Parmarth Niketan is located on the banks of the Ganga in Rishikesh. The rooms are simple and clean and much better than I thought they would be given this is an Ashram. The room had a great view of the River. I practiced Hatha yoga at the Ashram twice a day and it they were well instructed classes. During the... More

My parents visited the parmarth niketan ashram, Rishikesh on 5th May 2012 and stayed there till 9th May 2012. I have booked their accomodation by email which is given on parmarth niketan website on 3rd May 2012 and they have booked a room. It was very nice experience that they have reserved a room by just an e-mail. My parents... More

i recently visited Rishikesh after a stopover at Haridwar. to start with the entirity of Rishikesh feels so much more peaceful and tranquil compare to the unmanaged scenes of Haridwar. Parmarth niketan is an ashram located on the banks of Ganges and holds a breath taking 'Aarti' (prayer) each evening on the banks of the river. spectacular place to just... More

I stayed there for 8 days. It has one of the cleanest and well maintained ghats with a Ganga-Arti every evening. If you are a religious person hoping to find spiritual enlightenment, I doubt you will be rewarded. It is more of a custom-made retreat more apt for introspection and self-study. A lot of foreigners around means that they have... More

I stayed at the ashram for the excellent yoga festival, & then for a couple of extra nights. There is hot water, clean rooms, great laundry service, beautiful surrounds & lovely people. The wifi is limited to the Ganga block and is very inconsistent. This would be the only area for improvement. The food was excellent! More

We have been to Parmarth 3rd time in December 2011. Its a beautiful Ashram with Ganges a minute walk away. All was good except one experience which spoiled few moments at the end.... Ashram break time is 1 to 3 in the afternoon and as per the last 2 times, we used to check out at 3 as we have... More

Amazing setting with spectacular views of the river and mountains. FIlled with caring teachers and enlightenment...worth while experience. More

Rishikesh has many ashrams and hotels. For those who are open to experiencing the timeless nature of Rishikesh then Parmarth Niketan is a great option. This place is not at all for those who want service and pampering. Most of the people prefer the river view rooms but my favourite rooms are the new rooms of Yamuna block which look... More

This place is not a hotel in conservative sense. It stands for a real experience of the Rishikesh life. If we go there with the mindset of being served and pampered then we need to look for another place. Only those of us who come with an open mind to experience the essence of Rishikesh will feel comfortable here. It... More
