“For a small fee, the rooftop here offers what seems like the highest vantage point for the evening Aarti ceremony; the panoramic view sweeps across the Ganges, capturing both the ceremony and the river filled with spectator boats. While I can't speak to the accommodations, the Divine Ganga restaurant, with its equally impressive views, certainly makes a case for lingering longer. That rooftop view alone makes it worthwhile.”
