"A great experience throughout. We stayed in the family room at this hotel during our entire time in Leh. The room consists of 2 bedrooms, and provides all the amenities that one could need. It's got bay windows with a good seating accomodation. The beds and bathroom are hygienic and maintained well. The hotel has a fantastic garden with beautiful flowers and landscaping which make it a joy to sit outdoors. It is also located conveniently within a 8 min walk to the main Leh Market.
