"This is the second time I have stayed at Buddha's Abode. They had only just opened last year and it is pleasing to see an additional floor has opened up.
The views of the mountains are the best in Mcleod Ganj and the location is fantastic for all that the area has to offer.
The staff are amazing and so helpful and friendly, and really made my stay even better than expected.
I would absolutely stay here again and I would highly recommend due to the great location and amazing nights sleep on a...

"Room was clean and staff were very helpful and courteous. Only one thing needs to be changed is the hot drinks with breakfast from the machine is not a good idea. "

"I had a really pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable and offered a nice view. The staff was very friendly and helpful which made the stay even better. Room service was quick and everything I ordered tasted great — really fresh and well-prepared. The breakfast buffet was one of the highlights, with plenty of variety and different items every day, which kept it interesting. Overall, a great experience and definitely a place I’d recommend to others."

"I had the pleasure of spending two months at Greenwoods Inn, and I cannot recommend this place enough. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed and genuinely cared for.
The manager, Ragish, was outstanding—super patient, considerate, and incredibly professional. He made sure that everything I needed was taken care of with a kind and thoughtful approach. The receptionist, Messo, was equally amazing, always greeting me with a smile and ensuring my stay was as comfortable as possible. And...

"The Lodge felt like it could be a great place, but couldn't be bothered. Most staff seemed bored, and not actively involved in managing the place.
The description of this place sounds wonderful and passionate! It felt, at best forlorn and neglected. Did something go wrong here? "

"Good location in McLeod. Spacious room, hot water worked well & although the room was very cold at night, they provided a heater for approx. £3 per night. Good value for money overall! "

"Wonderful Tibetan hotel, a treasure in so many ways. Lovely people, lovely place and a lovely location. Minutes to the Dalai Lama Temple, the Kora circuit and the markets. The place itself is beautiful and a paradise away from the hub bub of taxi stalls, markets and the energy of the city. The Hummingbird Cafe was delicious! We ate Tibetan foods everyday and loved each meal. We bought a beautiful artisan Tibetan picture frame from their mini store in the cafe. All proceeds go toward the Tibetan cultural and educational programs. Bravo Norbulingkha Institute, thank you. We adored our stay.

"We didn’t book a taxi transfer from the airport with the hotel, which we regret as the taxi driver struggled to find the hotel. We had absolutely no problem with the taxi transfer to the airport organised by the hotel. He got to the airport in about 45mins. To get from the hotel to the main part of the town you have to walk up lots of steps. The room we stayed in was nice with a balcony to admire the Mountain View and a heater which was needed in the evenings in the second half of November. The bathroom was less inviting. To get hot water, you needed to turn the heater on in the bathroom, which we weren’t told about. The shower didn’t have a shower tray and wet a large part of the bathroom floor. When we arrived there wasn’t any toilet paper or bottled water, but this was provided on request. We didn’t have breakfast but we did eat at the hotel once. Lots of things on the menu weren’t available and the restaurant area was very cold. We ate with our coats on. There is an outside rooftop dining area which I imagine is very pleasant on warm summer evenings. Final thing to be aware of, but nothing to do with the hotel is lots of dog barking all through the night."
