The hotel is located at a distance of about 6 Km from the Leh Airport. We stayed in the hotel on four nights. On the first night we were provided rooms on the ground floor but on our request on subsequent days rooms were given on the first floor, which are comparatively newer and better. The rooms and the bathrooms were neat and clean. Bed linen and towels were clean. Basic amenities were provided in the bath. The furniture in the room was good. The wifi was only available in and around the lobby and that too was going off and on intermittently. Ambience of the restaurant was good. Food was also good and homely. The hotel has a well maintained lawn good for an after dinner barefoot walk. The view of the not so distant snow capped mountains from the balcony was stunning. The hotel is located on the outskirts of the town in calm and serene surroundings. The staff led by Mr. Dorjee and his assistant Ms. Diskit were very courteous and tried their best to make our stay comfortable. The only jarring note was the drink party held in the lawn below our balcony by some of the guests from 11 pm till 1 am in the night which did not allow us to sleep. The guests were too loud and kept screaming at their colleagues in the room above. I requested Mr. Dorjee the morning after to ensure reasonable timings for such parties in future. I would not look for other options if I happen to...
Read moreWe had a room on the first floor (room 213 i think) with a great view of the snow capped mountains. We went in the last week of Sept to early October. Snow was more than usual due to recent rains. The resort is fairly close to the city. Food was wholesome and tasty. Only drawback i found was the lack of any heating in the rooms especially since we went when the temperatures were upto 10 degrees C daytime (and below 0 at night). The resort shuts down in early October and reopens in March. The owner of the resort Mr Dorjey is very friendly and will help you plan your itinerary. He owns resorts in Nubra Valley and in the town of Leh for those who want to stay in the winter months. Contact: ladakhretreat@gmail.com|| Internet connectivity is pathetic, absent on many days, and erratic at other times. Wifi only available in the lobby, free but very erratic. Prepaid mobile connections don't work in Ladakh unless taken locally. We took a bsnl postpaid connection before going there, which came in very useful. Airtel postpaid will also work and has better internet connectivity in Leh but not rest of Ladakh. Jio is a very...
Read moreMy friend and I visited The Ladakh retreat in August staying five nights as part of a 10 days tour of Ladakh. We were keen to find inexpensive hotels but aprehensive about the quality, The Ladakh retreat was the best place we stayed at, airport transfer , arranging car, accommodation in Nubra and Pangong, camping, trekking, everything under one roof, room charges included breakfast n dinner , the best part was to get Suji ka halwa in Ladakh as sweetdish after dinner, n to nonveg eaters mutton was the speciality of chef, overall it was fantastic. Even if you want to have mint tea, they will take mint leaves from their kitchen garden n serve you the 100% organic mint tea, same goes for vegetables, Spotless public areas, big modern room, to alcohol lovers bar is in their upcoming plan, but it was missing when we visited, n of course not to mention free wifi, a nice serene place having balconies facing Stok Kangri, I would love to come back again.
