pangong rainbow cottage

The best location at Pangong lake. It's at the end of the road so it's quiet. We had an amazing view. The staff was welcoming and helpful. We had dirty clothes after our motorbike ride and the staff gave us the cloth to clean it. They made breakfast very early for us. Two meals were included in the price. The food was simple but very tasty. The bed was big and the provided blankets were perfectly warm for the weather.

Bear in mind that at Pangong Lake the electricity is generated at specific hours only (between 7pm and 11pm). The hot water is given in a bucket by request.

Location is amazing, the front cottages have beautiful lake view. The host was very friendly and helpful, and some small issues were solved immediately. Food was very good, and he was also willing to prepare breakfast for us at 6am because we had to leave early. Considering the remote location and altitude, you have to be aware that there is no shower and no warm water, But the host can bring you some if really needed. Drinking hot water is also always available in the dining room. electricity is available between 7 pm to 11 pm, But if you Travel to these places, this is something you have to accept and is part of the journey. The host was also helpful in giving us some suggestions on roads conditions.

The only note I have is that the power generator is a bit noisy and there is diesel smell while it’s working, so it could be moved a bit further away from the cottages.

The location was good. the cottage was great. Most importantly the cottage rooms had their own attached washrooms which was very helpful as the nights are cold and dark. the manager was exceptionally nice and helpful. Please note that all rooms near the lake are cottages and not hotel like grandeur rooms. Once you are mindful of this you can then enjoy the serene cottage and lake.
