5-star hotels in Haridwar
This shortlist gathers the 5-star hotels and homestays in Haridwar, from riverside addresses near the centre to resorts out on the bypass. It is for travellers who want the city's top class of stay while visiting a place known for the Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri.
Staying in Haridwar
Haridwar is one of Hinduism's seven holiest cities, and its centre is built around Har Ki Pauri, where the Ganga Aarti is held each evening around sunset. Temples such as Mansa Devi and Chandi Devi can be reached by cable car or taxi, and the ghat area is easy to explore on foot. This shortlist spans that centre and the roads leading out of it.
The hotels sit in different parts of the city rather than one quarter. Pilibhit House Haridwar IHCL SeleQtions is 0.4 km from the centre in Sharvan Nath Nagar, with Gangabhumi Homestay close at 3.8 km and Riverside Bliss at 3.9 km. Further out are The Aurum Park Haridwar, Villasita and Pinaka Hotels & Resorts on the bypass and Shyampur side, Hyatt Place Haridwar near the toll plaza, and The Yakshaa Neelkanth out on the Neelkanth Mahadev Temple Road. Couples drawn to the aarti, families wanting pools and space, and business travellers using the highway will each find something here.
