Rishikesh Resorts 5 Star: tips before you book
A star rating is the property's own class: it tells you about facilities such as a lift, restaurant and room service more than about the view or the quiet, so read recent reviews as well.
Resorts mostly sit outside the walkable centre, on the Neelkanth and Badrinath roads or by the river upstream, so budget for taxis or a car. Ask whether meals are included and how far it is to the ghats for the evening aarti.

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.
