We spoted a group of tourists who have come down all the way from Noida by car, to enjoy the scerenity of this mountain resort .As it is close to Gaurikund , the last bus stop for Kedarnath , pilgrims after visitng Kedarnath can have a night halt at Syalsaur . The GMVN Tourist Bunglow at Chandrapuri Road,Syalsaur  was opened to guests in 1989. Overall there are 18 rooms. Out of which 14 are Deluxe Non-Ac rooms and 4 are Deluxe Ac rooms. There is an in-house pure vegetarian restaurant.
