My husband and I visited Rishikesh last October, 2012. We were keen on white water rafting - it was our first time! Prashant, a friend suggested the MHE - as they were known for their safety standards. Kushal, Akshay (& Salil) were very patient and resourceful in helping us plan our vacation. They even gave us inputs on other places... More

We stayed at Aaranyya in May. Its a nice property with excellent staff. Food is fantastic. Their activity teams are also great. However, through the night we saw power cuts and somehow the generators didnt work the way they should have.

Since ours was a sudden weekend trip we reached Shivpuri without prior booking and decided to stay overnight there instead of the crowded Rishikesh. Since the other resorts were booked we hit this by chance. This is the first resort after Rishikesh. On arrival the staff was friendly, there is a nice lawn in front and the rooms are not... More

Our family arranged for a river rafting trip with Mercury Himalayan Explorations in Rishikesh, and since their beach camp was closed they recommended we stay at Aaranyya. We had some trouble finding the place, and were a little disconcerted by the appearance outside the gates along the wall, but the grounds were well kept and the rooms were very nice.... More

As a traveler i have traveled a lot, but had a great unique experience here, at Aaranyya. The staff and location was perfect for a get away from the city. Had fun with all the activities like rafting rock climbing and rappeling.
