AI Summary
The houseboat in Srinagar impresses guests with its clean, well-equipped rooms and stunning lake views. The staff's exceptional service adds to the memorable experience. However, the high temperatures may be a challenge.

The houseboats are accessible through 2 minute Sikara ride. As soon as we entered the houseboat (No. 2), Tanveer and his team welcomed us with big smile and explained us the rules and gave us the tour of the houseboat. The team is truly a gem. Top notch hospitality and homely feeling. Our dinner and breakfast (included in package) was made fresh after our order. In our entire Kashmir trip we didn’t had this amazing food as we had in houseboat. Houseboat is entirely made of wood and has 4 rooms (with attached washroom). 3 rooms in same floor and 1 room in above floor. A common living hall & dinning room are spacious. You can say it’s floating hotel with all amenities. Would surely recommend everyone to visit and experience hospitality by Tanveer & team.

This is the 2nd time in 2 years, that we were very lucky to stay in Itc heritage houseboat no 2. Mr Ashraf took excellent care of us,always smiling and ever willing to help us in every way. The food was excellent. An extremely comfortable, luxurious stay. Our shikara boats ***, Ali Mohd was a very friendly and cheerful person. Thank you, Mr Tanvir, Mr Ashraf and Noor for making us feel so special. We look forward to coming back for the third time.

The hospitality at this houseboat is exceptional. The staff are very friendly and attentive to ensuring that guests are comfortable and enjoying themselves. The food is delicious and what’s more there is a personal touch as it’s all prepared at the houseboat . Piping hot Phulkas served with Kashmiri aloo dum! The rooms are luxurious and the house boat decor is in typical Kashmiri fashion with intricate carvings and elegant silk carpets that embeds the soul of Kashmir . A stay in a houseboat on Dal Lake is the complete Kashmir experience

What an amazing experience we had during our 2 day stay on boat #2. From the moment we arrived across the lake, taking a beautiful shikara (small boat) with a delightful guide, we were in our awe. The peaceful ride around the lake to our houseboat was fantastic! So peaceful, so quiet, so beautiful! Greeted by handsome Kashmiri gentleman whose only role was to make our visit be beyond perfect…and it was accomplished. The boat was exquisite but the best part they upgraded us to a suite with a private balcony! All of the hand-carved decor was so elegant. The manager was very nice but Riyaz and Asheif met our every need with smiles and enthusiasm. We really enjoyed many conversations with them too. We spent most of our time on our balcony, watching the world go by. This was an experience we will never forget and must do for everyone who visits Kashmir! Tank you!!

The most impressive part was the service and most amenable attitude of the staff. They were attentive and eager to help. The food was good too. Caretakers Reyaz and Ashraf are doing commendable job under the very able leadership of Tanveer.

The boat itself is gorgeous. The decor, architecture, and area is very beautiful. The staff are all very kind and very helpful. The food in the boat was AMAZING and we had a great time. The rooms were very well done and there is a lot to do just around the boat. You can go explore Kashmiri carpets and pashminas and also take a relaxing boat ride around the lake. The lake these boats are on is very clean and the views were really pretty. Would recommend staying more than one night.

Undoubtedly, the best and only certified 4-star houseboats in Srinagar. They are managed by ITC's WelcomHeritage. Management, manager, and staff are very polite and professional. Food is literally like homemade. Rooms are well-appointed. Located in Nageen Lake, which is the other side of Dal Lake and is also, in a quiet zone. Mattresses and quality of towels needs improvement. Overall, would highly recommend this.
