Room: 4 out of 5
> Rooms are comfortable and neat. we stayed 2 nights in different rooms. triple sharing room was well enough to call room but double bedded room was well according to the standards.
Location: 5 out of 5
>you'll get view of peaks from almost every hotel in munsiyari. this hotel is located in start of the city. so going in and out is much convenient.
Comfort: 4 out of 5
> as previously stated the triple bed room was "just room enough". otherwise nice and comfortable stay
Host: 5 out of 5
> The host is very friendly and helpful person. he guided us to the routes, changed our accommodation as we were thinking not to spend another night in triple sharing. we had a cash crunch as ATM were not working and it was festive time/tourist season. the host asked us to inform him in case we require any help to get cash from banks.

Stayed for a night here. Mr Pandey is most welcoming and kind. The hotel is average. The room was comfortable enough but they hv a real problem with the power supply..the room heaters and geysers refused to work obviously. They tried their level best to organize alternative solutions tho. Im glad we didnt extend our stay coz we were terribly cold. The only positive was the view of the mesmerizing mountains..the whole purpose of our trip from Bangalore.
Solpa adjust maadi was our motto!

We had stayed in Pandey Lodge for 2 days just before the Xmas. The rooms, toilets are extremely clean. We had stayed in the topmost view room and the view was fantastic. There is no need to go elsewhere, one can relax in the room and enjoy the view all day long. Food is simple, but good. Most of all, the kind of hospitality, cooperation and care we received from the staff along with amiable Pandey ji himself is never to be forgottenđź‘Źđź‘Ź! I wish to visit Munsiyari again and stay in the Pandey Lodge sometime in future.

I booked this hotel from my tour operator on the basis of its advertisements. the location is nice - you would be able to view panchachulli range and glacier from your bed. but the rooms lack maintenance. the lamp shades were broken with most of the swiches not in usable condition. the carpet was full of dirt. linens were used and pathetic. bathrooms are odorous with broken fittings. geyser was not working properly. utensils were very dirty. food was very costly with not up to the mark to charge such a high price. service was dismal with no room service at all. absence of purified water sources. do not expect valet parking.

I visited Munsyari last week. I stayed here for 2 days. Though it was not advised to visit Munsyari during Monsoon (July-August) but I still I went there because I was sucked my extreme hot temperature of my city. It was fog all around in Munsyari when we visited. We were waiting from dawn to dusk for just a sight of Panchachuli Hills. Finally in the evening, the the fog gradually reduced and a crystal clear view of mesmerizing Panchachuli Hills was visible from our hotels room. Regarding hotel and staff, I would say that it was a homely experience. It was a perfect room facing Panchachuli hills. Staff was much friendly so was the owner Mr. Pandey. He acting as a guide took us to Nanda Devi temple in his personal car. The food was also good, specially the 'Jeera Aalu' was tasty. Overall it was a great experience there. I would like to visit Munsyari again in January (during snowfall).

We reached Hotel Pandey Lodge at 1400 on 27th October . I was in contact with Shri Pooran Pandey , the owner of the hotel , since 15th July . Though he was assuring and reassuring me that there was no need for me to reserve our accommodation for 2 nights by paying any advance , still I had deposited Rs 1000 /- in his account in State Bank of India . During our journey from Chaukori to Munsyari , I called him twice to inform him about our progress . Knowing we were going to stay at Hotel Pandey Lodge , Hemji , our driver was damn pleased as every year 4 to 5 times he used to take his passangers to this Lodge since last 7 years and Pandeyji used to trea him as his own and close relative . Shri Pooranji was waiting for us when we arrived at his Hotel and helped us in selecting the best room at the third floor . I preferred this room only because through the windows of the room we could see the famous Panchchuli peaks and from the balcony the panoramic view of the majestic Himalayan peaks .

Shri Pooranji used to visit us twice early in the morning , morning , afternoon , evening , and night to enquire about our comfort and convenience . When Vaijayanti expressed her apprension about temperature in the night , he assured her that whatever may be the temperature , she would not worry as he would arrange to spread a blanket on the bed sheet , provide another warm blanket and a powerfull heater . Before leaving the Hotel , I profusely thanked him for the heater as it was really powerful and it was kept by the side of Vaijayanti’s bed , she could not tolerate the heat and slept in my bed .

Due to his personal attention to each and every major and minor thing , though he had 23 rooms his Hotel was always packed . His rooms were charged in such a way that the charge would be light to his customers’ wallets . A suite , Super Delux Room ( where we stayed ) , Semi Delux Room , Standard Room , Ordinary Room were charged at Rs 1500 /- , 1050 /- , 850 /- , 550 /- , 450 /- per night respectively . A bed in the Dormitory could be available at Rs 100 /- per night . Moreover he had separate kitchens for veg and nonveg dishes . So other veg tourists staying in other hotels and resorts thronged his restaurant for tasty meals .

His father in his late eighties was running a medical shop at the ground floor . He also used to enquie about the guests .

We were highly benefitted by selecting this Lodge as in addition to the friendship with Shri Pooranji we could enjoy the mighty Himalayan peaks of Chaukhamba I ( 7138 m ) , Chaukhamba II ( 7058 m ) , Chaukhamba III ( 6974 m ) , Chaukhamba IV ( 6854 m ) , Kamet ( 7756 m ) , Trishul I ( 7120 m ) , Trishul II ( 6690 m ) , Trishul III (6008 m ) , Mrigthuni ( 6855 m ) , Maiktoli ( 6803 m ) , Nanda Devi ( 7824 m ) , Nanda Devi East ( 7434 m ) , Chhanguch (6322 m ) , Nandakot ( 6861 m ) , Nandakhat ( 6611 m ) , Panwali Dwar (6663 m ) , Rajrambha ( 6537 m ) , Panchachuli I ( 6354 m ) , Panchachuli II ( 6903 m ) , Panchachuli III ( 6312 m ) , Panchachuli IV (6334 m ) & Panchachuli V ( 6437 m ) in India and Machhapuchhare (6993 m ) , Api ( 7132 m ) , Byans ( 6670 m ) , Guransh ( 6644 m ) , Lipu Lek ( 5000 m ) and Nampa ( 6757 m ) in Nepal . The Panchchuli peaks were very close and enjoyed just sitting in the balcony .

We have stayed at Pandey Lodge,Munsiyari on 11th and 12th december. It was like staying at home while you are away from your home:) Pandeyji took utmost care to make our stay most comfortable. He also guided us for the Khaliya trek in such a way that we didn't need to hire a guide .

Talking about the hotel, Rooms are cozy,clean and comfortable with great Himalayan ranges view. Food quality was also quite good.

We had a great stay at Pandey Lodge. Although adjacent to the bus station, it is a peaceful spot
( there are not many buses ) and our room was both very comfortable and had a great view of the Himalayas. We stayed a week and the owner, Mr. Poova Pandey, treated us like family. He not only helped with all our needs in Munsyari, he also recommended an outstanding trek to Khalia Tops. Go if you have the chance since the views are among the best in Uttarkhand. We camped up high for 3 nights and were very glad we did.
The hotel is comfortable with spacious wood rooms and hot water and the food is quite good. The staff are also friendly and helpful. We highly recommend the Hotel Pandey Lodge

During October 2014 , I along with my family have visited Munsyari. And our hotel was pandey lodge as per my travelling agent. First day when we reached there the Owner Mr. Pandey said that no room is available. Because another Travelling Agent who give them many business, came with a more people. Room which would have allotted to us that room has been given to the particular renounce travelling agent. And for us the Owner have arranged another hotel which was just horrible. Next day we have been allotted a room in Pandey Lodge and charged us extra money else we will not be allowed to stay there. The owner was just a watchman. Everywhere he was visiting around the lodge. So, before booking please check my points else you will be in a horrible situation. Except tea and water no room service is available.
