Run by Angela and Djarga, now 11 kms from Tagong town, Khampa Nomad Ecolodge is a comfortable, eco-friendly, off-grid self-sufficient bed-and-breakfast, in the wide open pasturelands, with mountain views and amazing hiking, yet with easy 1-hour access to Kangding airport. We host top-rated horse and hiking treks, nomad tent stays, and artisan workshops; open year-round. The lodge is built with love in traditional style with modern amenities. Our focus is on local nomad food products, modeling rurally-appropriate eco-friendly technologies, and most of all, allowing for authentic experience and real connection to nomads, with experience in the region since 2004 (including founding and running the Khampa Cafe in Tagong from 2010-2014, though we are no longer connected to the cafe).
Originally decided not to write this review following a visit to Tagong last year, but having recently heard that a friend had experienced the same thing I wanted to share this warning on both travelling to, and staying at, 'Angela's Place'. Last May we travelled in a group of four to Kangding, having booked a highly anticipated stay at Khampa Ecolodge. We had seen many excellent reviews (I'm sure well deserved based on the experiences of those who were actually able to make it there) of the amazing cultural immersion available at the lodge. Upon arrival at Kangding airport security instantly knew where we were going, mentioning Angela and giving the sense that she is well know and respected by locals. Following the usual additional security checks for foreigners (they kept us supplied with tea whilst we waited), we took a car to Tagong, arriving a day prior to our stay at Khampa. That evening, however, we were to receive a call from Angela bearing bad news, we would have to cancel our stay. Angela told us that we were no longer able to stay at the lodge due to local police sensitivities, and that we would need to go elsewhere. When asking for any advice on where to go, she provided no support, so we pushed back on the cancellation asking for more explanation. Apparently this was a step too far, and her next response was to accuse us of wanting to "destroy her business", and "welcome to her world" where foreigners face these types of issues all the time. Not exactly the response you would expect based on the close local community vibes the lodge website promotes (instead it seems that Angela is managing a very delicate situation with the local police). Eventually we gave up, got our refund and went to Xinduqiao instead. Safe to say that Tagong is a sensitive area, and we all know that things can change with regard to foreign guests on a day-to-day basis. None of these risks are mentioned however on the Khampa website, and Angela failed to inform us of any potential problems in the weeks prior to our visit. Instead it seems that foreigners who turn up on a bad day are just left to fend for themselves. Angela - we would never wish to ruin your business, but you have had nearly a year since our failed visit to consider warning foreign guests of the potential cancellation risks. It seems that you still refuse to do so, sticking to your 'on the day cancellation' policy. For all prospective guests, suggest that you think twice about booking Khampa. It may indeed be an incredible experience, but you may become the next victim of cancellation. For us this is permanent, as we are "no longer welcome" at the lodge.

This is one of the few traditional Tibetan houses in the town. Not only the Tibetan appearance, but also the internal wooden structure, as well as Tibetan cultural murals. The owner once operated an inn in Sri Lanka. She is English-speakable and willing to host foreign tourists.
老板中英文无障碍交流沟通! 客栈在最繁华的主街上,位置超棒!交通方便!200米内各种餐厅,药店 ,超市,非常方便! 酒店是全木制结构,房间是LOFT的风格,算是这一路里住过的最特色的。 卫生间是我每次住酒店最看重的部分,这家非常非常干净!!宽敞!!必须赞! 老板是个成都妹子,有趣如果有具体所指的话,大概就是她那样。然而,貌似女神们都有女神经的一面,老板也不例外。哈哈。。。。。。客栈是藏式木质结构的房屋,会让人在旅途中更深切地体会到一些本地的风情习俗,某种程度讲,旅行的意义也是这样吧,到一些美丽温暖的地方,遇到些善良亲切的人(又或者遇不到)。 老板之前在斯里兰卡做民宿,因为喜欢也因为机缘来了稻城,所以店里有正宗的斯里兰卡奶茶,和我曾经在兰卡喝到过的一个味道,地道得很! 又因为她本人已经迷上了咖啡,也可以期待下,只是无奈我是个对咖啡无感的人。。有些遗憾。 The boss has accessibility communication in English and Chinese! The inn is on the most prosperous main street and the location is superb! Convenient transportation! A variety of restaurants, pharmacies, supermarkets within 200 meters, very convenient! The hotel is all-wooden and the room is LOFT style, which is the most characteristic of the road. The bathroom is the most important part of my stay at the hotel, this is very very clean! ! Spacious! ! Must be praised! The boss is a Chengdu girl. It is very nice and amazing. Tibetan wooden houses will make people feel more deeply in the local customs. To some extent, the meaning of travel is also like this. In some beautiful and warm places, meet some kind people. (Or not met). The boss had been doing a guesthouse in Sri Lanka before, so there is authentic Sri Lankan milk tea in the hotel, and the taste very great!!

Nice, clean rooms. The host was amazing, he helped us with everything we needed without thinking twice. We've never met such a genuinely helpful host before. We enjoyed every second here. Try to have lunch or dinner here, it's great!

老板人很好,热情友好、善良真诚,是一对残疾的夫妻年龄有点大了。房子的卫生都是他们自己收拾的,房间收拾的非常的干净,连橱柜内备用被子度有股淡淡的香味。客栈外观很漂亮很有特色看一眼就喜欢上了,老板还给旅馆们提供了自助厨房和餐厅(图三就是餐厅,厨房没拍。),免费提供米饭和油盐酱醋各种调味品和厨具燃气。给我们在外面玩久了的旅者一种温馨便利,一种家的感觉。

Finding an ideal small hotel in Kangding County does not have to be difficult. Welcome to Gonggazong, a nice option for travelers like you. Gonggazong is a small hotel offering a desk in the rooms. During your visit, be sure to check out Xinduqiao Town (0.3 mi), which is a popular attraction within walking distance of the small hotel. Gonggazong puts the best of Kangding County at your fingertips, making your stay both relaxing and enjoyable.
Gonggazong is a very atmospheric hotel, very picturesque, and in a great location surrounded by fields, and just a short walk into the local hills. The hotel has been built by the Tibetan manager Minyok Norbu in keeping with local styles with its own lookout tower, from which one has terrific views of the mountains. The rooms are comfortable with en-suite bathrooms and traditional wooden furnishings. The restaurant serves great food, and they also brew their own craft beer, highly recommended! I believe they are closed at times during the winter, and can be fully booked in the summer, so contact them in good time and book ahead if you can. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the wonderful manager/owner Norbu speaks very good English. This is a great place to relax and spend a few days, recharging the batteries and exploring some wonderful local scenery and walks.

抵達稻城,蔣三哥會來客運站接到客棧...客房很乾淨也提供付費的早晚餐拼桌很方便, 客棧對面就有小吃餐館及稻城最大的超市. 客棧提供住宿旅客免費使用自行車,也有一日遊配合的拼車師傅及去亞丁的拼車,只要跟櫃台說一聲,真的非常方便. 還有最大的亮點,就是每晚都有(除非下雨)免費帶客人去私房景點觀景並拍照.

We booked this guesthouse over National Week. The reviews sounded good but we were a bit disappointed. As it was Golden Week, the prices were extremly high but really not justified!!! Even though it was National Week, they charged a horrendous amount of money for a double bedroom. The room was ok but it was dirty. There were cigarettes of the last guest on the floor and the bathroom was dirty, too. We even had to ask for toilet paper. I think if they charge so much money, they should at least make sure everything is more or less clean. During our first night we had 5 power cuts. It was pitch black and as there was no heating as the heating blanket didnt work because of the power cut. They didnt even apologize for it. The second night we had 2 power cuts. The breakfast is very Chinese but it is definitely not 20 RMB worth. Apart from that, the location is great. It is very close to the entrance of the scenic area. The staff is very friendly and helpful and they speak good English.

See why so many travelers make Dengba Inn Daocheng their guest house of choice when visiting Daocheng County. Providing an ideal mix of value, comfort and convenience, it offers a romantic setting with an array of amenities designed for travelers like you. The rooms offer a desk, allowing you to rest and refresh with ease. While in Daocheng County be sure to experience nearby cafes such as Bu Er Coffee or GaoYuan FanYing Café. We’re sure you’ll enjoy your stay at Dengba Inn Daocheng as you experience all of the things Daocheng County has to offer.
The owner really went out of his way to help us during our 4 night stay in Daocheng! He safely kept hold of our bags whilst we visited Yading nature reserve, translated a lesser known monastery's name for us to visit, recommended a hotel for Yading and if all that wasn't enough, he escorted us to the airport in a taxi at 6am in the morning!! All that with a minimal vocabulary of English! What a hero! The room was large and clean, with hot water, blankets and a heated bedsheet! Extremely well priced and an exceptionally friendly service! We will be sure to revisit in the future!

Wonderful location: in Buke village (30 Yuan ride from Danba city), quiet, nice views from the courtyard and the roof terrace both to the village and the mountains. Amazing food: breakfast is included, but they also serve lunch and dinner, the most delicious food we have eaten in our trip! Rooms: are nicely decorated and spotless. Staff: familiar atmosphere, even though we neither speak Chinese nor Tibetan and they didn’t speak English communication was possible through an app. *the name on tripadvisor, booking.com is different than the one written at the entrance of the property. “Herui Buke Yard Inn” vs. “Herui Courtyard”. That causes confusion at first but later it was clear that it was the same place. **in maps.me the place appears by mistake 3 km further away from Danba. ***they offer 4 different rooms at 4 different prices: two of them with a double bed (one standard, one deluxe) and two with two double beds (either as twin or as family room). At the time we booked through booking.com it was confusing as it seemed that those rooms with one bed were for 1 person and those with two double beds were for two persons. We spent only 2 nights there and did excursions to the different villages around, but we could have easily stayed longer! There is a lot to explore in the area.
