My family loved our stay at this Tibetan cultural showcase, with its beautiful wall art, carvings, paintings. The rooms were plush and luxurious in a simple, homespun way yer intricately artful. Something so authentic, rich, deep and powerful - that the feeling from the moment you step in, till you leave. It is right next to the Dalai Lama's complex,... More

We loved this hotel. Yes its up a very steep hill to the hotel at the front or down another one from the back, we are 60+ and it was a bit of a struggle but we made it. The younger ones ran up the hill. The staff will carry your luggage on their heads to your room! All the... More

I stayed at the Chonor House four nights as part of a group. The hotel is lovely and the hospitality warm and welcoming. The rooms are large and the beds are comfortable. The restaurant serves delicious food at a reasonable price. There is a wide variety of selections both Tibetan and western. Some of the rooms could use some updating,... More

This little hotel is beautiful, situated on the mountain side, a short steep walk down a lane to the temple and markets. The rooms are very Tibetan and spotlessly clean. Lovely views over the surrounding mountains. The staff are pleasant and helpful. The food was good and excellent value. ( cheapest mini bar ever ) Internet access, although patchy, is... More

If you are looking for 5 star luxury accommodation by western standards (as it seems some of the other reviewers are) then maybe McLeodganj is not the place for you. Personally, I thought Chonor house was one of the most enchanting, authentic and unique places I've ever had the opportunity to stay in. The views were stunning. The decor of... More

We were slightly dreading arriving at Chonor House as our travel agent was concerned that we would not like the hotel as they had been only been able to book us a lower category room, but we were very pleasantly surprised on arriving as the room was lovely and we had a balcony with amazing views. The restaurant had a... More

With all the recommendations and positive reviews, I was expecting more from Chonor House. The service, although I do think they want to make you happy sincerely, could be improved. I think the 2 biggest obstacles are the limited English spoken by the majority of staff (in fact they had gotten everyone 's breakfast order wrong due to miscommunication) and... More

We drove down from Chandigarh to Mcleodganj & were able to find Chonor House quite easily since it is centrally located on Temple road. The location is very good as most of the places & restaurants in town are at a walking distance but be prepared for some steep roads. Chonor house itself is a well-maintained property with prompt service.... More
