I booked two different rooms. First room was good and overall experience was fine.
But then I shifted to higher end room but that was really bad experience. Towels are missing, soap dispenser was broken, spider webs were clearly visible in some part of room.
Shower water leaks on bathroom floor which is really bad because you need to be very careful while walking from shower to room - this problem exists in both upper end rooms.
So i went to tell at reception, but person was simply doing something on phone and did not bother to look at me.

Next day, exhaust fan (which is installed above bathtub) simply dropped. Maintenance guy came to fix it, after sometime AC air was smelling like something is burning. Few more conversations happened with staff but no point of writing anything more. I got shifted to new room and left hotel next day. No going to back that hotel for sure 😞. I booked it after seeing very good feedback but experience was terrible.

First, I had apparently reserved a room without a private bathroom, and they upgraded me figuring I didn't realize my mistake. I also got a river view, which was quite amazing. The staff was very kind, polite, and accommodating. Pooja was always ready with a smile and asking me if I needed anything or where I was planning to visit. One morning, I was leaving before breakfast and they made me breakfast TO GO of fresh cut fruit, sandwiches, and a smoothie. My laundry was always completed by the end of the day and was returned freshly ironed. The restaurant was on the 5th floor with an amazing 180 degree view of Risihikesh and the mountains beyond. The food was delicious-a perfect blend of spices. Breakfast was served as a buffet with many choices, and room service was delivered timely. At 4, they had High Tea which was free as well as an option at 5 to attend Arti at the Ganges. Overall, it was a very good experience. I would recommend this hotel and would return.

Between September 11th and September 16th 2025, my fiancé and I stayed there. My rating for Room Service would be 10/10. Rakhi is a wonderful person who took great care of our room like it was her own. Your kindness is greatly appreciated, Rakhi.🤗

However, I would like to emphasize the quality of the food and the service they provide. There is a serious quality issue at this hotel, and you need to take this seriously. After eating their breakfast, I developed heavy diarrhea and got sick. It was only on our last day that my fiancé discovered a bug, and we realized it was caused by food that was fried in expired oil. I have not complained to the food inspector, but it is not safe for guests. Most of their guests were not hotel guests but they came only for breakfast. this means they are only getting this quality food.

Excellent stay for 2 nights. Very helpful and polite staff. Ganga view from our room was mostly trees (3rd floor) but top floor common anea and restaurant floor view was spectacular. Restaurant is fine dining, somewhat expensive, but high level of service and food quality is good. . Nice ambiance with live sitar music. Included breakfast also good, with many options available, both Indian and continental, hot and cold. The highlight of our stay was going to the Ganga Aarti with Mr. Vijay (included with hotel stay). He took a group of 8 of us and did a good job of including both Indians and foreigners. He took very good care of us despite a heavy rainstorm, kept good track of us in the chaotic environment, helped us to participate fully. and arranged a tuktuk for us for the way back because of the rain. Was one of the highlights of my trip to India! Free yoga in the morning which was very good, and high tea at 4pm.

Went up to roof top restaurant and no one was working, two other guests were standing around wondering what to do.

I stayed in Elbee Ganga view Rishikesh for 2 nights with my wife in April. Overall It was a good experience.

Reception: All staff was helpful and friendly. They gave is a warm welcome with garland. The room they offered me was spacious and good. But it was lacking bath tub. I shared my concern for the room with bathtub and they immediately changed my room to a room with bathtub.
So i would give a 5 star to the front office team for their motto towards customer satisfaction.

*Room: Room was good, spacious and all the facilities mentioned on their website. In Room locker was non-operarional (seems due to dead battery). I dont needed the in room safe, So i would not deduct any rating there.

Minor plumbing issue in roof shower as some water was leaking towards upside which was spoiling the false ceiling of the roof. I shared it with reception and they took it positively and assured to get it fixed.

*In Room Dining:* Food was good, Portion size was very good. Price was reasonable.

Location is good. Rooftop has an amazing bird's eye view of Rishikesh.

We recently stayed at the EllBee hotel in Rishikesh for two nights, booked through the Expedia app. Despite the promising appearance on the Expedia website, our experience was mixed. The welcome drink, a sweet rose water concoction, was a nice touch. However, the overall hotel had an unpleasant smell and seemed poorly maintained.Upon entering our room, we encountered a musty odor, suggesting it might have been closed for an extended period. Despite this, the room did offer a good view of the Ganga. We faced issues with cleanliness, especially in the shower, bathtub, and toilet, but the staff promptly attended to our request for cleaning.We had to change rooms due to a malfunctioning shower, and the new room lacked blackout curtains, allowing unwanted light in at night. Additionally, the restriction of providing only one key card per room was inconvenient. The staff, particularly at the reception, could be more accommodating in this regard.While the hotel has potential with its Ganga views, improvements in cleanliness, maintenance, and customer service are needed for a more satisfactory stay.\"

Absolutely atrocious. Stay away

The hotel have advertised themselves as a 4 star hotel and without being overly emotional this hotel is not more than a 1 star hotel with aspirations of being something better.

It is dirty, the staff are shouting at each other whilst customers are there. There is no one to take your luggage which is a given in a 4 star hotel. The room service is atrocious they dont even answer the phone, i had to ask 5 times for bottled water which eventually i was charged for which again a 4 star hotel gives as complimentary. The food was salty and eventually when it came the staff came with a grumpy face and no manners. The hotel is dirty totally run down, do not be deceived by its amazing pictures.

I had booked this hotel for 2 nights and i left after 4 hours as i had enough of it.

I had to complain that why are you charging me for water and i was told that its their hotel policy and due to the seriousness of the situation they refunded my water and that is the only compensation i got.

There are no views of nothing.

Totally feel misled by the Hotel and its reviews and also Hotels.com that they let this happen.

It is totally disgusting.

This is not a spiteful review or overly emotional.

Elbee Ganga (for me) is one of those places that used to be good at sometime. While the staff is friendly and very attentive, it all ends there. The main gate to enter had bags of sand and cement for you to get in and cars and SUV’s can’t get in. So you enter the hotel with sand in your shoes.

The rooms are dilapidated and closets, furniture, and beds are worn out and way past their lifespan. Bathrooms have water stains on the walls and ceilings and mine had a fly that refused to leave. The pictures on the website must be from when it was new as that sheen and feel has long gone.

The two saving grace for the property are the folks who work there and the food in the restaurant on 5th floor. We were there for an evening and night so managed it but I would not recommend this place to my friends and family visiting Rishikesh.

Filthy and not worth the price. The first room was so moldy/smelled so bad I immediately got a headache. They moved me to a room that was an “upgrade” after telling me there were no upgrades available. While less moldy, the room was still filthy. There is stuff on the floor, the shower curtain is now brown instead of white, and surfaces have obviously not been cleaned in a long time. Even the toilet had obviously not been cleaned properly. The “clean” dishes at breakfast still have tiny pieces of food on them, the kettle smelled so bad I couldn’t use it, the windows and mirrors and glass door were splattered with stuff and fingerprints (a few places where somebody smudged stuff around as if trying to clean it).

I asked about a massage but was told they couldn’t help me arrange one because their spa was closed. I asked them to help me with a couple other things to which the answer was always “no.” I’ve always found people here in India to be friendly and helpful but not here.

The wire on the phone is exposed, I saw a couple crawling things in the bathroom, the air conditioner if off when you leave so the room is boiling… “Housekeeping” woke me up early the morning of the day I checked out.

This hotel was designed to be special but has fallen into severe decay.

Staff intruded privacy; Ruined our vacation

My stay at EllBee Ganga View has been the worst hotel stay ever. Faced issues right from the check-in until check-out.
The hotel has parking for only 4 cars inside the gate; rest of the cars need to be parked outside. No person from security at the gate.
On check-in, we were provided room 206. The bedsheet in the room was torn and had curry spots. When asked for an additional spoon to stir my tea and extra bathroom slippers, I was told the ‘Deluxe Double Room’ is supposed to be a single-occupancy room and thus, it has been equipped for a single person only.
The Refrigerator was humming loudly. The Air Conditioning in the room didn’t have a Heating mode. Had to sleep in a cold room for the night.
When this was brought up with the hotel staff next day, they provided us with an upgraded room no 404 which was supposed to have heating. But the heating did not work there either. We asked the manager (around 1pm) to get this fixed before we move our luggage to this room, but even around 5.30 pm, this was not fixed. The hotel staff didn’t even have a Heater available. We received a heater around 10.30 pm.
While we were out for dinner around 8.30pm, the hotel staff including the manager, the head of housekeeping, and one person from maintenance went into our room in our absence, without calling us up to ask for permission.
Very sad to state that this hotel has been marked as 4-star where the facilities and hospitality are both abysmal.
Would not recommend staying here.

The rooftop restaurant, plus the open terrace above it, then the Beatles corner at a level above and finally the viewing point at the very top are great to relax and give beautiful views of the Shivalik mountains and the Ganga river. The food in the restaurant was good too (except for doughnuts that were microwaved before they were served making them chewy and rubbery). The restaurant ambience and decor is also great.

The main problems are the rooms. Towels and bedsheets haven't been replaced in years, curtains are flimsy light, the shower knob came off while taking a bath and fell on my feet. Dusty under beds and shoddy cleaning overall.

The staff however were helpful and cordial. But that could not make up for the badly maintained common areas and room.

The hotel is next door to a cow yard and a trash dump and as a result there are thousands of flies all over the open areas of the hotel. The room and bed were extremely comfortable but the bed did not have a mattress cover and the mattress was dirty and stained and the pillows the same. The duvet cover was torn in a couple of places. The towels were in bad condition, dingy and frayed. Bathroom was dirty and not well maintained with stained marble in the shower and around the toilet. All that said the Staff was very nice and pleasant. The hotel has a great view of the Ganges and the mountains.

The hotel was very nice, clean, beautiful paintings, amazing staff specially the manager who was concern to all the guests in the hotel. Food was also delicious exceptionally. River view at the restaurant doubled the taste. We took Yoga session also in the morning which was a great start of the day. I got a compliment of spa service also which added more in teh whole experience. Loved the place very much. Recommend to all the travelers towards Rishikesh. Thank you team Ellbee Ganga!

Excellent staff, hotel facilities and very authentic & taste food. Staff can do anything to make your stay comfortable. The hotel is as per international standards. I recommend this hotel to stay for visiting Rishikesh, and further. We visited Hemkund Sahib.

Very good location; extremely friendly and helpful staff especially the Manager Negiji, who went out of his way to make us comfortable. He took us all the way to the Ganga Aarti at Triveni Ghat, which was one of the most awesome and unforgettable experiences of our whole trip! The staff in the restaurant were also extremely helpful and attentive

The view of the holy Ganges in the backdrop of the Himalayas from the room is breathtaking. Awesome location and ganga view are the key USP of this hotel. The rooms are spacious and clean. Staff are very well-behaved and cooperative. Food is very good but only vegetarian dishes are available; although the view from the rooftop restaurant will amaze you. Spa service is average and can be improved. The complementary yoga session is also good.

The location was good and I had a beautiful view of the River Ganges. The restaurant staffs very attentive and and the menu was good. The Restaurant manager especially was very helpful and who was also a tour operator. I would recommend Rishikesh over Varanasi any day. The only let down was the house keeking. Rooms were not cleaned during the day and once had to point this out. The staff in general were polite and helpful.

NZ Family visit to Rishikesh.

Good location,main route made it easy to grab auto for rides. Meal services are great with warm fresh food replenished at breakfast (as required). We had snacks during the day and the tea was great. Dunner was good as we ate in one night. We also used the local tour service for selected trips and that was good as well. Advise and location tips provided by reception staff was worthy. One has to remember the locality is in a developing country and come with 'well sized' expectations. Property is being updated as well. Decent stay and accommodating staff..

The staff was so incredibly helpful with our requests. Our room overlooked the Ganga (Ganges) and the roof top terrace restaurant not only had spectacular food but also spectacular view of the Ganga. We easily walked along the Ganga to nearby shopping. Our room was very large with two queen size beds. The beds were quite soft. We prefer harder beds. The room smelled a bit musty, but all of that can be overlooked because of the smiling and wonderful staff.

Great view and accessibility

EllBee overlooks the Ganga and and offers great access to the pedestrian lane along the river all the way to Triveni Ghat, which sits easy 10 min walk away. Bharat Mandir too is within a walking distance. The view from the restaurant upstairs also commanded a great view of the Ghat and the mountains in the back. The hotel’s view may be in a bit urban situation, compared to other accommodation options close to Ram Jhula and Geeta Bhawan, but has the advantage of the motor accessibility and ideal for guests not looking to immerse themselves in yoga sessions in ashram’s. I wish the rooftop was better arranged for guest access, since the place looks more like a vacant staff quarter.

Make sure you have a room with a view of the river. Or you could end up with a view of the rubbish dump on the other side of the hotel. Overall, the Ellbee is a good, comfortable place to rest your head. There is a good restaurant with amazing views. It’s a little far from the main attractions, but the Ganga is on your door step and you can walk along the banks to the evening Aarti. My only major gripe is that the Housekeeping was a little lacking. having said that, I would recommend the Ellbee for a short stay.
