Quick Answer
The most romantic stays in Kashmir are a lake-view room in Srinagar (7 hotels from ₹2,898 a night), one night on a luxury houseboat on Dal or Nigeen Lake (from ₹3,780 a night), and a mountain-view room with heating in Gulmarg or Pahalgam. For a honeymoon room, ask for the view, room heating from October to March, and, on a houseboat, the bedroom at the lake end.
