Nice location. Close to nature. Incredible host varun. Value for money. Staff very friendly. Food is excellent. The host is helpful in arranging in your itinerary. Host mingles with the guests and keeps them engaged. The outside sitting space gives you opportunity to interact with people of different countries. Excellent place to stay.

We had the best time here! Me and my partner stayed over the Christmas/New Year period. Varun and all the staff couldn’t do enough for us, and Varun was amazing at bringing people together and creating a sociable and welcoming atmosphere - there were games and group trips happening most days and we made a lot of lovely friends here. He even bought a cake for my partner’s birthday. We love walking and Varun was able to recommend some great hikes in the local area as well as for our onward journey to Parvarti valley - we were able to plan a great itinerary with his advice and had an amazing time. If you’re in Manali, this is the place to stay ☺️
