16 Arahat Guest House

It’s a peaceful spot a short walk from the market, and there’s parking inside the hotel. The room was clean, with comfortable bedding and blankets, a strong hot shower, and lovely Himalayan views. The rooms are good and budget friendly, and the owner was incredibly helpful. I’ll try to stay here again on my next trip.

Being here made my Ladakh trip really memorable. The market is walkable, though a little way off, which keeps the place peaceful. My room was very clean, the bedding and blanket were comfortable, and the hot shower had great pressure. The owner was so helpful. Thank you!

We arrived with a flat tyre, and the owners helped us thoroughly. They were really friendly, and I appreciate how much they did for us. The rooms were very clean and huge, with a beautiful view of the snow capped mountains. There’s ample parking too.

The walk to the main bazaar took about 15 minutes, so it was peaceful while still close to what we needed. A supermarket was about 10 minutes away. A couple of times I bought food and they let me cook it in the guesthouse kitchen, which was so kind. They also have a restaurant, with breakfast, lunch and dinner available to order to your room. I felt safe walking around alone as a woman. We stayed for 10 days, and this was the best place I stayed in all of India. My boyfriend was very ill and needed somewhere comfortable to rest, and this was just right. The room was lovely, with a big comfortable bed, a warm shower, a working toilet, plenty of space, clean surroundings, lots of light from big windows, and a stunning mountain view. When my boyfriend was hospitalised, the owner, Stanzin, kindly drove me to and from the hospital several times. He cooked special rice for my boyfriend and brought it to him there. They looked after us so well and made us feel like family. We’re still in touch, and he’s become a real friend after helping us so much out of pure kindness. The price felt fair for what we got, and it was affordable. Please stay here in Leh, it’s the best!
