2. The Belvedere Himalayan Retreat, Mcleodganj by Leisure Hotels

McLeod Ganj, 1.5 km from Dalai Lama's Residence

"The hotel is very well maintained and located close to the main market. However, it is adjacent to a half finished property with a stay order and a little difficult to find since it is behind another hotel. That being said the views from the 5th floor rooms that we booked-509 and 510 were worth a million bucks. Their breakfast is delicious and varied with hot and cold items and Indian and continental fare. Would recommend this place."

Top Dalai Lama's Residence Hotel Reviews

Chonor House

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful little gem of a hotel located right next to the Dalai Lama temple. Loved our stay here. Extremely comfortable time there with very attentive staff, and lovely rooms. Traditional Tibetan decor made it a special experience. Onsite restaurant with free breakfast was wonderful too. Tibetan cuisine offerings were great. Loved every minute of our stay. We’ll be back!"

Hyatt Regency Dharamshala Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean and the hotel location is in a peaceful forest 15 minutes walk to McLeod Ganj where the Dalai Lama lives and the main square. The food at breakfast was excellent and you can ask for things like bananas that were not on the table. The staff were attentive. Our laundry service was excellent as well."

Serkong Rabsel House

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was clean. The mountain view is nice. Staffs are very genuinely nice and friendly. We got a lot of useful information regarding the etiquette to meet his holiness, things to do, where to eat around Dharamshala. We had a good time and was immensely grateful for their help."

WelcomHeritage Natraj McLeod Ganj

10/10 Excellent

"It was a very wonderful stay very helpful staff and best location"

The Belvedere Himalayan Retreat, Mcleodganj by Leisure Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"This is my favourite hotel in McLeod Ganj. It's about a 5 minute walk from the main bazaar, located in a wooded area that's quiet and has spectacular views of Mt. Dhauladhar and the valley. The rooftop restaurant has some of the best views in the area, and the food is good. Lots of variety, and everything I had was well prepared. It has a surprisingly well equipped gym, probably the best I've seen in a hotel. New and high quality equipment, free weights and aerobic things like treadmills and stationary bikes. Staff are friendly and helpful. I highly recommend it. The only problem was that only half of the powerpoint worked. Not a big deal though."
