About Banquet Hall
A Riverside Setting for Memorable Events
The Banquet Hall at Amatra By The Ganges brings together the serenity of the Ganges riverfront with a dedicated event space designed to host celebrations and gatherings of genuine significance. Located in Shyampur on the outskirts of Haridwar, Uttarakhand, the resort occupies a rare position on the banks of one of India's most revered rivers, lending every event held here a backdrop that few venues in the region can match. The hall itself offers a self-contained environment where guests can move seamlessly between an elegantly appointed interior and the resort's outdoor riverside grounds, making it equally suited to intimate occasions and larger social gatherings.
The character of the space reflects the resort's broader philosophy of blending natural surroundings with thoughtful hospitality. Warm interiors, attentive service, and the ambient presence of the Ganges just beyond the property create an atmosphere that feels both grounded and celebratory — a combination that resonates strongly with couples planning destination weddings, families marking milestone events, and corporate groups seeking a retreat-style meeting environment away from the noise of a city centre.
Events & Occasions
The Banquet Hall at Amatra By The Ganges is well suited to a range of event formats. Destination weddings and pre-wedding functions — including mehendi, sangeet, and haldi ceremonies — are among the most popular bookings, with the riverside setting adding natural grandeur to traditional rituals. The space also accommodates social celebrations such as anniversary dinners, birthday gatherings, and family reunions, where the resort's residential facilities allow out-of-town guests to stay on-site throughout the festivities.
Corporate events benefit from the venue's retreat-like location in Shyampur, which provides the focus and separation from everyday distractions that productive off-sites, leadership summits, and team-building programmes require. The combination of a dedicated event hall and the resort's outdoor areas means that multi-session formats — plenary gatherings followed by al fresco networking, for example — can be arranged without guests needing to leave the property.
Location & Accessibility
Amatra By The Ganges sits in Shyampur, a quieter stretch of the Haridwar district that keeps guests close to the spiritual and cultural energy of Haridwar while offering the privacy and open space that a riverside resort demands. Haridwar itself is one of Uttarakhand's most visited destinations, drawing visitors year-round and well connected by road and rail. Haridwar Railway Station, a major junction on the Northern Railway network, provides direct links from Delhi and other cities across northern India, making the resort accessible for guests travelling without a car. The Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun further broadens access for guests flying in from other parts of the country.
For event planners, the Shyampur location means that guests arriving from Delhi or other NCR cities can reach the property within a manageable drive, while the relatively unhurried pace of the surroundings ensures that the event itself unfolds without the logistical pressures of an urban venue. The resort's position on the Ganges also allows for optional riverside experiences — ghats, Ganga Aarti attendance — that add a layer of cultural depth to any event itinerary.
