“Sukoon is the first amongst equals on the Dal Lake. A comparatively new property they employ green credentials making it a stylish and sustainable stay. Intricately carved Kashmiri woodwork covers the walls and rooms feature bright pop colours, plus luxury bathrooms. There is a rooftop restaurant. ”

SUKOON HOUSEBOAT, DAL LAKE, KASHMIR

Back in Srinagar we transferred for our last night to Sukoon, a houseboat that looked from its fretworked exterior much like the Royal, but was decorated inside in a sparer, more modern style and fitted with air-con and high-pressure showers. Both boats were cedar-panelled and surrounded by water-lilies.
