"Superb hotel and staff. Returned to this hotel after 11 years. It has since been taken over and refurbished to a very high standard. One of the staff from 11 years ago, Pankaj, was still there. Very helpful with looking after our luggage etc. Ekta on reception made contact earlier on the day of arrival and organised a quick check in and also for us to go for the aarti which was going to be soon after we arrived. Rahul and team were fantastic in the restaurant, accommodating with the option of trying out a number of the fantastic dishes in the menu. Free transfer from the parking area and guide to take us for the aarti all added to a great stay with very inviting rooms, all clean and exceptionally tidy. Definitely our choice of hotel to stay at when visiting Haridwar again. Will always recommend to all family and friends. Thanks for our memorable stay."

10/10 Excellent
"What is great? Overall Property location, staff, rooms and maintenance and services are great. You can walk to Har ki Paudi and Roopeway to Mansa Devi easily in addition to being close to famous eateries and markets. What are the challenges? 1. Near by area stinks of cow dung and is messy (but then this is Har ki Paudi, Haridwar). 2. From Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Parking to the hotel walk is challenging if you have heavy bags or strollers as the area is heavily crowded area). Though the hotel sends a staff to pick you up but if you have multiple suitcases, it could be challenging not only for this hotel but for most of the hotels/guesthouse in the Har Ki Paudi area."

"We had a wonderful stay at Bhagirathi by Atishay Hotel. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and well maintained. What really stood out was the hospitality—every staff member we interacted with went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. A special mention to Kartik, Deepanshu, and Gaurav for their exceptional service and warm hospitality. They were attentive, courteous, and always ready to help. The evening pooja and aarti within the hotel premises was definitely the highlight of our stay. It created such a peaceful and spiritual atmosphere and made the experience feel truly special. Breakfast was also excellent, with a large selection of delicious food and plenty of choices for everyone. Overall, a beautiful and memorable experience. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend Bhagirathi by Atishay Hotel to anyone visiting the area."
