On our trip to India back in February, we managed to find a couple of days to visit Amritsar. We had already booked this hotel before we reached amritsar and we were given a pickup. We remember that the cab we booked was not able to pick us up and the owner of the hotel sent his personal car to... More

We visited Amritsar at the end of April. Earlier I was very confused with all the hotels poping up in travel portals and their reviews not being the best in TripAdvisor. Then I decided to do some research and opted for this 1st Ranked (at that time) hotel in TripAdvisor. I visited the hotel's website directly by finding it on... More

This place is a couple of minute's walk from the Golden Temple. We were able to visit at sunset so easily and return to the hotel without the hassle of travelling any distance. The rooms are small, but have everything you need, very comfortable, spotlessly clean, and the staff were all very helpful. The owner in particular is especially friendly... More

I had visited the hotel in the month of September 2011.. 3nights & 4 days package... Thank to reviews posted on Tripadvisor, I made a good choice. we have booked 2 super deluxe rooms. Pick up was arranged for us by the hotel staff. I liked: Pick up Early morning Breakfast - Amritsari kulcha (must have) Good Cleanliness & hygiene... More

As other reviews mention, the hotel is very close to the Temple (about 5 minutes) which makes it easy to get there for very early in morning or multiple times a day.

Good location - about a 5 minutes walk to the Golden Temple- is the main positive about this hotel. They do not have a kitchen and order food from outside. The hotel service staff is good. Found them to be handicapped in their ability to organise good vehicles for either the drive to Wagah Border or elsewhere as them seem... More

We decided to visit Amritsar back in Feb, 2012. After much delibration and searching through TripAdvisor and other websites, I decided to book Hotel Akaal Residency. And, it was worth the effort. I got in contact with the owner of the hotel who personally called me to offer a room of Highest category with a complete package of Wagah Border... More
