Surrounded by lotuses, Chinar houseboat is moored on the beautiful Dal Lake in the heart of the verdant Kashmir Valley, surrounded by the pristine peaks of the Himalayas.

he houseboat sits amidst the beauty of nature and enjoys breathtaking views of the snow covered peaks of the Pir Panjal mountains. 
The richness of history is also present, silently proclaiming the Valley’s tradition of tolerance: distant silhouettes of the hilltop temple founded by the famous philosopher-saint Adi Shankara in the eighth century and the impressive sixteenth century fort built by the Mughal Emperor, Akbar the Great can both be seen from the boat. 

Chinar brings this traditional concept of a residential houseboat into the modern era, while losing none of the charm of history. Spacious and stylish, it has lavishly furnished four en-suite bedrooms. There is a communal sitting and dining room, with ample space for relaxing. By day you can watch life go by on the lake at the same unhurried pace it has done for centuries; at night you can dine under the endless canopy of brilliant stars, lulled by the gently lapping water. 

Staying on Chinar houseboat is a distinctive experience for any discerning visitor who values luxury, fine facilities with fantastic view and we will make sure that your stay here is a memorable one.
