Our stay at Omar Khayam was incredibly disappointing. They seem to charge for every little thing, even breathing if they could. My wife and I booked through Goibibo, impressed by the pictures of a houseboat. Upon arrival, we were told our booking was for a cottage on land, and the houseboat would cost an additional ₹3000. When we refused and began looking for alternatives, they called back, offering it for ₹1500. Reluctantly, we agreed, but they later charged us extra for water (₹500), a blanket (₹500), and other items, inflating the total back to ₹3000. Truly a pathetic experience—avoid at all costs. Please don't go there

Very beautiful house boat, in good condition, best location possible (right at a corner, with a lot of space for 2 decks), delicious food (Kashmir rice was delicious) and good hospitality by Mr. Fayaz, her daughter and son Omar. Fantastic relation price for quality. Enjoy!

It was a dreamy stay. The rooms were clean, spacious and amazing. The owner was very kind hearted as he arranged lunch for us. It was the best experience I ever had. I think everyone should go ahead for such an amazing property if want to spent a night in a houseboat. The view was amazing though

We stayed in one of the most stylish houseboat on Dal Lake. The owner had such a good taste in house design 🥲. He told us his houseboat is more than 40 years old now. All the furnitures drives us a little crazy because of their ages and also their beauty too. I regreted not taking photos inside the house. We did not have so much time here. Maybe next time when I come back, I will stay longer and enjoy life on Dal lake more than this time. Please help me to send our thank to the owners who took care of us from we first shown up until we left at Srinagar airport.

Rooms were ok. House boat stay was ok too. But finally came the fat bill for food which gave a shock of our life. They asked whether they could serve for dinner . We agreed without asking for tariff or checking on prices. This was a big mistake on our part for which we were forced to pay a heavy price for it.The next day morning when we were checking out, the dinner bill amount which the houseboat owner said put as into a tangle. We didn't have the amount as weren't prepared. So I had go to an ATM to pay the amount

If you are planning to visit Srinagar, you must experience the stay at houseboat. The Omar Khayam is a wonderful houseboat. Although the view outside is not excellent, but the stay experience is wonderful. Dining area, room, washroom everything is perfect for a family stay.

I had booked a suite on the houseboat for a overnight stay. We had a wonderful stay. Excellent hospitality throughout the stay and delicious home cooked food. The owner had also arranged for a shikara ride which is a unique experience in itself.
