This is one of the best houseboat in Dal Lake in Kashmir i ALways book This houseboat when i Ma planning to Kashmir for my groups. The interior is very new and the boys working in this houseboat are very good
We had the most lovely and wonderful stay here at the New Golden Gem houseboat. Tariq, Latif and Parvez took such wonderful care of us. We felt like family and can’t wait to come back again. Thank you so much for the great hospitality and affection. God bless !
we took package that covers sringar, pahalgam, gulmarg and sonamrg by hamid karnai. it was great experience and very convenience. we stayed at his houseboat at Dal Lake and the view was amazing. the hospitality when we stay there was also good, the food and daily crossing to/fro houseboat was great. if we were to go there again, we will definitely deal with Mr. Hamid Karnai again. hope to visit Kashmir again in future.
This houseboat can be reached only by shikara. There are 5 rooms of which we rented 2 rooms. Both rooms were awesome with attached bathrooms with hot water facility. We were welcomed onboard by latheef bhai with complimentary Kahwa tea, which was our first time experience. The tea he served was so totally refreshing and we took to this tea for the whole of our Kashmir stay. He also served tasty dinner and breakfast. We were eggtarians and he served rice, rotis, dal, vegetable dishes, paneer dish, egg curry, green salad, and all were awesome.
now i am living in karnai houseboat and here staff is very very friendly and responsive and its budget Houseboat so when You come in srinagar live here....view from Balcony is very very nice and Near housboat no rush of other housboats....Thanx Regards aniket ghuge.
Very good houseboat, helpful staff and owner is very nice.he specially came to meet us.good breakfast, dinner, visit the lake also,every one can go, 5 out of 5 to this house boat,and it's on the dal lake
Well maintained houseboat only four rooms in this houseboat. Staff are co-operative and well trained. For the breakfast, lunch and dinner stuff are limited. If you want outside food they will provide but take more time due to transportation issue.
I stayed in their houseboat in several occasions during my visit to Kashmir. From warm reception of Mr. Hameed Karnai to quality of accommodation and food is really a sweet memory of my stay there. Lastly when I stayed there, a great change was noticed. They have renovated the toilets, which is looking beautiful now. Entire boat has been polished and the face-lift is really made the houseboat more attractive. Their location is very advantageous, facing Boulevard Road (Ghat No.13), from where all the tourist sights, restaurants, shops are not far off and conveniently connected. My suggestion to the management : Replace the coloured ones with white towels in the toilet.
The golden gem house boat gives you a feeling of living in a country side luxurious hotel on the lake. Karnai travels help with travel arrangements and details of overall tour customised as per your requirement or as per their standard plans. Definitely suggest them to all friends and relatives
Stayed at New Golden Gem Houseboat for a day only.But wish was able to extend our stay at Srinagar more on that houseboat.Cooperative and helpful staff also stay at houseboat was moreover like a stay in palace. Looking forward to have a trip again to Srinagar....
