Do not get me wrong, its adequate, quaint, well located and even relatively cheap. Do ask for a lower floor, 4th floor walk ups get old quick after a few days at that altitude. Problems; we rarely had both hot and cold water at the same time. Oddly enough most of the time we had hot water only, actually too... more

The Kyichu Hotel is a delight; we stayed twice in a month and the people were charming as is the hotel and it has a very very good restaurant and garden. Our first room needed a space heater which they brought but our second room had heat and was almost a suite. The location is an easy walk to the... more

We stayed in 3 different rooms over 5 nights here. The rooms in general were a bit worn and the beds were as hard as any other in the country. Some rooms have a nice view out into the courtyard. The bathrooms are very tired. The toilet would flush about 70% of the time and the showers were hard to... more

The Kyichu Hotel is a well run hotel with excellent staff that speak great English to help you hail a pedicab, give you directions for the correct bus to ride, or direct you to the easiest way to get to your destination. We (my teenage daughter and mother) stayed for 7 days after arriving in Lhasa shortly after the torch... more

Our room was large, clean, quiet and bright and had hot water. The courtyard was very pleasant and relaxing. This hotel also has the best restaurant we found in Lhasa - which was really nice... more

After reading reviews about how great this hotel was and seduced by the beautiful Tibetan style room pictures posted on their web site, I asked my cousin to make a reservation at this hotel instead of Saikang Hotel which was highly recommended by our private Tibetan tour guide. When we arrived we found out that the whole place was far... more

Wonderful location - we were able to walk around and see all the sights with occasional pit stops back at the hotel during the day since it was so close. We had a room on the 4th floor - and I'd recommend asking for a lower floor - because at that altitude the climb to the 4th floor was a... more
