We went in 2011 year end looking for a relaxed stay in Dharamshala, and Udechee Huts was the best choice we could have done. The view from the room is simply incredible, room service is very good and staff is very polite too. Infact, the overall prices are reasonable. The place is very peaceful, however it is a little far from active town. The place is very neat and well maintained. Would definitley recommend it.

If you are looking for a nice, clean and memorable stay in McLeod Ganj/Dharamsala, then this is the place for you. We stayed for a couple of nights and had an overall good experience. The staff is very friendly and the place is nicely maintained. It has an amazing common sitting place with excellent view, personally my favorite viewpoint. The food is reasonably priced and had a homely cooking touch. Do keep in mind that this place is several kms uphill from McLeodganj city center! But I guess if you want something near the hustle bustle of the city this is anyways not the place for you.

The setting of Udechee Huts is absolutely amazing, never had a better view directly from my bed! A green, peaceful valley below, the imposing mountains of the Dhauladhar Range rising up in front ... loved every morning ... in particular when the sun was warm enough to have breakfast on the terrasse.

Staff is courteous and helpful, and the owners are very kind and friendly.

There is room for improvement, however, as unfortunately the beds are indeed very uncomfortable, and the quality of food served at the restaurant is a bit unstable (some days really delicious, others only average). There is Internet, but only via the hotels slightly worn computer and only on demand. Also, it would be nice to be informed in advance that one actually has to pay for Internet access.

With better beds, more consistent food quality and free Wifi, this place could really be top. We plan to be back and hope for improvement!

Note: this is a quiet place away from the bustling McLeog Ganj, so factor in a daily 30 min walk or a 10 min auto tuktuk ride to get there.

Udechee huts will always be a special place to us since we went there for our honeymoon! This was way back in April 2007, but the place has left such a great impression that I had to review it even if it has been a while since our holiday there. We wanted a nice and quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of McLeod Ganj. We could not have found a better place. Initially we were shown into a super deluxe room just above the reception, but when we told them that we had booked a cottage for the duration of the stay, the error was corrected immediately. The cottages are beautiful, each one built to make the most of the views of the spectacular Dhauladhar range. The peace, quiet and solitude of this place leaves you relaxed and destressed. We spent many days just soaking in the views and rural feel of this wonderful place. The food served here was homely and we always looked forward to our breakfast on the terrace. Wonderful coffee with hot Aloo Parathas in the cool climes was a treat! Mr. Abhai Singh and his wife were very helpful indeed. They would tell us which places to visit, even planning long walking routes for us to make the most of our visit. They also booked taxi's for us which took us sightseeing. The pick up and drop off service was really handy since we were coming from Mumbai. We were picked up and dropped off to Pathankot airport perfectly in time.
The rooms are basic but comfortably furnished. The toilets and bathrooms were clean and functional. This is not the place to stay in if you are expecting 5 star accomodation. The service too was great and all our needs were catered to.
If you want to get away from the maddening crowds of the city and want to really unwind, then this is the place to stay in. Highly recommended!
