A tranquil haven by the foothills of the Himalayas! The erstwhile summer residence of the Maharaja of Tehri Garhwal, Anand Kashi By The Ganges, Rishikesh - IHCL SeleQtions, is a hidden gem tucked away in the lush valley of the Himalayan mountains. Located by one of the most auspicious bends of the Ganges, it is resplendent with idyllic charm, mystical stories, and transcendent tranquillity. Set in the heart of the holy land of Uttarakhand, our serene hotel is woven in a rich tapestry of ancient folklore, untouched meadows, and sparkling springs. Cocooned by a rich expanse of lush fruit orchards and endless views of the ethereal Ganges, the property enfolds you with the promise of peace and purity. The hotel showcases an aesthetic play of traditional Garhwali architecture adorned by contemporary embellishments in its decor. The accommodation is conceptualised in the Vedic Panchamahabhuta philosophy – touch (Sparsh), taste (Kesari), sight (Dhrishti), sound (Ujala) and scent (Mehek) – with each room carefully crafted to indulge your senses. Wake up to the sun’s dance on the river’s surface or breathe in the abundant mountain air as you de-stress in our spacious rooms. Decorated with rich hues, subtle tones, and delicate floral designs, your stay is complemented by designer luxury essentials and generous vanity counters. Our all-day diner, Ana Rasa brings you a curated dining experience with global cuisines along with a slice of fresh organic produce from our very own orchards. Enjoy a starry night at our rooftop bar, Amrit Tara as your sip on a range of crafted cocktails and appetising bites or have a relaxed meal at the splendid Ganga deck. Our flexible conference rooms are perfectly equipped for intimate business meetings and conferences. Unwind as you take a leisurely swim in the infinity pool - shaped to the curvature of the Ganges - or surrender to the gentle strokes of wellness at our first-of-its-kind intimate spa, Amrit Kashi. Soak in the spiritual healing energy of Rishikesh at the hotel’s Shiv Mandir, or let your soul strum to the rhythm of the Ganga Aarti performed by our resident priests. Seize an opportunity to imbibe in the heavenly symphony of Rishikesh by taking a dip in the sacred waters at our private beach.

The place is a hidden gem among the hills and flowing Ganges. Very serene, calm and peaceful resort. The scenery is breathtaking. Leaves a very positive impact to come back again. Nivedan & his team are an epitome of courtesy and hospitality.

Better bring food from home , no body will serve you food there. Property although situated at good location but it is highly understaffed. During breakfast we literally called for food again and again . Good place to sit with family but one has to adjust with poor service

The Hotel can be rated as one of the best we have stayed in India. From the point of Check-in, room service, quality of food, pleasant nature of all the staff, and the help in arrangement of local travel was outstanding. Our stay was overseen by the Hotel Manger Ms Meenakshi, who can be rated as one of the best Ambassador's for the Taj brand we have ever come across. Her professional, friendly attendance to each of her guests was truly priceless

Beautiful serene place with perfect Taj group hospitality… Always at its best. Appreciate the entire team, with special mention of Rupali, Chef Upadhya, HK team member Rohit!! Keep it up. The small but beautifully kept property was admirable. And so was the Ganga Aarti on the private small beach! Enjoyed every moment at the resort.

Location says it all, I have yet to see another hotel which gives a better view of River Ganga in its mystic glory. And then waking up to Rohit Kapri's flute is something everyone would want to experience. Indian dishes of Chef Ashwin Ingle are commendable. The hotel could gear up on the infrastructure and upkeep and addition of more cuisines(apart from Indian). its biggest asset though is the view it offers and location. Meenakshi and Rupali were a great help in extending our stay. Special mention for Rohit Rawat Singh and Yogesh in house keeping for the efforts they took in decorating each room differently every single day with floral patterns as well as shapes they even made diiferent Ganesh ji for Ganesh chaturthi each one different than the other for every room.

It is a beautiful property, the highlight being that its near to the Ganges and therefore picturesque. The place is small but cosy for spending good time with families and friends. The staff is very helpful and nice thanks for making our stay memorable . It is a bit unlike other Taj properties (as those are many times extensive in everything, including aspects like buffet breakfast etc), this one is as i shared is cosy, but fairly decent to spend time
