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.

Welcome drink and thr way they welcomes and sent us away was heart warming.

Very nice location and hotel
Pros:

Staff were really nice especially receptionist staff. Kanchan was very helpful at giving advice and we particularly liked the care that was put into managing our concerns.
The gulab collection was an interesting touch with ganges water to take away. Very well thought out. Loving move by the owners. I took the dip in the sister hotel and thought it was very private and the security staff was attentive to ensure safety. Beautiful location for the dip too. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

Cons:

There was slight heat in the kitchen staff between themselves, which was difficult to ignore during breakfast.
