I had stayed at Great Ganga a few years ago and had such fond memory of the place, I didn't want to go anywhere else while back in Rishikesh. By all standards, this is still very much the right place to stay in Rishikesh in this category: the staff is absolutely wonderful, the location perfect, the food as good as... More

As others have said, the staff at Great Ganga Hotel are so friendly, helpful and accomodating. The staff went out of their way for service such as programming my TV for English stations and bringing a cell phone to my room when the main switchboard was not working. The room was extra large, and very clean, other than a slight... More

I stayed in this hotel during a 3 night stay in Rishikesh. I had spent two weeks in India prior to coming to this hotel and it was a breath of fresh air. Desk staff were very helpful with all my needs and also helped with arranging my tours. Lots of useful advice from them. Rooms are reasonably sized and... More

Excellent hotel in Rishikesh! :) The rooms are clean, comfortable and well maintained. The bathrooms are ok. 2 minutes from the Ganga and 10 minutes away by foot from the Sivananda Ashram. You can take an auto risckshaw to get to the more "lively" part of Rishikesh in 5-10 minutes. Nice massage with friendly staff. The food at the restaurant... More

Great Ganga has a great location and view. Good and clean rooms, but the staff needs a class in politeness and patience. We were constantly harassed by the front office staff just because our taxi was waiting on the front parking lot just because we hadn't ordered the taxi through the hotel. We got five phone calls in a span... More

We stayed here in November 2011, for 1 night. For a small town, it is good hotel. Good food in the restaurant, it is conveniently close to Parmarth Niketan and Ram ka Jhula. The spa is also excellent, i had a very good ayurvedic massage. Would definitely recommend this place to travellers. More
