Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I arrived in kashmir and was instantly greeted by the hospitality of the kashmiri people and ibrahim,the owner of the houseboat ,as well as his family.They try everything they can to make you enjoy your stay,in which they certainly never failed.Thet gave me the chance to go trekking in the himalayas as well as boat tour on dal lake or city trips to the city of srinagar .The houseboat also is a perfect place to just relax and meeting new peoples.An experience i will never forget, thanks to everyone on the wild Rose !

    My overnight stay didn't quite match the picturesque portrayal seen in photos. The accommodations fell below expectations, with issues like water leaks and discomfort overshadowing any sense of coziness. This establishment might be suitable for budget-conscious bachelors, but I'd hesitate to recommend it for others seeking comfort and quality.

    This hotel (I figure: probably the chain) fills the gap between on the one hand questionable <3000₹ (30€) accommodations and on the other hand extremely pricey western >20000₹ (200€) chain hotels. A backpacker from Europe, I needed a clean place to crash after some stays in different hostels.

    Glad we found this place. As solo female travelers we felt safe and welcomed at home. Bella, the owner is a good guy and helped us get best prices for other services. Basic yet clean rooms, a superb lake view and hot water even wi5h a tub. A good place to stay in Kashmir and close to downtown. The boats taking you from shore to the hotel take 5 mins which are an extra relaxing time. Good family run place to stay on a budget and live the floating house experience.

    As soon as I booked room from Kerala Mr.Jahangir called which gave me great confidence as a solo traveller. He picked me from busstand and I found no hurdles in my Kashmir visit. I felt same like home and Mr.Qadir and Jahangir were always ready for any help round the clock. Location is little bit away from the main road but it is an added advantage of staying in calm surroundings. Initially I booked for one day but extended my stay to 6 nights as I felt great safety as a solo budget traveller.

    Budget friendly. Great location. Basic amenities are provided. Excellent Hospitality and exemplary service by Abrar and Nabu uncle; they suggested great places to visit, to eat, to shop and even arranged shikara rides. Abrar went over and above and took us to shops to buy genuine products. Thank you ! There is reasonable parking for bikes.
