Location was very good. Rooms were properly organised and service was extremely good and owner was very helpful in nature
Location wise it’s excellent Owner is very helpful but staff needs to learn hospitality. Rooms and washrooms certainly need improvement. Overall stay was okay.
The owner is very kind and helped me with my laundry even when they didn't have service. I'll recommend this place to anyone
Had a wonderful experience! The view was stunning, and the ambience added to the charm of the place. I especially enjoyed the bonfire — it was the perfect setting to relax with some delicious food.
The best hotel in the region, with everything you could possibly ask for. Offers the best views with amazing food. Very cozy throughout the property. The owner is very warm and welcoming.
Very wonderful and peaceful hotel I recommend this hotel to stay very nice and great service food is delicious staff is helpful very nice location enjoy my stay with Gandhi "sParadise it's very wonderful experience clean room and welcome suitable
If you're planning a trip to Dharamkot, this hotel is an absolute must-stay. Highly recommended for anyone seeking tranquility, luxury, and unparalleled natural beauty! Room service was impeccable, with staff going above and beyond to ensure every need was met with a warm smile. But the true highlight was the night view of McLeodganj from the hotel. The twinkling lights scattered across the valley created a scene straight out of a fairytale, leaving me speechless
This hotel offers an exceptional blend of comfort and scenic beauty. The rooms are well-appointed, and the view from the window is simply mesmerizing. Watching the twinkling lights of McLeodganj at night felt like stepping into a dream—an experience that stays with you long after the trip. The staff’s dedication to ensuring a seamless stay was remarkable, with every detail thoughtfully taken care of. Ideal for families or anyone seeking a peaceful retreat, this hotel is a haven of tranquility and charm.
Recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Gandhi’s Paradise, and it truly lived up to its name. I was greeted by a warm, inviting atmosphere that immediately made me feel at home. The decor is charming and tastefully done, with soft lighting and plush furnishings that create a peaceful ambiance. The staff was friendly and accommodating, always making sure I had everything I needed. The hotel’s location was also great, providing easy access to nearby attractions while still offering a quiet, peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle. If you’re looking for a place where you can unwind and feel completely at ease, Hotel Gandhi’s Paradise is the perfect choice. I left feeling refreshed and already planning my next stay!
The staff was polite. All time reception help. Amazing amenities such as snooker, chess, sitting area, sky lounge, karaoke. Staff was helpful in guiding popular spots and locations. Amazing room valley views. All time room service. Amazing food.
They provide variety in services. We had an amazing karaoke night. We enjoyed the sky lounge view. They have a beautiful valley view room. We were lucky to get to play our own music playlist. Amazing, polite and helpful staff.
The location of the hotel is picturesque,staff is also very helpful,rates are reasonable, indoor games such as table tennis,pool, carrom, and karoke is also present. The restaurant in the hotel is also great. The mountain view point great
The ambiance is very good. Apart from this, nature of Manager(Gandhi paradise) is very good and helping. The view from the hotel room is very scenic. Nature of Housekeeper is also nice. It was worth staying at the gandhi property. Definitely i would love to visit again. Thank you hotel Gandhi paradise.
Great experience for my family. Since this was my first time in Mcleodganj, I booked initially only for 2N and then extended for 2 more Nights. The hotel is located on way to Dharamkot, and has a great view of the Mcleodganj even from rooms. Food was good, and the hospitality was excellent, open air restaurant was amazing. Ignore few negative reviews, as even I felt dejected before booking, but the stay here was satisfactory to say the least. Would highly recommend to families with/without kids
😊On the World Tourism Day 😊 Namaste Sanjeev Sir and Team, I would like to express my gratitude to the team at Gandhi's Paradise for Excellent care, Excellent food, Excellent experience ! We are blessed and forever grateful to all of you because the best moments of September'24 have been at Gandhi's Paradise 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵 I am, -Rajesh Budhrani from Pune
One of the worst experience at hotel. There was no water in the washroom. You can't seat in balcony, because always you can see monkey seating on table and chairs.. When we checked out Hk staff told to receptionist,That room slippers are missing,but there was no slippers was available in the room. The guy at reception he was saying I am the manager of the hotel with very rude behaviour. They start checking my bag but didn't not find the slippers..can you imagine when you are paying 5000 rs to hotel and the are checking you bag for 100 rs slippers front of your family and other guests. Same time another guest said ,There was no slippers in his room also . Than manager because little polite ... Never stay in gandhi paradise..this is my suggestion who so ever is coming to dharmshala.. very very rude behaviour by reception staff ( who was saying I am manager).
We a group of 32 spent 3 nights at this hotel. Located in nice place in Mcleod Ganj and with good view of the mountains for each room, however need improvement in the cleanliness especially for families. However service & response of the hotel staff was very good.
Gandhi Paradise Hotel in McLeod Ganj is a gem! Perfectly situated near the main square, it offers convenience and tranquility. The rooms are cozy, the staff is friendly, and the rooftop restaurant serves delectable meals with a breathtaking view of the mountains. Highly recommended for a memorable stay!" -Ritesh
I recently visited this hotel with my family my experience was to good the stuff there is so friendly and fast at service and the best part is the view from hotel it had the best view also the food is amazing there will surely recommend this hotel 💯
Hotel is good with nice location .. staff is very friendly .... Hotel is situated in dense forest of pine , devdar trees... With beautiful nature view... Nag temple and water fall is only walking diatance
Gandhi paradise gave us very homely experience . Rooms were very tidy ,clean and cozy View outside window was unforgettable .and owner mr.gandhi was very nice soft spoken Me and my friends would love to go there again
The hotel was in good approaching way. Staff was good , n helping . The rooms were good and very comfortable. The view from the balcony of the room was wonderful. anyone who is coming to this place must visit this hotel. Thanks
services of the restaurant was very great, view from the balcony was mesmerising. great option for comfortable stay in mountains. Food was delicious with open terrace. The staf dealing was excellent .
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this enchanting hotel in McLeodganj, and I must say it exceeded all expectations. The highlight of this gem is undoubtedly the breathtaking mountain view that greeted me every morning. But what truly sets this place apart is the exceptional care provided by Mr. Sanjeev Gandhi. His warm hospitality was truly commendable.
Worst experience No one at reception Did not get the same room what i booked
Very good view from the property but service was not so good.
Too old all
Lift, wifi and tv was not working. The room was given 3 floors down but lift was not working. The owner /manager was very rude.I booked an ac room but i was given non ac room.
Decided to stay another 2 weeks. Best hotel for me because of location and access for my needs. Great accommodating staff who treat me with respect and as a guest in their home
So many bed bugs, flooded bathroom, no complement water (to be charged), wrong information on access (actually 1.2km from the centre, but not 0.5km), insufficient manner of the reception desk, unclear information on the booking sites, etc.
It was an ok stay, neither good nor bad. Hotel was locate at a good height and offered good scenic beauty but reaching there was a hassle from the Mall Road. Overall I would rate the hotel 5/10
Our stay was amazing as was the location. Sanjeev our host made every effort to look after us and went out his way to accomodate us. We felt special and spoilt meeting lots of his friends as he showed us around several sites you would never encounter as a tourist on your own.
Booked this hotel for 2 nights. As it was peak season, we had little options for hotels at McCleod Ganj. Despite booking through Expedia, the management sent a private email asking for my credit card details. Check in was indifferent. The hotel is a 20 minute walk through an unlit dusty, corrugated road. The floors of the hotel were built on an incline. No elevators. The rooms were not made up, there was no bottled water replaced and towels were not changed. At checkout, we had to wake the staff up. After confirming that I was paying through Expedia, I received a call on the way to Amritsar asking to pay for my stay, which I managed to do by sending the amount with our cab driver. Never again!
Je n'ai pas dormi dans cet établissement qui est en travaux... C'est impossible de rester dans ce lieu et j'ai d'ailleurs demandé l'annulation de ma réservation. Cet hôtel est situé à l'extérieur de la ville ce qui peut être un avantage si on recherche le calme mais il est très difficile d'accès et loin de tout. Les travaux vont durer longtemps car il s'agit d'un agrandissement par le dessus. Il y a énormément de bruit, de poussière et de nuisances pour l'instant. Vérifier bien que tout soit rentrer dans l'ordre avant de vous aventurer là bas, je trouve vraiment inadmissible que cet hôtel soit ouvert actuellement. A bon entendeur...
I paid for 3 nights, when I got there I immediately started to search for another hotel. I found the Surya hotel at the same price much much better (at McLeod) - by the way excellent hotel) The paradise is not hotel, it is in the middle of no where, noisy renovations turned the neighborhood into industriel zone. Lousy facilities.
遠すぎる。急な坂道を延々登る。山登り好き以外不向き。 水回りが恐ろしく不衛生。常に床がビショビショで、自分で掃除しろとでもいうのか、大きなモップが備え付けられていた。トイレットペーパーは3つとも泥だらけだし、替えをお願いしたら、投げてよこす始末。 工事中で騒音が酷く、インド人オーナーやインド人上級従業員が、目下らしき従業員や工事スタッフに威張り散らしているのが露骨過ぎて、見ていられない程不愉快。 極め付けは、頼んでもいないのに、帰りの空港へ従業員の車で送るとオーナーが突然言い出し、1200ルピー払わないと出さないと半ば脅しに近い言いよう。行きの料金や相場を知っていることを告げ、しばらく口論の末 ようやく相場でおさめましたが、酷いにも程がある。 町中にもっと清潔で安い宿はたくさんあります。こんなところは、紹介すら取りやめにすべき。とにかく酷いところでした。
Entretien du bâtiment minimal.pas de vélo de prêt comme il était spécifier sur la pub.et les deux bouteilles d'eau par jours payantes.
部屋からの眺望はすばらしいです。ホテルのスタッフもフレンドリーで、ルームサービスも迅速でした。部屋は手頃な広さで、ちょうどよいですね。 問題点としては、室温が10度までさがるが暖房がないこと。最初心配しましたが、寝るのには支障がありません。湯たんぽの効果は絶大。 タクシーの運転手が場所がわからなくて困りました。必ず地図を印刷してもっておいたほうがよいと思います。 ホテルの名前が大仰な感じがしましたが、オーナーの弁では、ほんとうにマハトマガンジーの親戚らしいです。
This is a perfect choice if you're planning to visit Dharamkot, since Gandhi's Paradise is located in a peaceful area on the way to this place. It's about 15-20 minutes walking from McLeod Ganj's main square and market, and I would say about 25-30 minutes from Dalai Lama's palace, but during the night or in the evenings it is much more convenient to take a taxi from McLeod Ganj (fixed rate - 100 Rs). The room is very clean and light with a stunning view of Himalayan mountains from the window. The wi-fi signal works perfectly - but only outside. Overall I would recommend this place to anyone who seeks a perfect and silent place to see both Dharamkot's mountain peaks and McLeod Ganj.
We had booked 7 rooms for 1 night under room only plan. We had been to Chandigarh & Manali before reaching Dharamsala. Thereafter we were to head towards Dalhousie. The rooms of this hotel were the smallest compared to the other places that we stayed. Service was slow. Even drinking water was not provided in the rooms. Food was ok. The restaurant was not big enough to accommodate our entire group & we had to wait till the previous group was through with their supper. Service was far from desirable. Tea maker was there in the rooms but without the cups & spoon. Staff was very much rationing the tea / milk sachets & towels. While the view of the valley is the best from this hotel, reaching the place is like going on a never ending journey. If you are service oriented (especially in hospitality sector) then money will follow as a byproduct & word of mouth publicity will be good & effective.
The hotel was nice , the view from the balcony was really awesome the staff was really helpful. A couple of things were a bit of a concern , the room locks and latches were not the best quality and my room could even open by the neighbors keys. Rest everything was very pleasant ..
No where close to McLeodganj. A long uphill walk back to the hotel on a dark, dangerous road. Very cold with no heat in the restaurant or exterior hallway. We paid a premium price for a room way down on the bottom level next to a construction site with access by an extremely steep stairway with no railing (5 flights to our room). When we asked to move to a room that required less climbing of stairs, (we are 60 and 62 years old) Mr. Ghandi requested more money. One of us got food poisoning and threw up all night after eating veg biriani from the hotel kitchen. A self described luxury hotel, this place provided no house keeping, clean towels, or clothes line for a weeks stay. The small electric heater barely kept us warm. When we wanted to check out Mr Ghandi insisted that we pay cash, luckily we checked our email and saw that Hotels.com had already charged us!!!! There are many nicer places to stay in McLoedganj that costs much less and are located within the town.
The stay at the hotel was very much satisfying. The way hotel is built is very unique as it descends from top to bottom while reception being at the top floor. The view out of balcony of the mystic bhagsunath was an added cherry on cake. We all as a family just loved it.
