Loved the ambience,intricate decor,serene location,neat and clean,well-maintained amenities....wonderful view,even the approach road through a small garden Bagh-e-shagoofa was beautiful ,good hospitality by host Mr.Imtiyaz .Definitely recommended.

Wished we'd been offered welcome drink /Kahwah in the morning breakfast menu more varieties of local cuisines should be included.The Dinner was overpriced (400/- per person)considering it included jeera rice,tawa roti,sabji,chicken curry only...would have been complete with a starter snacks as well as some dessert items.However taste was good, Mehraj bhai,the caretaker tried making us feel homely.

Warm and friendly welcome; much laughter was had. A fun and relaxed atmosphere in a stunning setting on peaceful Lake Nageen. Family-run with extraordinary home-made Kashmiri food. Imtiyaz, an excellent guide, took us round Srinagar and up into the mountains, again definitely worth doing. Whether watching the kites and kingfishers at sunset or watching the shikaras paddle past, it is a balm for the soul. I could go on, but suffice to say go and stay on the Lily of Nageen. Thank you!

All good. The only downside was leaving as we wanted to stay longer. Hopefully we will be back!

A houseboat on a beautiful lake with high mountains in the background! What more could you ask for! Tariq and his staff are excellent hosts. They keep you comfortable and attend to every need. (Tariq even bought the shop to me when the weather was bad! ❤️)

It was not their fault that the weather was bad! We thought we could handle the cold as we come from Germany. But we didn't think of the continuous rain! But, Tariq and his team kept the nicest tea coming. And he even brought us some devine walnut fudge.

So, this houseboat is on Nigeen Lake and not on Dal Lake and that is the beauty of it. As most houseboats on Dal Lake don't have windows facing the lake but the ones on Nigeen Lake do (the ones on Dal lake are parked vertically so the entrance door of the boat faces the lake) which is quite a major difference. Another plus point is this lake is more peaceful with clearer waters. The hospitality of the person hosting us - 'Mehraaj' was amazing - he was friendly, cordial, and always welcoming. These are things you sense first when you come to a new place. This is what makes you feel at home while still brewing with the excitement of new things. This boat is perfect when you have 2 families as the boat has 2 rooms only which can be occupied by your family and hence the whole houseboat becomes your private space. The price of a meal is INR 400/person which looks high at the outset but then you pay for the quality of the food so justified. We stayed for one night but should have stayed for at least 2/3 nights as it is an awesome experience living on a houseboat. Highly recommended if you are visiting Srinagar.

You don't get a good Capccucino but that is just the case in Srinagar - you don't see it usually available as easily as you would want. But this is just me being a Coffee lover. Nothing negative about the place.

Some of the most wonderful holy days I've ever experienced. The boat is lovely, clean, comfortable and offers great views over the lake. Big plus, the home cooked food is delicious. Ajaz and his family are amazing at offering true Kashmiri hospitality, always ready to help from their hearts. They can assist you with all your travel plans, be it the set up of a royal camping trip in the mountains, a sunset shikara ride or a drive to Ladakh. Look no further, they know the best ways and places. A definite winner! Will be back again to bask in these charming beautiful vibes.

I liked it all

A unique setting off the beaten path on quiet Lake Nageen. Decorated with local flair and down home comfort. Step off your back porch onto a personal shikara ride on the glassy water . . . what’s not to love?!!! Plus personally prepared private dinner and breakfast. Maybe Kashmir IS heaven on earth!

Nothing. This is singular type of experience and totally relaxing and worth it.

The lake is perfect for relaxing, A park is connected to the property, great for walking & taking in the beautiful surroundings. The houseboat is extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated. Very comfortable bed & unquestionably relaxing.

There was nothing I didn’t like about the property.

The amazing sunset.. this boat has one of the best locations in Srinigar. It is parallel to the lake, not perpendicular like some, so you can watch the lake from all the rooms. The staff couldn’t be better.. everything we needed we catered for, including floating market tours, hiking trips into the mountains, meals we requested, laundry.. the lot!

Nothing

Absolutely loved our stay here! All the staff were very helpful when there was any issues they aimed to please. The hospitality we were shown was beyond expectations. The breakfast was great and we were even fed dinner a few times! Besides how beautiful the houseboat is decorated the location is magical, very peaceful. The way the house boat sits every room has an actual lake view which is unique from most other boats in Dal or Nigeen lakes! Thanks Imtiaz, Meraj and Ajaz

The boat was on the Nageen Lake in a super quiet and idyllic place. The hosts were more than friendly and extremely helpful. We are grateful abour our experience at the boat and would highly reccomend it.
