Prakriti-The Retreat

Prakriti is a superb place to stay in Harsil - Gangotri belt. It has everything we can ask for: good rooms, great food, excellent staff, outstanding location. They have ample parking space as well as driver amenities. Wife and I stayed there for three nights in October 2024 and had very satisfying stay. I recommend them highly and will stay there again whenever I visit this part of the country.

This resort has everything: location, comfort, peace and quiet, attentive staff, excellent vegetarian cuisine, and lovely views. We stayed four nights, with two adjoining rooms and a shared balcony between the two rooms overlooking the river. This gave us a lovely shared space that was private, so we sat out and chatted most evenings with the river flowing by below. The staff went out of their way to make our stay comfortable, and even cooked us meals more to our taste (reduced salt and lots of spice) - truly delicious! Overall, it was a memorable experience and we hope to come again soon.

Whatever I write about this place, the words won’t do justice. Each and every member of this resort is helpful and very dedicated in addressing even the tiniest concerns of the clients. The view from my room was very beautiful, I felt like I was in heaven.

PROS:Good location, smooth service, friendly and efficient staff, tasty food, nicely appointed rooms and a wonderful view. We stayed 3 nights. Suggestions: Do place food cards in front of the chaffing dishes.. That would prevent guests from opening and reopening the lid to check what's inside. Also cools the food down. We did mention this to the staff. The white board at the entrance of the reception is always blank although it has some Pooja samagri kept below. Not sure what is the purpose. Im not sure if you offer room cleaning / bed making everyday/occasionally . It wasn't offered and we didn't ask but it would be nice if dust bins etc were cleared. Once we left the rooms there seems to be a system where the main switch of the room situated outside the room is turned off without informing the guest. We returned to find no power and thought that there was no main supply hence sat in the room without electricity till evening. Only when we complained did someone come over and turned on the switch situated outside the room! These are not complaints but mere observations. The staff more than made up by being accommodative and offering great service Thanks for a wonderful stay

I highly recommend Prakriti. The setting was incredibly beautiful, with views from every room, right on the river with the mountains overlooking. The food was fantastic and the staff very kind and eager to provide a fun and restorative experience. It was a perfect jumping off place for the trek from Gangotri to Gomukh and beyond. Highly recommend.

Nestled beside the beautiful Ganga, the property is a treat for all the senses. This is aptly located after Harsil. Finding a riverside property seemed like a stroke of luck! The rooms are spacious and incredibly well-lit. The staff helped us with our luggage. The beds are comfortable and everything is spotless! The washrooms are clean and kudos to the staff for keeping the place well-maintained. You get 24*7 hot water and a personal room heater to ward off the cold. We were pretty happy on seeing what was offered. We were welcomed with some of the best tea we have ever had! We ordered the crispiest pakodas you can get, which was the right decision. As a couple, we liked our privacy and our little balcony was the perfect place to sit and relax. We even went to the riverside and meditated for some time. The sound of the gentle river was the most rejuvenating experience for me. The buffet dinner was delectable with multiple choices! We thoroughly enjoyed the food. They have an elaborate menu and you even get room service! The staff there is super friendly and helpful. The staff at any place can make or break your trip. I loved my stay and will certainly come again! This is now my favorite place in the entire Harsil Valley. Thank you guys!
