Property is located at the bottom of a lane and so is quite quiet. It has a nclean outdoor swimming pool. The food in the hotel is standard and across the lane is the Pure Soul restaurant that has good food and many kinds of fruit drinks; it is operated by the same management. All around excellent Indian-standard. Recommended.

I’ve stayed at Dewa several times and find it’s it’s the perfect Rishikesh hotel - quiet but walking distance to everything, very comfortable space, great food, and I love the adjacent organic cafe. Staff is superb, so helpful & kind! I’d suggest getting a Mountain view room.

Great staff, peaceful home base in Rishikesh
We were recommended the hotel from friends of the owner, so we had excellent treatment from the friendly staff. We were there for trekking and outdoor activities (Dewa Adventures), so we didn't experience much of Rishikesh's spiritual attractions, but we enjoyed the ayurvedic treatments at the in house spa, and the yoga facilities with free morning classes are nice. The organic cafe next door and the in house Indian restaurant have high standards of hygiene, the breakfast is a combination of Indian and international; NB all vegetarian. While it's not a luxury hotel, the prices are reasonable, and the amenities, including a pool, are pleasant. Easy 15 minute walk to town (Laxman Jhula bridge), but very quiet and peaceful at night. Wifi could be stronger/more reliable on the 3rd floor.

A fabulous stay in Rishikesh. Gorgeous views from my room and the garden terrace, attached to a great restaurant. Location was just a short walk (5-7 mins) down to Lakshman Jhula, markets and more. Friendly and helpful staff, I will stay there again when in Rishikesh.

very nice
great location, friendly staff, laundry service was cheap, and the view was beautiful. The room service food was mediocre and not enough bottles of water were provided. If you are looking for a spa type of experience this would be a good place, did not dabble in that area but there was many spa treatments available.

Beautiful mountain retreat
We spent 4 days at the Dewa Retreat hotel and had a wonderful time. The staff were so polite and accommodating to all our needs. The mountain view rooms with balcony were worth the extra cost. There were options for breakfast and all food was fresh and healthy. The pool area and grounds were kept clean and tidy with maintenance staff available and when there was a problem with our air conditioning they resolved it as quickly as possible. We highly recommend this hotel and hope one day to return .

Clean hotel not too far from Laxman Jhoola
The restaurants worked quite well, decent food in both the restaurants. The staff was helpful. However, neither the wifi nor their card readers worked reliably. We ended up creating our own hot-spot to get communication established with family. Also, we had to pay the room rent in cash because they could not read our credit/debit cards. The shower area also left a lot to be desired, water collected, it seems the drains were clogged.

Simple, elegant hotel with great service
The Dewa Retreat is a simple and elegant hotel with perhaps the best service we received while traveling through India. They were able to arrange after-hour massages for us, give us very informative and detailed directions and suggestions of what to do in Rishikesh, book us a car to the rail station in Haridwar... I could go on and on. The hotel's immediate neighborhood is not perfect but is easy walking distance to the Lakshman Jhula, where there are plenty of cafes with great views. It is also near a tuk tuk stand on the main road which provides easy access to other parts of Rishikesh.

Avoid this Hotel especially if you are Indian
I booked a Deluxe Suite (top category) in this hotel a month and a half in advance and had requested for a room with a view (top floor) but on arrival was given a room on 1st floor (lowest) instead sighting reasons of rooms being booked, that's absolutely strange! Guess best rooms are meant only for Foreigners or White Skinned unless the hotel is empty. Neighborhood is Dodgy and Ambiance is just ok. Hotel arranged for white water rafting next day which was good but asked me to move to another room instead as they had a booking to fill and wouldn't extend my stay by an hour in the same room which is ok. But the room I was moved to, was a much lower category and did not have basic amenities like towels/toiletries, Bad Bad customer service and no consideration given that I was accompanied by old parents! Internet access/password is weird. Breakfast is below average; made bland as per Foreign taste, just a handful items and not much of a spread. Avoid this place if possible. I guess I deserved a better service as I did pay in full and didn't stay for Free! I might sound racist but that's how I felt during my stay even though I was in my own country!
