“This cottage distinguishes itself with views of the Ganges from private balconies, enhanced by its hillside location. Though a bit removed and reached by a steep path, it's near enough to restaurants and Lakshman Jhula for convenience. The staff seems particularly dedicated to guest satisfaction, ready to assist with arrangements from scooter rentals to taxis.”
