast but order separately. The Masala Idli was so tasty.
I had the pleasure of meeting Chef Veer and he gave me great advice of visiting Virbadhra Mahadev Mandir not far from hotel. It was a pleasure speaking to him and I appreciated he took the time out to speak to me.
The restaurant staff were always welcoming and attentive.

Hotel
I had a superior double room with balcony on 1st floor. The room was great for a solo traveller and probably for a couple too. Bathroom was perfect for western needs and well replenished. Clean and comfortable bed and pillows. I was accommodated with iron and board at no cost and it arrived promptly after requesting.

For me addition of having a Mandir few rooms down was just amazing as I'm Radha Krsna Bhakt. I even was blessed to do Aarti one morning there. I had a pleasant conversation with Acharaya Rahul Bhatt who was doing Aarti.

When ever I needed water or bathroom replenished the team were prompt and very accommodating. Calling reception was easy and informative every time.

Cons:

Hot water was an issue. It was always lukewarm or on the cool side. Thankfully it was warm so it was ok.
