Worth knowing

Things to know

  • ❄️
    No air conditioning

    Bahaar has ceiling fans only. Srinagar summers are mild for most of May–September, so guests rarely miss it; if AC is non-negotiable, see Tarseel (1A), Nazm (1B), Noor (3A), Chinar (3B) or Sukoon (3C).

  • 🪜
    2nd-floor — stairs only

    Maskan is a three-storey building with no elevator. Bahaar sits on the 2nd floor, two short flights up from the gate. Worth flagging if anyone in the group has mobility constraints.

  • 🌅
    Private balcony

    Bahaar has its own private balcony — every 2BHK at Maskan does. Good for morning chai and an open-window evening.

    I had a lovely stay, the place was nice, cozy, and had all the essential amenities for a comfortable experience. The location was great and the parking was convenient too. The host was absolutely wonderful, friendly, respectful and very responsive throughout the stay. They even took the time to recommend some great places to get tea and coffee which was a really thoughtful touch. Overall a great experience and I’d happily recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming stay!

    A beautiful peaceful located place, I have not seen n Srinagar as being from Ladakh,I travel frequently to Srinagar, the prosperity is located in the centre of city easily accessible to Lal chowk and dal lake and all the Mughal gardens of Kashmir, a real value for what you pay for. The outmost thing about this prosperity is that the host is a super host. I stay with them when ever I come to Kashmir.
