The Glasshouse on the Ganges
Rishikesh
A riverside retreat among gardens on the Ganges, with cottages and a pool.
Rishikesh sits where the Ganges leaves the Himalayan foothills, and its stays range from simple ashrams to polished riverside retreats. Yoga and meditation are the town's calling, but the river also draws rafters, and the hills behind have walking trails and waterfalls.
Where to stay
The quieter stretches of the river upstream of the town have the best views, away from the noise of Laxman Jhula. Several retreats combine rooms with yoga classes, spa treatments and Ayurveda.
Good to know
The best times are September to November and February to May. The town is alcohol and meat free in its center, and rafting is closed in the monsoon.
