One of the most beautiful destination spas on earth. I'll never forget what it felt like to sip my fresh lemon ginger tree while looking at the strutting peacocks, greenery, monkeys and the Ganges. Magical.

Most amazing experience. Best hospitality and best food ever that I had in my entire travelling life. I have eaten from luxury hotel to top rated restaurant. Nothing was a lovingly prepared and tasty. The local curries are divine. The Thai food to die for. The massages are so spiritual with two therapists and there is generally an unparalleled attention to detail. I will Be back.

I can not imagine any better place for total recovery. When I arrived, I was completely overworked, after my stay of 8 nights, I feel not only much better, but I also have lost a few pounds through a perfectly and individually tailored diet - without any starving. I also learned how to practice my Yoga exercises at home alone. The special breathing exercises and targeted meditation help me to cope well with stress on the job. And the healthy Ayurveda diet, of course, I will keep it. The hotel itself is located at over 1000 m with a stunning view of the valley. There are different types of rooms, I personally prefer the private villas or the valley view rooms. The kitchen is excellent as well as the spa, the staff very friendly and always helpful. Tip: one needs almost no own clothes, each guest gets daily a fresh "kurta" which one can wear not only at the breakfast, yoga etc but also at dinner. only for the fitness center or mountain hiking it is recommended to pack suitable extra clothing. Thanks to the whole team for this unforgettable stay!

Outstanding palace turned into a spa resort. The tranquility of the silence , the chipping sound of the birds, the flora and fonna , the warmth of the staff and their service all make this place , a place to visit before you die.

This spiritual and inspirational place is set in the grounds of the Maharajahs palace. It is like an island in the sky, a serene reclusive paradise away from all the stress and pressures of the modern world. It retains a nostalgic attention to detail that other resorts have forgotten. The whole team are fabulous, courteous and engaging with their humour and genuine interest in you and your wellbeing. You feel like family in the warmest sense. If you need to take special you time, there is nowhere finer on gods earth. Thank you all for unlocking my many barriers and helping me rediscover the important values in my life. Thanks

Ananda is a superb place. A perfect combination of inner spiritual peace and luxury of the outside world. Loved all the spas, a pleasure for the body and yoga, meditation and Vedanta, an upliftment for the soul. ??

This place is just incredible and I will travel 24 hours every year to be here again if I can. The setting with the Himalayas in the background and the Ganges river below is beautiful. As are the gardens and the buildings. Attention to detail is so well thought out and the staff and teachers are so thoughtful and well trained. This spa covers everything, from all aspects of yoga to spa treatments, exercise, lectures on philosophies of life and amazing food. I highly recommend it

Impeccable attention to detail ; from the moment you step onto the grounds you're awe stuck either by the beauty of the Himalayan range , the warmth of the staff or the lavish neoclassical maharajas palace . Existentially redefines existence .

this property deserves a big thumbs up . excellent hospitality food is fresh,healthy,tasty . no words for spa mind blowing . beautiful view of nature and rishikesh. should visit every year to feel fresh anddd just i wuld say i m sure to visit once in every year

Its that time of the year when life implores you to take a pause, notch up the decibel level of sounds from within, ruminate, reflect, true up the checks and balances of the year gone by, aggregate the experiences of the life gone by, shed baggage, put on a fresh pair of dancing shoes..and open your arms to embrace all the tomorrows nudging on the threshold of your personal journey. In the lap of Himalayas..the perfect backdrop for the stillness of this sojourn..
