Simple stay. Deep practice. Real experience
Accommodation and Yoga Ashram Facility
At Patanjali International Yoga Foundation (PIYF), we provide clean and calm living spaces for our yoga students. The idea is simple—we want your stay to feel supported, grounded, and easy, so that you can focus on what really matters: your inner growth.
This is not a hotel, so don't expect luxury. It's a yoga ashram and retreat space. We keep things basic, clean, and spiritual. That's the environment we’ve created—and most students find it more peaceful than anything they’ve known before.
Also, just so there’s no confusion: Patanjali International Yoga Foundation in Rishikesh is a standalone institute. We’re not connected to any other group or organisation that may sound similar. Always double-check that you're in the right place before you book.
What’s Included in the Stay?
You can choose between shared or private rooms, based on availability. All rooms come with an attached bathroom and hot water.
- We give you soap and toilet paper when you arrive, but after that, you’ll need to buy your own.
- Bring a padlock for your room to keep your belongings safe—just in case.
- We change your bed sheets and towels once a week.
- On each floor, there’s a shared iron, hairdryer, electric kettle, Cup, plates and knife with spoon that you can use.
It’s not fancy—but it’s real. The energy here supports rest, silence, and clarity. And for many, that’s the best part.

Some Basic Rules (Please Read)
Living in an ashram means living with respect and awareness. So we do have a few rules:
- Main gate is open from 6:30 AM to 9:30 PM
- Please wear simple, modest clothing—white yoga clothes are best

Important on Ethics & Behavior
Any kind of inappropriate or sexual behavior—even if it seems mutual—is not allowed. That includes flirting, physical contact, or suggestive language. We take this very seriously. Anyone breaking this will be asked to leave immediately, no discussion, no refund.
“This isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a space to return to yourself.”

Aadi Yogi Lord SHIVA
Shiva is The Highest Auspicious Energy of the Universe. He is the eternal one who gave birth to himself, he has no begining or end. He knows all. He is pure consciousness, the creator of time, all-powerful, all-knowing.
Sage Patanjali
Patanjali describes the third limb of yoga, which is the asana, as "Sthiram, Sukham Asanam" - Mean asana the position should be comfortable and stable, that is all the asana is about. Because "comfort" is such a misused word, maybe a closer word to "sukha" in English would be "ease."
Patanjali Systems
During our trainings we follow the techniques, which are described in Sanskrit sources and textbooks. Following GURUKUL training system with the central point of constant deep connection of the Master and students.
