On arrival I was blown away by the views from reception. The rooms are spacious and well furnished, again with wonderful views. That's where the good news ends. Staff are surly and miserable. The meals - what can I say? You felt as though the food was rationed. Little, if any, fresh fruit at breakfast and dinner dishes that were... More

I went to Dharamshala in peak season, and it was a haste decision for a weekend. We forgot to book a hotel. After reaching mcleodganj, we started searching for hotel. The only one good we found was surya hotel. The rooms were smelly, like the cheap ones in hill satations. The room service for fine, not great nor bad. The... More

As all the reasonable hotels in the area were full and I had not pre-booked my hotel, I had no choice but to stay at this hotel. The only good thing about this hotel is its central location in the hills. The views from the top are simply lovely. I did not like the first room so they upgraded me... More

This hotel has so much potential but really it is just poorly managed. The hotel is extremely well located with stunning views and right in the heart of McCloudganji providing great access to the markets, restaurants and coffee shops and monastery of the Dalai Lama. Unfortunately that is where the good bit ends! While they are clearly upgrading the hotel... More

The location of this hotel is great. It's supposed to be the nicest hotel in McLeod Ganj and I don't doubt that but by Western standards, it was definitely lacking. The rooms and bathroom were modern and comfortable but my biggest gripe was that I was there in December and even then the hotel kept ALL their windows open. I... More

The location is excellent as it is right in the main market. Everything is walking distance. Jimmy's kitchen & Mclee are both famous restaurants which are walking distance from the hotel. The Dalai Lama's temple is also very closeby. The rooms were pretty spacious. They are clean. I have one suggestion, that they should get their rooms carpeted as in... More

I've stayed in Surya Hotel in 2000, 2009 ,2010 with groups. And very sorry I have to say, no matter about service, equipment , there has been no any improvement since 2000. Room is not very clean, very humid of course, sometime you can see some little animals in room, like spiders. sometimes no hot water offered because their equipment... More

I stayed here for 2 nights in November 2012. The first room we were shown to had a window completely missing! We took the second room we were offered but is hadn't been cleaned properly - crumbs on the chairs, a hair in the bed. The room was very shabby, paint peeling off and the curtains were dirty from mould... More

After a very long drive from Amritsar, we arrived very late at night. There were 35 of us on a trekking holiday. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was very tidy, beds comfortable but the bathroom let it down with a broken bolt on door and decor a bit tired. The view from my window looked out... More
