Affordable place to stay in lovely environment

8.0

It has an amazing view and a swimming pool. When I was there it was very quiet, so very peaceful. The rooms have a decent size and good furniture. The balcony is lovely. They allowed me to get into my room early. For breakfast they cook to order, but the selection is more limited than the menu. The area is very quiet but lovely near the Norbulingka institute. There is nothing much to do but if you have to be there, it's great!

The room could have been cleaner, there was lots of dust and ants running around the room. Personnel was not always available to answer questions (especially an absence of English-speaking personnel). This was particularly an issue when there was an extended power outage (affecting the whole region so not their fault). The internet gave up and there was basically no support.

Dharamashala is a very beautiful place to visit and if I was to go again I'd have no hesitation in booking this hotel again. The hotel staff were all great, very friendly and helpful, I really enjoyed my stay.

Nice quiet property in a beautiful place, excellent value for money.

9.0

This is a very nice hotel in a beautiful place: viewing the Himalayas near the beautiful Norbulingka institute and several monasteries. It is much more quiet than the touristy McLeod-Ganj. The hotel has spacious rooms that are clean and have quite soft beds. The hotel also has a swimming pool (it was cold but still nice to have such a large pool to take a dip in!). The breakfast is delivered a la carte (with items such as paratha, porridge, poha, curd and fruit). The portions are big, the quality OK. One of the owners was particularly nice and helpful, the other one was also nice but a bit less helpful. They were even willing to provide me an early breakfast on the day that I had to leave early. Definitely a comfortable place to stay, and excellent value for money. The area is also very nice with lots of nice cafes and restaurant, where you can get nice Tibetan food (and other food as well, of course ;-) )

The wifi was questionable and much of the time I used my cellular data to get access to the internet.
