We moved here after one night at the Cool Yak because they had water problems. No regrets! This place is amazing, oozing with character and they have a lovely rooftop restaurant/bar with fantastic views of the Potala Palace and the mountains. We stayed here before leaving Lhasa for our long trip to Base Camp and Kailash and we had planned... More

I love the rooftop cafe, choices of drinks are very wide but most may not be available... Never mind, the best thing about this place, it's so quiet, and you will have one of the best views of Potala Palace, never miss it during the sunset, lovely!
