Houseboats in Jammu and Kashmir

"I recently stayed at Welcomhotel Katra for two nights. While the overall experience was pleasant, there were a few things that could definitely be improved. To start with, the check-in process was disappointing. Although I arrived about 60 minutes later than expected, the hotel still took another 30–35 minutes to hand over the room keys, which wasn’t a great start. The room provided was comfortable, but I was a bit let down again as I had specifically requested a room with a good view — unfortunately, that wasn’t fulfilled. However, as my stay progressed, the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff made a real difference. I spent most of my time at the property and would still recommend this hotel primarily because of the amazing staff. Everyone was polite and helpful — so much so that if I start naming people, I’ll have to mention almost everyone! Still, I must give a special mention to Mr.Jagdev, who stood out with his humility and dedication. His service truly made a mark. The chef Mr Ankit also deserves appreciation — every meal was cooked to perfection and exactly as per our preferences. To sum it up, no hotel is perfect, and this one isn’t either. But if you’re looking for a peaceful, staff-friendly place in Katra, this is a good pick — you won’t regret it. I would just request the management to introduce more in-house activities to keep guests engaged during their stay."

"The property is 100m from station. However, my recommendation if property can arrange a pickup facility for the guest after a long journey. With luggage it was a task to walk to the hotel. When asked to arrange for a pickup, staff mentioned we don’t provide. A mini golf cart can be a good option. Think about it. "

"Great location, great staff. Large property and thus a little wait time on the caddy pickup to get across but every person on the staff had the quintessential pahadi charm and generosity. Wonderful views thanks to Varun dev (clouds and light rain) sticking around during our stay. The pandola (sky high 3KM LONG cable car) crossing over the mountain ranges was a scary but exciting experience. They only have 15 rooms so it feels very exclusive. The food was great, even if surprisingly pricey. The suites are very spacious. "
