Laxman Jhula or Ram Jhula: which side of Rishikesh to stay on

Quick answer: Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula are two well-known areas of Rishikesh named after the suspension bridges over the Ganga. If you want to be on the Laxman Jhula side, Hotel Shivanta is on Laxman Jhula Bypass Rd, Tapovan, with Deluxe, Super Deluxe and Family rooms.

Two names you will keep hearing

Visitors usually plan Rishikesh around the Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula areas, both along the Ganga. Which side suits you depends on what you plan to do each day. Before you book, ask our concierge for the current walking or drive time from Hotel Shivanta to the places on your list, because it depends on traffic and the time of day.

Bridge access can change

Access to the bridges has changed over the years, and rules can be updated by the authorities. Check the current situation before you plan a route on foot, and ask us if you are unsure. We would rather tell you than leave you to find out on the day.
