This place is very neat and clean. Here food is very delicious (Indian and Western dishes). All the rooms front overlooking Maa Ganges. Wake up early morning and enjoy the peace and nature from your room balcony. Mostly westerners, who come for Yoga training, stay here.

I went to Rishikesh in January 2013, low season. But the staff and this enviroment gave me a great time. At Bhandari Swiss cottage you can find a great view, german bakery with great food and a lot of options, cheap rooms and quiet and calm place.

We stayed at Bhandari Swiss Cottage for three nights in November. We had the luxury suite at the very top of the hotel (which I am pretty sure is the one in the photo here). It was big and comfortable enough. Not a luxury but trust me, from the looks of Rishikesh, you could do far, far worse! The mattress... More

We stayed here December 2011 for a few days. The rooms are priced differently depending on which floor you stay and some are more basic than others. We chose a mid price room which was fairly clean and one, maybe two floors up. The bathroom could have been cleaner and nothing the regular use of strong bleach on the sink,... More

We, a couple, stayed in the Bhandari Swiss cottage a month ago. The place is fine with nice views and a great restaurant. Stuff attitude was generally fine, though some of them seems to be quite arrogant and pushy. Rooms-wise they are extending their rooms capacity, while *still* accommodating people almost inside the construction area which is located on one... More

It was so nice to arrive at the Bhandari Swiss Cottage after a long journey and discover the tranquillity of the place. The staff were really lovely and friendly and the surroundings on the hill side were beautiful. The only room that was available was actually one of the more expensive ones on the top floor. We didn't mind too... More

We stayed 5 nights in this hotel in August 2012. Sadly we got such a bad luck..not only it was the raining season, which means closing time for rafting and trekking, but also we were badly sick. Nevertheless, we appreciated the comfortable athmosphere of Bandaari Swiss. It’s located on the top of High Bank side, so the chaos and the... More

This is a late review, we stayed there last 2009. I was informed that the accommodation standard in India is really below the standard rating. It is not a guarantee to get 3-star hotel to have a decent room, to be safe, get 4-star hotel at least. So when we arrived in Rishikesh, we needed to stay at a guesthouse... More

Located away from the hustle of the city almost 2 levels above the main city and ghats, the Swiss cottage seemed to us the perfect setting for a relaxed mystic stay. The view from the balconies was good, so was the setting of the rooms with lot of greenery and space, however our stay turned out to be a not... More
