If you have chosen Grand Mumtaz at Gulmarg (which is indeed good) why choose Mamta at Srinagar? Its a budget hotel. I would suggest you book urself at the Srinagar hotel by the same group Grand Mumtaz or Zaheer continental.

If you havent been to Agra / Jaipur you could opt for one of the cities for last 2 days near Delhi.
