    Nowhere to hang towels, no hook in the bathroom or bedroom. When I put towels to dry on a chair, the mould made black marks on it. The 2 chairs in the room smell musky and it made the whole room very smelly. It was the rainy season so everything got damp and unfortunately after staying for 8days all our stuff got mouldy. No bin in the room. The pressure shower was sometimes very weak, and once, we had no water at all from 6 p.m. until the morning. This can be a lovely place to stay, it just needs a few things to improve :)

    A big room with a lovely view. A big comfortable bed. The care taker was nice and smiley.

    ! Rooms were comfortable and big. The attention of the staff is excellent, always available to help and accommodate. We booked initially for a few days but ended up staying the entire week we were in Mcleodganj. The staircase to get there might be inconvenient for some people but for us it was just fine, only 5 minutes walk up to one of the main roads with cafes and restaurants nearby. I highly recommend the room with the view to the valley, it's stunning!

    The steep steps going down to get there, but you get used to them.

    It's in a good location, not too far from cafes & the Dalai Lama Temple Complex. Great views from the room of the Himslayan hills. Very quiet at night.

    There are a lot of steps so something to take into consideration if you have luggage. Although, the staff helped me which was really kind.

    The view is fabulous. The blankets were colourful and warm. The staff were very accommodating and helpful.

    It's a bit hard to find, hidden in dark alleys below the main road. There are many steps down so bear that in mind if you have lot of luggage.

    Really amazing view. The host was nice and welcoming. Very quiet for McLeod Ganj! You get away from the busy streets and can enjoy the mountains.

    We had no cups/glasses and had to use our own padlock to lock the door, hence the drop of one point (but don’t let this put you off).

    The most amazing views from the Mountain View room. It was clean, large, bright and airy. The staff were friendly and helped us to organise our onwards taxi. We did find it a little difficult to find, so a tip for others. The steps are opposite Arabica Bakery and Cafe

    There's no proper check-in desk, so I sometimes had to search around the hostel a bit to find the staff if I needed to ask something. I can see how this would make some people feel unsafe, but I (solo male traveller) never felt uncomfortable. And, the staff were always very responsive on WhatsApp.

    The room was clean and cozy with, as you'd expect, a golden view of upper McLeod Ganj and the mountains beyond. The staircase down to the hostel was not as bad as many people have suggested, considering that the entire city is built on a slope and you'll be climbing up and down hills to get anywhere! It's just part of life here. The room was (mostly) very quiet, with strong and stable wifi and filter water available so I didn't have to keep buying water bottles. I would definitely stay here again.

    Just to note there is no cafe/restaurant in the hotel but lots of really nice cafes close by.

    They definitely named the hotel well. The view is incredible from the room. We arrived at night and had an amazing surprise when we opened the curtains in the morning! Room was big, clean and comfortable.

    Nothing, we absolutely loved it

    The most valuable thing of the property is the privilege views to the mountains and the valley. We originally booked the room with balcony, which we didn’t realise prior arrival that doesn’t have a view. However, the manager kindly offered us an upgrade to the Mountain View room as soon as it was available, which we absolutely loved, and encouraged us to extend our stay for 3 more nights. They also provide towels, toiletries, and a kettle. Their location is nice and quite away from the crowds and noisy streets, although you might hear some dogs barking in the middle of the night, but that didn’t affected us much. Their location is also perfect in my opinion is you want to stroll around to Dharmakot or to the Dalai Lama temple. The facilities were clean and the staff was always helpful and respectful, we totally recommend this place to anyone. Shower has hot water. Many people complains about the 100 steps down/up from the property to the Main Street, but it is just a small price for the beautiful views and quite area. Maybe for people with big luggage it will be slightly more challenging but I am also sure that the hotel staff would gladly help you if requested.

    Windows not sound proof, i found the barking of stray dog at night uncomfortable. Other review says the stairs to go to the hotel are horrible, and if you have a suitcase it might be, but honestly the whole city is like that (welcome to the mountains) and it takes just one minute to go to the main road

    Very nice view, hotel far from the road (thanks to the 100 stairs), confortable bed, very close to the core of McLoed Ganj.
