I am writing this review late but as they day, better late than never ! I booked this accomodation after reading reviews in trip advisor and I must say that trip advisor did not disappoint again Butt clermont houseboats are situated in a secluded area off the Dal lake , quite close to the Hazratbal shrine actually . The houseboats... More

I had read the reviews in trip advisor and booked a houseboat at Butt's Clermont for a 4night stay. I am very glad I did. These houseboats are unlike any other in Srinagar, they are anchored in an area that's both beautiful and easy to access. You don't need to go in a Shikara to reach the boat. The boats... More

We stayed with Mr Butt and his staff for four nights in July. We were met at Srinagar airport and greeted with a delicious pot of Kashmiri tea when we arrived at the houseboats which are in a secluded spot adjacent to a small Moghul garden. Since another group had extended their stay we were welcomed to the houseboat where... More

My husband and I were booked in for 3 nights - but upon arrival immediately extended our stay to five nights. Unlike all the other scores (thousands in fact) of houseboats, Butts is the only one with a beautiful garden. And most importantly it's in a quiet location with no other houseboat neighbours. We conducted a tour of Srinagar and... More

The houseboat we stayed in was really pretty and the intricate wood work and carvings took our breath away. Mr. Butt and his team surely know how to pamper their guests. The place as others have mentioned is at a secluded spot on Dal lake and the view is good. Though it is too close to the road and one... More

Just returned from a 5 days trip to kashmir with Mr. Butt's Houseboat as our base. Once we reached here, it was difficult to want to go to other places. Beautifully maintained houseboats in a secluded part of Dal lake is just the perfect place to destress. And it has its own beautiful garden with a variety of flowers, a... More

The welcome we got on arrival was amazing. Mr Butt is a really lovely man. The houseboat exceeded our expectations. Given the problems in Kashmir over recent years it is amazing that Mr Butt has managed to keep going. The staff were all exzcellent. Shaffi met us at the airport and transferred us to the houseboats. He was also our... More

OH my! Having just returned from two nights on one of the Butt's houseboats, I can honestly say I've relaxed. Such wonderful people, such a magnificant setting, such good cold beer, such tasty food and such a walk into the past. When you are here you feel like someone special and then you read the guestbook and realize how lucky... More

This is how Kashmir is described. My wife and I were very lucky to discover Butt's Houseboats when we were in Srinagar last year. There are 4 boats about 7km from the main city centre with fantastic views across the lake to the Mountains and Lotus fields. Unlike the rest of Srinagar where the boats are jammed next to each...
