Rishikesh Hotels 5 Star: what to know
Rishikesh splits into a few very different bases. Tapovan and Laxman Jhula are the walkable cafe-and-yoga side; Swarg Ashram and Muni Ki Reti sit by the ashrams and ghats; Triveni Ghat is the busy town centre; the Neelkanth and Badrinath roads hold the resorts and riverside camps that need a car. Pick the base first, then the type of stay.
- Most hotels 5 star are in Tapovan (19), Laxman Jhula (5), Shivpuri & rafting belt (4).
- 48 have a star rating, including 48 five-star and 0 four-star.
- 17 (35%) allow pets and 8 (17%) are on or facing the Ganga.

Our area lines are drawn with a local's pencil, not a surveyor's, so a stay near the border might sit one neighbourhood over. Rates rise and fall with rafting season, festivals and the monsoon, so give the property a quick check before you pack.
