    I had a great stay at Shiv Shakti Yogpeeth. It is really nicely located up the hill from Tapovan. Surrounded by green, birds sing, the sounfs of river and waterfall rest and joy come by itself. It is also a very nice spot, if you like hiking. The other day I did the Kunjapuri temple trail and it was strenuous but beautiful. The hosts as well as the people I met were all nice. The food is fresh and tasty and facilities are clean. Enjoy :)

    The location is a little far from the main road.

    The environment around the stay was very amazing, it is very close to a lot of waterfalls. The cafe on the stage is very nice and the food is very good. The staff and the owner are also very nice and helpful. I will recommend everyone to stay there for at least a few days if you are going to Rishikesh.

    If you plan to arrive without the owners help, then be prepared for a rocky uphill battle ....

    Location is everything here. High over Rishikesh settled in a lush forest with an amazing rocky stream in front. The cottages are perfectly in harmony with nature and the wonderful owners Ram and Dhiksha with their team make you think twice wether you go out to explore the many amazing things around Rishikesh,..... or maybe just chill in this wonderful oasis!

    The first impression of the property was great.It's location is in the heart of the mountains and if you are into trekking and have minimum luggage then u can also trek to the place or call the owner to book a taxi for you. On the side of the hostel you can find a gorgeous tributary of river Gange with many waterfalls, there you can also go for canyoning. The property also has a swimming pool facility, yoga hall and space for exercise. During my stay they also hosted a wonderful musician on the weekend who made the evening magical. The place is absolutely superb, the staff were most friendly, helpful, full of local knowledge and Ram bhai (the owner) is very polite, jolly and always ready to go the extra mile for the guests. The facilities were clean, the dorm was spacious, there were lockers for the backpacks and also free wireless internet in the lounge. Food was also great and a real bonus is banana pancake with honey, which I loved very much and also recommend. Some of my orders were a little late and I have to repeat them again but my stay was so comfortable and relaxing that I won't even complain about this. The Indian cuisine that they served was also very delicious. Overall the quality of food I found was organic and as good as home. Overall I had a lovely, relaxing time at this place. I met new people and made some good friends. It was everything I needed and wanted from my vacations, clean and homely environment, close to nature and away from the irritating traffic of Rishikesh. The staff members treated me very well and were very pleasant. I would highly recommend staying here and will definitely return.

    Everything was wonderful. Shiv Shakti is located in the most peaceful part of Rishikesh, in the middle of a forest and a few steps away from the waterfalls. Ram is such a friendly and helpful host who takes care of everything. As of the food, it is very tasteful and of high hygiene standards. I am only looking forward to return to Shiv Shakti:)

    We didn't realize how hot Rishikesh could get in mid July. Luckily it rained for a couple of days which cooled it down. The staff provided us with a table fan which helped a lot. I would suggest planning a visit in winter/spring time. Also the road from Tapovan to this place is rocky and low clearance cars like sedans should be avoided. When arranging a pick up, insist to be picked from Tapovan. They asked us to come midway up the road and our taxi driver was almost ready to quit and take us back.

    The owners and staff are amazing. They make you feel at home and do their best to address any concerns that you have. The food is delicious and has a home cooked feeling to it. The location is picturesque and the premises are tidy and well kept. I was looking for a quiet retreat with my parents in their 70's and this place provided us that. We got the cottage at the back of the property which was even more secluded. Sitting on the patio, sipping tea, was our favorite pastime. The yoga and meditation classes are for seasoned practitioners, not novices like us. The yoga trainer Bala's chanting has a mesmerizing effect. In all, it was a great experience.
