The 10 best Lodges in Ladakh, India

May 7, 2023 Chanda Heide

Bounded by the Karakoram and Himalayan mountains, Ladhak is the largest province in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The landscape of Ladhak, a high altitude desert, is defined by craggy, barren cliffs and plateaus. Ladhak is a favorite among adventure sports enthusiasts, offering unique adventures in trekking, mountaineering and white water rafting. While rafting options are available on both Indus and Zanskar rivers, the Zanskar course is more difficult and exciting. The trekking options range from short, day-long walks to visit monuments or monastic settlements to long, trans-mountain treks involving weeks of walking and camping in the wilderness. Ladhak celebrates a numbers of monastic festivals - annual events of the major monasteries primarily in winters. The month of September, hosts the Ladhak Festival, that gives a peek into the richness, depth and pageantry of Ladakh's centuries-old culture, traditions and folk heritage. One can witness the best samples of the region's performing arts, Archery contests and the Ladhak Polo Cup.

Lehling Guesthouse : A mesmerizing home stay

Reviewed By iroyburman

The guest house is very neat, clean, peaceful & lovely and is run by a Ladakhi couple. The owners are educated, very caring, cool, humble, friendly & helpful. This is a peaceful and tranquil abode best for small families and elderly couples or anyone who is looking for a break from the noisy world. This is a very economical and decent place to stay. Someone is always there to tend to your needs and serve hot and fresh food, just like home. They offer a wide range of vegetable dishes. They provide comfortable neat beddings, very clean blankets and pillows. The view is very pleasant from the big windows of the guest rooms. Rubber slippers are provided by the guest house itself to wear inside the house. Parking space is there for guests. It felt like we were so many miles away from home but on the same time were at home itself. We will never forget the warm hospitality and helpful attitude of “Team Lehling”. It was just like our second home in Leh :) We are grateful to Mr. & Mrs. Dorjee, without their help our Ladakh trip could not have been such a success. Three cheers for "Team Lehling" P.S: Getting down to the main market takes only 10 minutes but going back to the guest house is very tough to climb up. So it is best to hire a Maruti cab available on every street of Leh main market to Lehling guest house at Rs. 200 depending upon the season.

Babu Guest House

Très bien situé, avec vue sympa

Reviewed By sandiecolin

Babu guest House est située dans Old Leh, à 3 minutes à pied du centre et du terrain de polo. Prix imbattable pour les chambres avec salle de bain partagée (en revanche, la propreté de ces 2 salles de bain et de ces chambres serait vraiment à améliorer et pas d’eau chaude). Il semblerait que les chambres plus récentes soient plus propres et mieux entretenues. Wifi difficile mais comme partout à Leh, nous a-t-il semblé. Le proprio est arrangeant pour la garde des sacs (pendant un trek par exemple) ou pour un Check-out en fin de journée.

Lharje Resort

Good place with Great Location

Reviewed By GoutamV

This tranquil Resort is location in the Valley opposite Diskit Valley. One has to travel for atleast an hour to reach this place from Diskit. Pros: 1. Brilliant location offering excellent views of the Valley 2. Peaceful and tranquil 3. Great food - courtesy Himachali cook. 4. Away from the hustle and bustle of touristy spot 5. The rooms are earthy and comfortable. Cons: 1. Far from the nearest tourist attraction. 2. Avoid this place if you cannot stay at Resorts where you might be the only couple in the entire property! 3. Entire village receives electricity from 7 to 11 in the evening. Carry an Led torch if you cannot sleep in pitch darkness! 4. Avoid if you need creature comforts more than the lap of nature!

Wonderful stay in Ladakh

Reviewed By royjay2018

This property is located right at the heart of Leh very close to the Leh Main Market. The owner Mr. Wangchuk made sure that we remain comfortable during the entire period of our stay at his hotel. Food was great and freshly cooked. Travel agencies are located just outside the hotel premises. Staff was polite and the ambiance was perfect for a holiday.
