Stayed at this hotel on Temple Road, McLeod Ganj in January end 2026 and honestly had a very nice experience. Food was really good. The balcony view was amazing — you can see Dharamshala and snow-covered mountains, which felt super peaceful. The place is calm and quiet but still very close to the main square and Dalai Lama Temple, so location is perfect. Mrs Sonia at the reception was very welcoming and kind, made us feel comfortable right from the start. Overall, a simple, peaceful stay with great views and good food.

The property is perfectly located near the McLeod Gang monastery and a short walk to all the outdoor shops. The views from the rooms are stellar, and the staff is so courteous and professional. Sonya, the concierge manager is really fantastic and makes you feel like a special guest at this truly beautiful hotel. Highly recommended!

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.

Sub par hotel, not worth the higher price

Great location in Mcleodganj but expensive by India standards with many better options around and far friendlier owners around many properties in the area. I stayed a week beyond my online stay because of volunteering work near the Dalai Lama temple. The staff working were unwilling to bargain on the price of the room, never cleaned the room after multiple requests during my stay for simple things like a new sheet or something of the sort.

J'ai pu réservé un taxi pour mon trajet vers l'aéroport 1000INR. La propreté du lit, des draps pourraient encore être amélioré. La salle de bain et toilettes étaient propres.

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 !
