Chalet Seabuckthorn - Hunder

NATURE . SNOW AND ALL THINGS I LOVE .... REALLY ENJOY MY TRIP THK....

Before booking any property I have a habit of going through many Google reviews on that hotel. So before booking I checked the review of this Chalet Seabuckthorn.But just after entering here we both suddenly fell from the sky. There is no display board in front of the hotel. Our Google map showed it's the hotel. Then our chauffeur, Namgiyal asked the shop owner opposite of the hotel. Then we entered the hotel, it looked like an abandoned property. Namgiyal bullied the horn as badly as I told him. Still no one came out. Then Namgiyal entered the premises to call the personnel. Two boys came out looking as if they were being punished. But a big dog came out and started sniffing. After entering the reception informed us we get electricity only from 5:30 pm to 12 pm. This is not declared on their website. Only two young boys running the hotel with the help of a chef who also visited as per need. One boy Rishov, was like a manager who didn't know the value of only one bottle of mineral water He had no menu card. This hotel has no water purifier, no bread toaster, no sandwich maker. We entered here with too much hunger and asked for a chicken sandwich. But they couldn't be supplied because they had no chicken in their storage. Then we wanted simple bread butter and masala omelette. They served bread toasted in the oven and no spot of butter was in it and cold masala omelette. Tea was too good. Mr. K. Li described this resort as" Beautiful resort set in an oasis surrounded by snow capped mountains. Each room is an individual cabin with a private bathroom, sitting area and very comfortable bed." Sorry to accept his comments. It's not a room it's just a tent. A hotel's room means an attached bath with fully decorated rooms. So the 1st half line is.normal. But the 2nd half, private sitting isn't true. The hotel supplied two chairs so winky if you sit and move its reverses. Cot also too winky.

There was nothing to ike

The property was quite pretty and the room and bathroom were large and spacious and clean. Upon arriving, they had mentioned to us that hot water was available only at specific times of the day and during those times we did get hot water without any issues. Because there are frequent power cuts across the valley and there is no electricity at night, they had provided us with a few plug points that were running on inverter and we could charge our phones using those points even when there was no electricity which was quite helpful. The room itself was ventilated such that we could open a window at night and a stand fan was also provided.

The restaurant service was quite slow and food was alright. Additionally, the menu was literally a zerox paper with someone having hand written the items on it, making it quite unappealing. Although the chalets were nice and we had a peaceful stay, and we didnt really have anything major to complain about, in terms of value for money, I do think the hotel is quite over priced and not sure if it's worth the money that they are charging for the stay. Our first 2 days at Nubra, we stayed at a cheaper place and if we had to compare the 2, then I dont think this has any major additions that make it worth the extra money spent.

Location

Staff wasn’t helpful, room was very cold as the ceiling top had an opening

The night up there was cold but we were given extra blankets to warm up upselves , thank you!

There was a limit of hot water and electricity , but all limitations were communicated clearly in time.
