"Good location, 4 minutes walk to the Leh market. At check out they told me that they couldn't accept credit cards. Since I didn't have enough cash, they gave me their phone number and told me to pay using an application when I get home. Wow, how trustful!!! The only thing I did not like was that there was no heating. They provided a small heater but that wasn't enough. There was plenty of hot water. What I liked the most was the food, so fresh and so good. I could say it is the best hotel...

Top Shey Palace Hotel Reviews

Hotel Namgyal Palace

10/10 Excellent

"Location and property were wonderful"

Stok Palace Heritage

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed one night at Stok Palace, and really enjoyed the whole experience. Their Willow restaurant in the nearby orchard was lovely, we had a beautiful walk up to the Buddha through the town, the traditional dinner in the royal kitchen was delicious and interesting and Rinchen was a wonderful host. And it's hard to beat the palace ramparts as a location for tea or breakfast, with an incredible view over the valley and mountains. We also loved the design of our room, with so much pattern and colour, and would definitely recommend morning prayers with the monk-in-residence. We've never stayed anywhere like it."

Ladakh Sarai Resort

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful place that feels more like staying in someone’s beautiful country home than a hotel. The gardens are full of flowers, fruit and vegetables, much of which ends up on your plate. From our window we looked out onto flowers, cows quietly munching the grass, and the mountains beyond. It was quite magical. The food is excellent and the whole place has a wonderfully peaceful, unhurried atmosphere. The staff could not be kinder or more helpful, with a special mention for Chorula at reception, who looked after us so warmly. It is a little outside Leh, so you need transportation to get around, but that is also part of its charm. If you want to slow down, relax and enjoy Ladakh, it is a very special place."
