About Mascot Houseboats

Conveniently located on the crystalline Nagin Lake with cafes and restaurants in the vicinity, Mascot Houseboats are a pioneer hospitality brand since the 1880s. With ambiently-lit imperial suites, each houseboat is nothing short of an art symposium. A seperate library with lake views is juxtaposed to the deck. The property also features a deluxe lounge with chandeliers, divans and dining areas.

    Superb
    Best houseboat in the best location
    Really pleased to have chosen Nigeen Lake, and specifically Mascot. There are many, many, tired old houseboats around, and Mascot clearly stands out as "a cut above", it's in very good condition and benefits from a rooftop viewing lounge, absent on many other boats. The ambience on the boat is refined but cosy, and the team looking after us were top-notch, out steward was immediately receptive to all requests, courteous, experienced and efficient. The cook consistently produced very tasty home cooked dishes. It's worth noting that the bedrooms could use new carpets, and the bathrooms could be freshened up, although everything was fully functional. Our host Mr Showkat was a real gentleman, and his whole mantra was hospitality, guest satisfaction through focus on quality. He organised day trips using trusted personal, and could do this at short notice, allowing us to better adapt our itineraries with the weather, an important consideration this late in the season (November). He has also built a showroom in the garden behind the houseboat, where if you request, he will show you guys collection of finest quality Kashmiri textiles. He's a firm preponent of the new GI government Quality Assurance tags, so you know exactly what you're buying. Mascot Houseboats....a truly superb experience!

    Awesome Experience
    Mascot was the highlight of our Kashmir trip. The houseboat is beyond beautiful. The owner Mr Shaukat, took time to meet us and bonded with us over insightful conversations. The Mascot experience was stunning - with comfort, beauty and excellent customer service. when we were very cold at night, we were sweetly given a hot water bottle. The breakfast and dinner was delicious and fresh. The shikara ride was ethereal. Full marks!
    Nothing to not like

    Beautiful property! We had a wonderful experience . Thanks to Saima and Shaukat for making our stay so memorable. Special shout to the wonderful caretaker who really delivered amazing service! Thank you
    They need to have menu for their dinner arrangements- it led to misunderstanding for us but it was nicely sorted in the end :)

    A better communication and hospitality could have enhanced our experience.
    Food quality, services of attendant,
    -The boatmen were not courteous. We were family of 4 with lots of luggage and wanted 2 boats, but they insisted that only one boat will be available. Then I called the houseboat reception who asked them to provide 2 boats. - On arrival, the lunch was not ready and we were told we didn't inform in advance that we want to each lunch. We felt extremely bad as we were hungry and were not made aware that we had to give order for lunch in advance. Anways, lunch was made quickly thereafter. So problem was not of food availability. Perhaps we could have been communicated better. We didn't feel welcome. -The bathroom door was not closing. We informed the attendant but he couldn't help. -We didn't knew that the houseboat was not on the Dal lake and felt disappointed at the seclusion from the mainstream at the Nageen lake.

    The houseboat location on the serene Nigeen Lake is great for those looking for a peaceful relaxing stay, away from the crowded Dal Lake. I also liked the classy and traditional Mascot houseboat decor. Most importantly, the care and concern showed by Showkat and his staff made our stay as a mother-daughter pair a truly memorable one. They helped us book gondola tickets for Gulmarg, recharged my Kashmir SIM card, cooked delicious Kashmiri food, educated us on carpets and pashminas, and arranged reliable shikara and car transport. A big shout out to Imran our driver who is honest, articulate and took great care of us driving us in Srinagar, Gulmarg and Palhagam.
    Nothing.

    Location is nice .
    Unprofessional, not worth the money it charges. Food is basic. Certainly not a five star.
