  • Testimonials

    • We enjoyed our stay here immensely. The biggest plus of Amritasthanam apart from the nature, clean rooms etc. is Ganga herself. You can even make introverts like me mix in a crowd. Love this place and will come back here.

    • Dear Ganga, The view from Amritasthanam is as beautiful as your outlook on life. Thank you for everything and all the best.

    • This was one of the best stays of my life. The infinite greenery, the sweet smell of spices in the morning, the sense of freedom that this place gives are just amazing…. But most of all, I really enjoyed your company and your view of life. This was by far the best part.
