Stay in Ladakh
Leh offers many kinds of accommodation to suit almost
every pocket and preference. Most of the hotels are family-run
establishments and, therefore, service is more personalized than
professional. Hotels are classified into A, B,C and D/economy categories
while guest houses are divided into upper, medium and economy class. Tariff
for A category hotels generally include all meals, offering a choice or
combination of Continental, Chinese and Indian cuisine, with one or two
local fares thrown in for variety.
The guest house is a less formal accommodation, offering rooms in a part of
the residential house or its annexe, where the guests can share the host
family’s kitchen and living room for meals. Apart from the reasonably low
tariff offered for accommodation ranging from very good to merely basic, the
guest house system also provides an opportunity for the tourists to see and
experience Ladakhi life from the inside.
In the newly opened areas of the region - Nubra, Changthang and the Drok-pa
area - tourist infrastructure is not yet adequately developed. The State
Tourism Department has started development of accommodation facilities like
tourist complexes and hiker's huts at various places in these areas.
However, in some of these places, especially in the Nubra Valley, tourists
can stay as paying guests with some families who have set up paying guest
house in their homes under a State Government sponsored incentive scheme.
For visitors to Tso-moriri Lake, accommodation is available near Korzok
village in tented camps, which spring up every season. Similar camps are
available in various parts of Nubra valley.
During the peak tourist season i.e. early June to mid-September, it is
advisable to book hotel rooms in advance. By late September, hotel rooms are
easily available as the tourist rush declines. However, tourists planning
winter trips may have to book accommodation in advance so as to ensure
provision of heating arrangements during the period of their intended stay.

structure in different categories of accommodation in Leh area, refer
