Houseboat Sweet Star In Srinagar

Really pathetic experience of staying in a house boat offered by sweat star owner. They really don't know how to do the hospitality. we were offered a different boat when we reached there for checking in sweat star. Just at the time of check-in, we were told that this is part of the five houseboats of sweat star. With lots of argument as we have no choice, we decided to take the houseboat which was offered in place of sweat star. moreover, the owner lied to us that sweat star is under maintenance and he showed me that it is under maintenance but in the Evening when we again checked in guest were staying in sweat star. As the stay was inclusive of breakfast we were offered only bread butter omlette and khawa . But it was not worth as a complete breakfast and was not value for money. Finally I would like to conclude that it is not recommendable house boat . pls look for other house boat options.

We had a wonderful stay at Houseboat Sweet Star on 20-21 July 2022. Hospitality of Sirajuddin and family was excellent. Wishing them all the best. Would recommend a stay in HSS to our friends n relatives going to Srinagar.

Booked houseboat sweet star for one night. Before going to Srinagar we repeatedly confirmed our booking with them. When we reached the place, they told us the owner has five boat on river Jhelum including sweet star. Because sweet star is full. He want us to stay in Houseboat Karima. Above rating is given according to karima, not for sweet star. These people do double talking very much. They said there is no customer in Sweet star, as it is in maintenance. But while having our evening walk on the Karima boat deck. We noticed other tourist coming to sweet star.

In Srinagar, Gulmarg, sonmarg and Pehalgham. Lying and smooth talking is so much prevalent. You need to shield yourself from that. They charge you so much but in return they gave you very low service. The breakfast they provided to us just egg bread and kahwa. Price for one night stay with breakfast was 3000. Washroom was not clean specially pot.
Pathetic service, rude people and non recommendable. ( original review)

Counter reply to owner's remark- Mr Arif this is the reply to your counter comment on my review. We called repeatedly before coming to confirm our booking. Ambiguity was shown from your side. If on call you would have informed us that there has been construction going on houseboat Sweetstar. We would have tried to find other arrangements or cancelled the staying at any houseboat altogether. Room was spacious, but toilet pot and bathtub was very unclean. We shared this concern with your father. I would like to invite you to Delhi because we don't give omelette bread for Rupees 3000 for room plus breakfast.
If we have gotten the service we hoped from you guys. I would have gladly written a positive comments. Thank you very much for your oh so service.

We stayed 3 nights at the Sweet Star and had a wonderful stay at this lovely houseboat. The location is a bit far from the main areas but everything you need is easy to reach. The houseboat has a nice atmosphere, clean and cosy rooms and the homemade food was very tasty. The hospitality of this kind family is great. Thanks a lot.

We stayed for four nights @ Houseboat Sweet Star. The place is very well maintained. Neat and clean rooms. The staffs are very helpful and attended to all our needs with a smiling face. Food was very tasty. Overall had a very pleasant and comfortable stay. Very Excellent service.

It's really Amazing. I stayed here one week. Siraj Bhai is so cooperative. His food & service is extraordinary. From my side 5/5🌟.

Service was good but they have taken too much commission from us as when we talked to the driver they told them the right amount which was less than the amount they said...and don't go for this houseboat it was situated in outer area of sringar in which you will face problem

Nice arrangement, food was good and boat house owner are very good and cooperative.
Value for money.
