Usually all the hotels look good on web site and this was my apprehension when I was looking for a clean and good accomodation at Vrindavan. Incidentally I happen to speak to Anurag (who owns this hotel) who assured me about the cleanliness of the rooms and also offered me an excellent value-for-money offer. My decision to stay at Bhakti... More

We came here for 4 days for my husbands birthday and had a lovely relaxing time. We didn't use any of the spa facilities but found the whole experience very restful and enjoyable. The service is second to none, particularly in the restaurant, who were excellent in helping me cope with the after effects of a dodgy tummy and couldn't... More

My stay up at the Anandas was just perfect. If you are looking to renew your senses and come back refreshed to your hectic work life Ananda is that perfect break. Tucked away in the Himalayas this quaint little place has one of the best spa services in india. The rejuvenation package ensures you leave the place like a new... More

The property is breathtaking... There is a feel of calmness to the whole place and you can feel the same the moment you enter. The welcome at Front desk is very nice and their Ginger Lemon Honey tea is out of the world. If it was me, I would just keep on drinking the same. After some confusion regarding rooms... More

It's the first time I'm writing a report on trip advisor. For the first time I felt that it was important for me to tell how outstanding an hotel can be. For my 40th birthday, I came to Ananda on my own for a week of yoga and detox. I have booked the Viceregal Suite, and fast after me accommodating... More

This was my 5th or 6th visit to Ananda. I have been going there since past 6 years. This time i went with my wife. The place looks the same as it was 6 years back, but it never bores you! I strongly recommend this place to people who are looking forward for a peaceful & serene environment, where you... More

I went with a group of friends and we all had a great time. The spa treatments were wonderful and the visiting reflexology woman fantastic. The food was great and you can buy alcohol if you want. The morning yoga and the mediation sessions were really relaxing, but if you are a serious yoga person you will find it too... More
