Haridwar, Indian Himalayas, India

If you’re staying in Haridwar, you will want to be close to the centre of the action near the ghats. And no smart hotel in town occupies a position as plum as this. The covered rear terrace of the marble-lined mansion literally opens straight on to the jade-green waters of the Ganges as they flow across the plains. The ghats, with their constant rounds of ritual activity, are a stone’s throw away. The Haveli Hari Ganga is the first choice in this
bustling pilgrimage town for traditional atmosphere and modern comforts.
