Ventilation was not good in our room. Food was really good. Staff was also accommodating. Overall it's not a bad place to book if you get a good room with mountain view from room.

worst possible experience with Hotels.com

Absolutely terrible place to book your stay. the pics added by hotels.com is NOT what you get in reality. On top of it hotels.com was not helpful at all in helping to resolve the matter . this is the last time i will be using their services. they have overcharged me for the room as well as we enquired with the hotel when we reached there and the room was available much cheaper than what we got from hotels.com. and they advertise it as the best deals available which is literally fraud !

Greatly situated and clean room

The hotel is situated centrally to the market and restaurants by short uphill walk of 10 minutes. The room booked was not with a view but the team moved us for the second and third nights with an adjusted rate. Staff is very friendly and the view from room with a balcony is superb. Will return.

Pros: Staff behaviour is good. Cons: 1) Delayed restaurant service. 2) Buffet breakfast was mentioned in itinerary. But buffet not provided. Asked us to order as per choice and every single ordering was taking at least 30 minutes to serve. Eventually, lost the interest. 3) Expedia MUST look into providing online options to guests when it was properly mentioned that we are 4. We were being offered a double bedded room with no balcony and windows with wall view. I had no choice but to ask for a change in room options. Hotel had claimed for Rs.3000 extra for two days which I have paid as was having none other alternatives. Could not understand why Expedia is offering the double bedded room option when it is clearly written that we are 4. 4) Expedia May kindly emphasis on professionalism. Thanks

Room with the balcony facing the main road. Very noisy and dogs barking at night. My room 201 on the second floor again with family staying with kids screaming and slamming the doors. Breakfast was all vegetarian with very limited choice and opened late as I was In Dharamshala specifically for my mediation.

Himalayan gem!!!

The views from the dining area were amazing as I am sure they are from the front rooms overlooking the Himalayas to the valley floor. The staff were king and professional and their English was adequate enough for all my wants and needs. Good people!!!

Took us long time to find the hotel. Lots of No entry roads along the path. Its situated at the very top of hill so took time to reach. Absolutely no toilet paper available in hotel. But rooms were as pictured and staff was good. Gave us choice of tea/coffee welcome drink.
