"Beautiful vibes"

10.0

Some of the most wonderful holy days I've ever experienced. The boat is lovely, clean, comfortable and offers great views over the lake. Big plus, the home cooked food is delicious. Ajaz and his family are amazing at offering true Kashmiri hospitality, always ready to help from their hearts. They can assist you with all your travel plans, be it the set up of a royal camping trip in the mountains, a sunset shikara ride or a drive to Ladakh. Look no further, they know the best ways and places. A definite winner! Will be back again to bask in these charming beautiful vibes.

"Lily of Nageen is the best base in Srinagar and beyond."

10.0

The amazing sunset.. this boat has one of the best locations in Srinigar. It is parallel to the lake, not perpendicular like some, so you can watch the lake from all the rooms. The staff couldn’t be better.. everything we needed we catered for, including floating market tours, hiking trips into the mountains, meals we requested, laundry.. the lot!

"Unforgettable. Something new. Best for Family holiday."

10.0

So, this houseboat is on Nigeen Lake and not on Dal Lake and that is the beauty of it. As most houseboats on Dal Lake don't have windows facing the lake but the ones on Nigeen Lake do (the ones on Dal lake are parked vertically so the entrance door of the boat faces the lake) which is quite a major difference. Another plus point is this lake is more peaceful with clearer waters. The hospitality of the person hosting us - 'Mehraaj' was amazing - he was friendly, cordial, and always welcoming. These are things you sense first when you come to a new place. This is what makes you feel at home while still brewing with the excitement of new things. This boat is perfect when you have 2 families as the boat has 2 rooms only which can be occupied by your family and hence the whole houseboat becomes your private space. The price of a meal is INR 400/person which looks high at the outset but then you pay for the quality of the food so justified. We stayed for one night but should have stayed for at least 2/3 nights as it is an awesome experience living on a houseboat. Highly recommended if you are visiting Srinagar.

You don't get a good Capccucino but that is just the case in Srinagar - you don't see it usually available as easily as you would want. But this is just me being a Coffee lover. Nothing negative about the place.

"Houseboat in peaceful location"

7.0

Good location, peaceful. Comfortable houseboat. Breakfast provided was good (Poha for vegetarians was amazing). Helpful to arrange driver for us.

Too many salesman coming via boat to sell things to you. The owner was a bit sarcastic when we try to negotiate & discuss with him. Hot water was limited & no electric blanket available.
