Hotel Shamyana Opposite Dal Lake

Room allotted to us was located on the corridor between ground and first floor , which I personally felt as if entering a dungeon.. There was power failure all around.. but being in Srinagar , we need not switch ac or fan on. but lighting is problematic. the windows of our room.opened to backside , which is a timber processing shed. and the curtains were not fixed properly and because of that I felt a little loss of privacy . (Rooms on First floor may be ok, as its windows open to Dal Lake) there was no mat outside our bathroom, so it was a difficult experience to walk into bedroom with wet feet. asked reception once to provide one mat, but to no avail. Room is spacious enough for a small family , but not enough to feel cozy. Breakfast didn't open before 10 am and even for that it was only tea and Toast. May be , it is because of the Ramzan period. Other seasons, breakfast may open early (I am guessing) In fact during the April , which we went , staff didn't wake up at least till 8 am.. I had to personally wake them up as I needed to walk a little at 7 am and the gates were locked. Food was great and the place is known for its quality of food. We have no complaints on that side, rather appreciate it greatly.

The rooms are neat and clean. View of Dal lake from the rooms is good. The entrance to the rooms corridor is little bit narrow but the service given by the staff is amazing. They provide only 1-2 choices in breakfast e.g. Bread omelette toast but whatever they provide is very tasty. They have a restaurant on the ground floor. The food they serve is awesome. One more thing they don't provide tea maker, tea bags, milk powder in the room. I recommend this hotel for a pleasant stay.

Very nice and comfortable stay in Hotel Shamyana,staff is very supportive and helpful,best part is it's location ,just opposite of Dal lakegate number 2,,get a mesmerizing view of Dal lake from hotel room,their food was very delicious and authentic,overall excellent experience,wish to stay here again

room charges is too high as compare to service and quality and first day they shifted us in another hotel it's not good for us so many problems faced with shamyana hotel I wouldn't like to stay again in this hotel
