Spectacularly situated on the banks of the Ganges, 23km (14 miles) north of Rishikesh, this former garden retreat of the Maharajahs of Tehri Garhwal is thrillingly close to the sacred river; there's even a little "beach" where you can swim in the clean, refreshing waters. Accommodations are divided into two categories: the main block, fronted by a pillared veranda with relaxing planter's chairs, or in cottages in the lush gardens of hammock-strung trees and tropical plants (sadly the grounds have grown slightly shabby over the years). The best room (book well in advance!) is Gangeshwari (on the top floor of one of the cottages) -- with fantastic views from the terrace, and a sunken tub built right into the rock; there's also a working fireplace. Alternatively, ask for Jamuna, where simple antique furnishings, a working fireplace, and soft white linen provide superb comfort. Of the cheaper (much smaller) rooms, ask for Gomti or the unit above it. Service standards are not the greatest. Also bear in mind that alcohol is not available.
Facilities:
Restaurant; dining terrace; airport transfer (Rs 2,200, 2 days notice); doctor-on-call, Ayurvedic spa; yoga
