The Ayali Riverside Resort

Quite disappointing. We booked the so called resort for 2 days and checked out after 1 day bearing huge loss. During our stay, we found lot of problems that were not highlighted in the reviews. 1 . Power outages - it was sunny and hot yet power outages occurred multiple times during the day and night which is quite uncomfortable . They also had some issues with generator also. 2. No network connectivity and Internet connectivity - only connected through Wi-Fi . And if power goes off, then you are not connected through Wi-Fi also which was a major issue as if problem occurs at night, no one is there to connect to. 3. Food prices were exorbitantly high. A 20 rs water bottle costed 50 rs and you had no option but to buy. Same goes for ala carte. Too costly but taste wise just average. 4. There is nothing nearby and nothing much to do inside resort. No kids play area, no swimming pool and no restaurants nearby . It’s very easy to get bored there even on 1 day stay. 5. This resort is quite far from main places like Lakshman Jhula or parmarth Niketan. Reaching there takes more than an hour and the route is also quite narrow like mountainside roads . Also the passage to the resort is quite steep . It’s quite tiring to go outside and visit places / restaurants. 6 It shouldn’t be called a resort just bed and breakfast would be more than sufficient.On reaching there,I found it to be a very small property around 12 rooms , one reception cum dining area and a mid sized lawn. We were attracted to the small river passing by but that’s the only attraction there which one might get bored of after sometime . Otherwise there is nothing to do. At such high prices , it’s better to stay somewhere else than here . Staying for the sake of a river nearby is not worth it.

Excellent stay on the outskirts of Rishikesh. The resort has a wonderful mountain view with huel river at the front. Staff and service is beyond par. They even brought us a complimentary cake for our child's birthday. Overall a must visit. Best to book on weekdays when the crowd is less and the ambience is calm. Totally recommend for family and couples

I had an amazing time at the ayali river side resort! the staff were super friendly and helpful, my room was comfy and spacious, and the food was delicious! but, there were a few tiny issues that stopped me from giving it a full 5 stars. My room's heater wasn't working, and even though the staff knew about it, it didn't get fixed during my stay. Also, it'd be great if they provided slippers in the room during winter. And, the outdoor areas near the river could use some more landscaping, signs, and lights to make it an even more relaxing spot, especially at night. Overall, i'd totally recommend this place for its comfy stay, good food, and awesome staff. With a bit of tweaking, it could easily be a top location.

Staff was good, resort view was good. Good for family and friends. Resort can have more indoor games like tt, carrom, kids play arena
