The family was extremely welcoming and heartfelt. They definitely did their best to make me feel as home and enjoy my time, and this is an awesome place to stay, if you want to learn about the culture and customs of Kashmir.nThis is also a great place to make some shopping for souveniers, as there would be many artisans, craftsmen and merchants, who would visit the boat for business, as they're passing by with their boats.nThe food is simple and tasty home food, and the hosts are open for requests, should the guest have something special in their mind. The Kashmiri tea, kahwah, is yummy here!nThe location is brilliant, and in the houseboat terrace you can see (and hear) the whole lake and the surrounding mountains. It is truly magnificent!nThe only issue was that during winter time the heating is done with a wood stove, due to limited power supply in Kashmir, so it may get a little cold in the morning when the fire is out. Also because of the stove, there would be some smoke in the room, depending on the weather, so be prepared to do some laundry after your stay. Obviously, these would not be issues during the summer.nnOverall, a brilliant place to stay, thank you very much! I would definitely recommend this houseboat for everybody.

The family of this company warmly welcomed us from day one. We didn't feel alone for a second. it was a very nice atmosphere. we were helped in every way. we were advised in detail regarding the different parts of the city and could also directly book a driver who took us anywhere we want. they were all very nice and very accommodating. During the whole time we felt very well looked after and hope to be able to travel there again soon. They prepared the food every day fresh and it was delicious too. We were constantly served and we didn't miss anything. The rooms were very clean and tidy. We felt very well and comfortable with staying there. We also had a great view of the lake. It was a nice experience. I highly recommend this houseboat. Anyone who travels to Kashmir should stay there. The people were very helpful and welcomed us really so warm.

I lived such a great experience in Palace Heights House Boats. I was always treated as a special guest. Even under very hard weather for a few days and lots of snow they kept the hostility and the family feeling.nThe accommodation is very good as well as the food. The boat trip is a must to do! I definitely want to go back.nHighly recommended!

For anyone wanting to experience Kashmir at it's most authentic, I recommend staying at Palace Heights Houseboats.nnThe highlight of my visit was the warm welcome I received from Habib and his family. They went to great lengths to make sure I saw everything I should in Srinagar, and were excellent tour guides. The houseboats themselves are beautifully ornate, and offer peaceful views of Dal Lake. I found the area safe enough to run on my ownnnHabib was also able to connect me with a family located in Gund (deeper into the Himalayas), where I stayed an additional three days. Habib and his family did all they could to ensure I enjoyed my stay, and I'm very grateful for their hospitality.
