But thankfully , it exceeded our expectations :) We had earlier booked a room for 700rs(online).The room was HUGE , the size of 2 rooms actually, but... More

We travelled to Himachal Pradesh in April 2012 and had a great time staying at Hotel Kunal for 2 nights. I landed up in Dharamshala and started looking out for place to stay, this place was in close proximity to the Bus stand, but stood away from crowd. Great view to wake up in the morning, spacious clean rooms(though with... More

It has own car parking. Rooms are very big in size with very clean beds, bedsheets. Bathrooms in rooms are very clean, big... More

Hotel is maintained by Himachal Pradesh Tourism. It is good place to stay, food is also good. But look wise it is only average. Worth a night or two for stay if you want to visit the place. This exactly near the market, you can also visit the Memorial next to it.

terrible stay, terrible service, terrible food, the rude staff will be at ur service. if they don't want to serve they even disconnect the room phone so that u don't disturb them. If u face any problem or discomfort, they all are helpless fellows and nothing can bother them. the typical 'sarkaari' approach that it seems no one in the... More

If you want to select Dharamshala as your base and travel to McLeod Ganj and other places, this is your best option. Run by HPTDC, the hotel ensures a quality experience for the traveller. The food is very good, mainly because the hotel has its own independent restaurant. The view from the deluxe rooms is great as you can see... More
