About the property:

The holy river flowing by your side, orchards of mangoes and lychees oozing out their succulent aromas and the stillness of the mountains giving you the much needed solace. Well, we are hinting at Glasshouse on the Ganges in Rishikesh, which is a dreamlike place designed for travellers seeking offbeat experiences.But, there is more to Glasshouse on the Ganges resort. It’s not just an abode for nature lovers. Yes, you will hear the birds singing every once in a while and a butterfly or two prancing around. However, you will also get to enjoy a fair bit of ‘flamboyance’ that comes as a heritage of the resort. The Maharajas of Tehri Garhwal owned the property and the vicinity once, the essence of which is very much evident in its architecture and furnishings. The rooms have classy and subtle décor. Each room is distinctive and has lots of character. And, you are always close to the resonance of river.The Glasshouse on the Ganges also has its own private sand beach, which entices you for those ‘lazy-do-nothing’ hours. Besides, you have lots to explore about Rishikesh – its enigmatic temples and a bunch of adventure activities.So, get mesmerized by the Ganges.
