Divine Resort Laxman Jhula

Great location. Nice to be able to spend the hottest hours of the day at the pool side gazing out towards Ma Ganga River. Location good for walking to shops & attractions. Staff helpful upon request. Nice air conditioning & clean white sheets although big stain on one of the pillows. Very high taxes that make the price exceptionally misleading upon booking. Almost 100%! Room had many thick dust & unwiped counter surfaces eg tea box lid, shower glass, cubbies for clothes. Windows & balcony railings also filthy bit that would be hard to keep up with given dust outside. Communal halls & elevator cleanliness also Need a good clean. The skeleton of the place is very nice. Funky furniture & nice ambiance dining on the outdoor upper restaurant patio. Really enjoyed our meal & getting treats from the attached bakery. Overall a nice place to stay. Just expensive given the low standards for cleanliness.

The location is amazing.. also food is good.. room service not that good and room not so clean.. stuff was amazing and cooperative but need more experience..

The hotel location is just fantastic. Very near Laxman Jhula and overlooking the Ganga. We had rooms in the old building. Housekeeping was poor and the rooms were dirty and also need renovations. If possible insist on rooms in the new wing. The food at the restaurant was strictly OK and also overpriced. It would be better to try the numerous surrounding restaurants.

This is a good hotel in Rishikesh. Probably one of the best and we were very pleased with our experience overall. However, they did NOT receive the coupon from Expedia and had no record of our reservation. I don't think this was the hotels fault - something went wrong between Expedia, their local agent and the hotel. So I would suggest double checking with the hotel about your reservation - REGARDLESS of what Expedia sends you as confirmation (I received multiple confirms from Expedia). If you are shown to a less than desirable room (e.g. the first one we were shown to had no windows), argue and request a better room. It will probably be given to you. Both rooms we (eventually) stayed in during our visits were great - with fantastic views of the Ganges and bridge.

We checked out early and moved to another hotel. Room was very small, no where to hang clothes, no room for suitcases. Room wasn't clean and the hotel was very noisy. Plus side you could hear the river going past.
