It's like a tree cabin in a hill of Rishikesh
Pros:

I've stayed twice the first time I had a nice room with views of the river, the second time they gave me a bigger room with private balcony a nice bathroom and a day bed. I believe this is a suite. The staff are very helpful. Vinod made sure I had everything I needed from the booking to the day I left. When I left they started remodeling, I can't wait to see what they do with the place.

Cons:

The stairs hahaha but by day 6 you get used to it.

Wrócimy tu z pewnością !
Pros:

Hotel bardzo godny polecenia. Pokoje czyste, przestronne, ogromne wygodne łóżka, świeża i bardzo przyjemna pościel. Czuliśmy się komfortowo i bezpiecznie.W pokoju spory taras z widokiem na zieleń. Hotel jest cofnięty od głównych ulic, co zapewnia ciszę i spokój. Jednocześnie bardzo łatwo można dotrzeć do wszystkich głównych atrakcji. Minuta spacerem od hotelu jest restauracja Nirvana z przeeepysznym jedzeniem :) Obsługa hotelu doskonała !!! Ludzie, którym zależy, by to miejsce miało dobrą renomę, dodatkowo niezmiernie serdeczni i otwarci. Veer jesteś duszą tego miejsca :) Bardzo za wszystko dziękujemy i pozdrawiamy serdecznie z mroźnej Polski :))

Spatious and very authentic place with very nice staff
Pros:

The location is just perfect! It is in a quiet part of the Tapovan neighbourhood which is very vibrant. We rented a scooter from the hotel which helped a lot moving around, but it is also walkable distance to many places. The room was very bright, spacious, and with lovely views. They offer really cool yoga classes with a view of the Ganges river and there is also an amazing terrace with views.

Pros:

Besonders gut war der Yogalehrer. Und ein sehr schönen Yoga Platz mit der aufgehenden Sonne und die Sicht über das Gangatal.

Cons:

Das Hotelpersonal hat meine Daten an Dritte rausgegeben. Jemand der nach mir fragte, bestätigt, dass ich in diesem Hotel bin.
Ein Now Go in Deutschland.

Direktes Umfeld sieht aus wie eine Ruine oder Müllplatz. Leider verbrennen die Menschen hier ihren Müll und direkt neben ihrem Haus.

All in all it was good.
Pros:

The hotel in general.
The view from the top floors-

Cons:

The works/drilling during the day - they were renovating some parts of the hotel.
I had to stay in door because of a bad cold, so the noise was prretty disturbing.
