I arrived at this hotel quite by accident, but was very happy that I did, especially after I had a chance to amble around the town for a few days and see the other types of accommodations that were available. The atmosphere here is amazing, in large part due to the warm-hearted and respectful owners and their staff, all of... More

The hotel is aging, but we had a nice suite with views of the valley. The room was clean, bed comfy, and bathroom had a tub & shower curtain (a plus in Asia!). We even had a sitting area, fridge, and tea kettle. The rooftop cafe has a limited menu but it's a great place to start off your morning... More

Everything is a matter of perspective in Dharamshala/Mcleodganj. You shouldn't expect the Grand Hyatt or a Fairmont Resort when you are there. Things work at a different pace and a more quaint. Annex Hotel fits in with that idea, providing its guests with friendly service, and adequate rooms. We had wi-fi access from our room and a beautiful view over... More

I stayed here for about a week in March 2012 and had such a pleasant experience - I will definitely come back.this is the best location, beautiful views, quiet street, and right in the heart of town. The brothers who own and run the hotel are super friendly and go out of their way to make sure the guests are... More

It was my 2nd visit in Dharamshala, so I stayed again at Annex Hotel as I liked it when I was there last year. During the night it was a bit cold, but a heater was provided which was really helpful and changed the room into a comfortable place.Everything was clean. In case something is missing you can always asked... More

Overall we had a comfortable stay in the clean room that was provided to us in the basement. The view from our room was ok, but I think if you get a room higher in the first/second floor the view will be better and also will have sunlight. The food menu needs an update with more options for lunch and... More

We loved our stay at the Annex Hotel. Originally we had reserved a deluxe room, but after viewing it and not being completely happy we asked if an upgrade to a suite was possible, and were able to stay one one of those, which was a bit nicer, and worth the extra price. Overall the suites seem to have nicer... More

A group of us from several countries recently stayed at The Annex. We ranged in age from our 40s to our 70s but I am confident that all of us would speak with one voice about The Annex. Our host, Hakeem, was friendly and helpful and we were treated most hospitably. The rooms are clean and provide comfortable accommodation and... More
