A homestay in Srinagar is the warmest way to see Kashmir, and Happy Jacks Tours and Travels connects you with genuine local families who love to host. Instead of a standard hotel room, you share a Kashmiri home, wake up to fresh noon chai and learn the valley from people who have lived here for generations. Our host families are chosen for their warmth, clean rooms and honest hospitality, and we confirm every stay on WhatsApp so you know your hosts before you arrive. You can join in the kitchen, hear local stories and taste home cooked wazwan that no restaurant fully matches. Homestays also sit in real neighbourhoods, giving you a slower, more personal side of Srinagar away from the tourist rush. Tell us your dates and comfort needs, and we will match you with a family stay that feels like home.
A homestay gives you more than a bed. It gives you people, food and stories you carry home. Here is what makes it special.
Every family is different, but our vetted homestays share a common standard. Here is what a typical stay looks like.
