Old Road Mansion - Hotel in Leh

We stayed here for three nights and it was the best hotel throughout our journey. To start with, excellent hospitality of the owner which trickles down to the staff. Perfect location- just next to the main market. Very spacious and beautifully kept rooms. Amazing food- Had breakfast and dinner, great taste. Spacious parking- in the basement. Finally, reasonably priced for all the services you get. A must stay place that will create memories forever.

I loved my experience at Old Road Mansion hotel. I’m so thankful to Mr Notsang , that he provided us the room on urgent basis. …Great experience. Thank you for the hospitality. The rooms were large hygienic and staff was polite and respectful as well. Would definitely recommend a visit especially considering value for price! Best part… it’s very near to the main market.

The rooms were very spacious and nice. The food was also very delicious and they even specifically asked every person staying in their hotel that if they want non-veg and then they made the amount of non-veg wanted by the people.The waiters were also very friendly and they even recommended places to visit and showed videos about the places. The food service was also fast.

I recently stayed at Hotel Old Road Mansion in Leh, Ladakh, and it was an unforgettable experience. The charming ambience, with modern comforts, instantly captivated me. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making me feel right at home. A special mention goes to the owner, Norbu ji, whose kindness and personal attention made my stay even more special. The rooms were clean, offered stunning mountain views, and the delicious breakfasts highlighted local flavors. Overall, the hotel felt more like a home than a hotel, and I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Ladakh.

The owner and staff are present and attentive, but that’s where the positives end. The rooms are filthy—cigarette butts in the bathroom and the bathroom had not been cleaned for a long time. A layer of dust on sidetables, dirty floor-mats (that got exchanged though), dust balls, old food wrappers, and trash like dirty slippers, fruit stones and empty water bottles under the bed. No air conditioning, no fan, and a window that opens directly to the street, sacrificing privacy even on the so-called quiet side of the building. I emailed photos of the mess to the owner and my travel agent, but received no response, not even an apology. The food? Largely disappointing. Only one dish was good; the rest fell flat. Despite the hotel being mostly empty, noise levels were high, thanks to a lack of consideration for privacy among other guests. I accepted to stay two nights due to the kind and ever present owner who tried his best to make me enjoy my stay. However in the hinsight I should have left immediately. Kindness has to be followed up by action.
