Goona palace houseboats

Location is ok.

Heater facility is only for limited time. No electrical heater. They use kerosene heater so smell of kersene remains in room.

- Food, Shikara rides, staff behaviour, location

- Electricity supply is not continuous

Mr. Latef was very helpful from the moment I booked. He was very flexible on terms and proposed me a few plans according to my request, feelings, and budget on my arrival. In fact, I had a vague idea of what I wanted to do, I just wanted to relax and enjoy nature in the quiet environment. I felt I could trust Mr. Latef as a person and 3 nights 4 days of my short Kashimir stay started. The people who he connected me to proceed with the trips were also very trustworthy and good. I did not need to worry about being a single female traveler at all.

I can not think of anything. it is worth the value.

Comfortable houseboat, good position not far from the Boulevard by boat but still very quiet at night. Staff was great, attentive, caring, funny, helpful and eternal source of good conversation, a thing we always appreciate. Room number 4 was large enough, with good storage space, VERY hot water, and a good bed (although a bit on the hard side). Breakfast a bit limited but genuine and freshly made. The tour on the lake was excellent (great rowing, Nisar!) and all in all it was a great experience.

There were, although, a few things to point out, not sure if addressable or not, take them as suggestions, not critics. 1) soundproofing is basically non-existant: we're far from the road noise, which is great, but you can hear everything from the next room. Not much of a problem since we were waking up early anyway 2) on both sides there's a small triangular window over the main window with no tent and no way to block the light and the sun: it can get hot fast 3) the common area outside with chairs has no shade at all, it would have been nice to relax there on the water for a bit but the sun was unbearable.

Clean rooms . Nice breakfast… supportive staff..

Speed of wifi is very slow

Goona ji helped a lot during my trip, he arranged vehicle also and provided all support which made my trip wonderful. Staff of House Boat was also very punctual & cooperative and given best services.
