Gomukh Hotel Uttarkashi

Location of Hotel is less than 5minute walk from bus stop, in the main part of town. Kashi Vishwanath Temple is about 10minute walk. Double room is good in size but with a bit less extra space than usual hotel rooms and bathroom is compact. We did not mind at all as the hotel provided what we needed for our stay - a good place to rest. Staff was very helpful. The Manager, Swapnil, was very good in helping us out with our requests and was very responsive. Very grateful that they let us leave our big bags in between our stay as we visited another town.

Breakfast was included in our stay but it seems that the kitchen/restaurant was not in action. We did not mind as there are other places we got good food.

Swapnil is a very helpful host, and during the stay as well as after that, he assisted me on a couple of issues. Had booked a single room, however he had handed over the keys for a double without any special requests. The room and linen were neat, and didn't have any complaints with the bathroom.

The only couple of issues I faced were first, with the room service where request for tea on arrival wasn't fulfilled for more than half an hour, and I had to go down to the reception to avail it. Second, the place is not easily accessible from the main road, and had to move my two wheeler on multiple occasions in the narrow ally to facilitate shops and some construction work going on which was quite inconvenient.

The room was exceedingly comfortable. They supplied me with everything I needed. Staff was very nice and helpful. And conveniently located next to bus station.

Nothing

The behavior of staff and the owners was friendly, and the location was good. Uttarkashi main market was only a 2-min walk from the hotel.

Given the price, it was a very small basic room like a tourist lodge and not a hotel. The wash basin in the bathroom, bed linens, and towels were not clean. We were very tired, and it was only a matter of one night, so we adjusted. There is only one charging point, and that too was placed very high on the wall. So, we had to do some 'jugar' using a chair and our trolleys so that mobiles could be plugged in, but it was risky. Basic amenity like an electric kettle was missing in the room. However, they provided it when we asked. I am not sure about room rates of hotels in uttarkashi. But hotels in popular Rishikesh Tapovan main market area provide better in-room amenities at this price for a double room. So, the overall experience was disappointing. I hope the owners consider these points and improve on cleanliness and basic amenities. I wish them all the best.
