Boat is Nigin lake a much better and quester lake than Dal. Ishaq the manager and the caretakers were excellent. The personal involvement of the owner Mr Saboor was very nice to see. Though, remember to keep in mind that you have the exact head count of even little children accounted for. This they charged us even though we rented the entire boat. Did not seem logical when we had the whole boat to ourselves. By overall worth the experience.

Awesome!
A feedback from people who visited house boats was pretty negative. And, I had already booked this one, But, I am glad I made a real good choice. The boat was new, clean and so homely. I strongly recommend anyone who visits Srinagar to stay here. They are affiliate by ITC and do carry a brand name. The staff was courteous, warm and the food was so delicious. The owner was arm enough to come and make us feel welcome. Please visit this houseboat in case you looking for quality stay. Perpetual

House boat no5, clean with a great guy Sharif.
A pleasant trip, particularly they serve excellent food at a very reasonable rate. House boat number 5 is very clean, thoughtfully decorated. The main hero of this House Boat is the Caretaker young boy called Sharif. Always smiling and helpful. I would strongly recommend a 5 days stay here. Notwithstanding the above, stay awey from Kashmir till the unrest will be solved. We had a bad experience on 9th. July 2016, on the road, mobs blocking roads and throwing stones at vehicles. Kashmir police and CRPF, hard working force saved us to return to HB, a big thank you. Overall, Kashmir is a lovely state, nice people managed ( or ruled) by ......

A tad over priced!
The Hotel Reservation had not reached them by the time we reached for check-in. The manager was not very courteous and told us that we would have to pay despite us showing the pre-paid voucher of hotels.com. It was left to us to make calls to hotels.com to confirm our booking. Not the best way to treat guests!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Wooden floor in room was creaky making loud noise while walking across the room disturbing sleep if one has to go to bathroom in the night. Loud noises of utensils being cleaned in pantry through shared wooden partition wall between pantry and our room. carpet in corridor was not properly set with edges curled up tripping me twice, had to request to put a mat over the curled edge. No menu or charges applicable for extra food and beverages were mentioned anywhere nor were informed and at checkout caretaker asked exorbitant amount for water and snacks.
