WelcomHeritage Gurkha Houseboats

Room - we booked 2 suites but considering it will be on 2 different houseboats, they upgraded one of our room to lake view suite room. This helped us not only stay on one boat but got the most beautiful view from our room. Suite rooms are very spacious and well decorated. Washrooms are good too. Not so good - warm water was not available for bathing. Location - it is at nigeen lake due to which temperature was low and pleasant. View is amazing and vendors comes at your boat for sale. Giving a feeling of floating market. Food - very very limited option as it is made by one person. I would suggest to have dinner outside and opt for breakfast. Food was tasty in terms of whatever we requested considering it is a private butter service. Service - good services but we had to leave our car at ghat no. 1 and from car to the shikara, we had to drag our luggage by ourselves. But the distance is very small like 150metres and if you do not have much luggage then it is not a problem. Same when we checked out. Shikara is complementary.

We stayed at the houseboat for two days i. E. On 8th/ 9th september, 2023. Accomodation is superb. It's very neat and clean. We were at houseboat #3 in royal suit. Washroom is clean & hygienic. The common areas viz. Dinning, drawing, balcony & terrace is very well maintained. The two attendants mujakkir & mujaffar is very attentive, sober & well behaved. Food served in the boat is very tasty particularly the rogan josh served along-with dinner breakfast is healthy and good. Prices of the dinner is slightly on higher side @ rs. 1150 per person. I will recommend to stay at the house boat, it's value for money.

We had a great stay at the property! we were greeted by mr. Tanveer, the manager of the property and were offered a refreshing kahwa upon our arrival. The interiors were beautifully adorned with kashmiri decor, looking out at the peaceful and serene nigeen lake. We were attended to by mr. Majid and mr. Rayees who ensured our stay was very pleasant. The food was delicious and very homely and we kept coming back for more! a revisit is definitely on the cards!

Stay is neat and clean, room is good but as mentioned in booking, they don't offer buffer dinner or elaborate hi tea, they have limited options available and they dont ask or share options before preparing dishes. Overall food is not like usual welcome heritage WelcomHeritage Gurkha Houseboatss. Stay is worth the price but food is below average in terms of preparation of items

What a wonderful experience. Serene and away from the hustle bustle of the city the property offers you cosy relaxing time. the houseboat offers very well maintained rooms with a common dining and living room. the terrace is very well maintained. food served was very tasty and service is very punctual. I'll highly recommend this houseboat for couples and family

Its located at nigeen lake for which you need to arrive at ghat no 1 and take a shikara ride for the WelcomHeritage Gurkha Houseboats. The shikara was arranged by the WelcomHeritage Gurkha Houseboats as infoemed to them earlier and its just a 10 mins ride to the anchored boat. The stay was good with a lot of scope for improvement.

All the food we requested was very well customised to our needs

Awesome view and peaceful location. Food quality is good and homely taste. Staffs are helpful and supportive. The said house boat is probably the best in class house boat. I strongly recommend people to come and stay here for at least a night and enjoy it's awesome interior which will give you a royal comfortable feeling

Staff was very nice. Food was delicious and home cooked. View was very nice. Awesome stay

Very comfortable, unique, exceptional service. This was a family vacation to which gurkha house boat added a kashmiri touch with loving hospitality and cuisine full of personalized touch of mahmood baba and caretaker who was excellent in all ways. Unremarkably superb experience

One of the most amazing houseboat stays, they have a very warm & experienced staff who lets you feel at home right from the moment you enter till you step out to return back. Makhbool chacha is one gem of a person who is available to assist you at any given point of time. Their suite with a balcony is the most amazing room

Stay at gurkha houseboat was amazing, staff is so kind and co operative. Neet and clean toilets overall very nice

Very clean house boat in a quiet location. Nice big rooms, great staff and service. Food was basic however very delicious. Only negative thing was 1 member of staff asking for a higher tip, which i feel shouldn't happen as tips come personally from one. The house boat group needs to address this issue.

Every thing was perfect hospitality food cleanliness

Had an amazing stay - staff is very warm and helpful, houseboat looks beautiful, food was delicious, view was amazing, room was warm and cozy. Had zero issues in our stay here.

the property is at a beautiful scenic location, clean lake compared to Dal lake, well maintained, the staff was very courteous. the food was good.

Great experience this was our second visit. This is perfect gateway for couples se and family. Not a party place a place where you find peace.
