EXCELLENT Based on 52 reviews Posted on naveen sharmaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We stayed for 2 nights and were very impressed by the resort's landscape. The Ladakhi-style cottages were evenly designed, keeping privacy in mind, and provided abundant sunshine. The staff was friendly, and the rooms were clean and neat. We had access to 24-hour hot water supply, and the food was delicious. We will definitely come again. 👍Posted on Amit SharmaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
