Hotel Ganga Sadan

Haridwar


A significant step up from the other hotels catering to pilgrims is this stylish option with an unbeatable location on banks of the Ganges. The pick of the rooms are the ones with private balcony opening directly to the river, but the professional staff and art on the walls make it a sound choice across the board.
