We received very good hospitality. Nice people. The best thing is that they make very good customised packages for sight seeing. They also help the visitors with timely suggestions. Only drawback I found was the location. It's parked on the edge of Jhelum river where the views are not beautiful. The water are dirty. You do not get a complete... More

We were 2 couples with kids. Booked the place due to online reviews. First & foremost the location is not on Dal lake. It is 15mins away from Dal lake and looks more like a canal which offers no views. We visited several other house boats during our stay & I would like to recommend a stay on the Nageen... More

5 of us stay at in this property for 4 days 3 nights. The houseboat itself is fantastic, with full amenities of a star hotel. While any star hotels could provide you with the most luxurious products, the personal touch of the owners (they are family members) are something I treasure most. It is a great pleasure to spend time... More
