10/10 Excellent
"Great property with a bunch of complimentary activities and free bikes to ride around. Very close to the Sumur sand dunes. The food is just basic, they could do better in this department. However, it is easy to get a reservation at Kyagar that is right next door and has better food in my opinion. Accessibility for the elderly or those physically challenged could also be better, some of the stairs were too high for my mother to use with easy, the staff was very receptive of this though and took pictures immediately of the stair to share with the management. The staff was great! I would recommend"

The staff were exceptionally friendly, courteous, and always willing to help with a smile, providing excellent service throughout our visit. The breakfast was delicious with a variety of options. The overall atmosphere of the hotel was warm and welcoming. The hotel is a 2 km drive to the Leh market or a 1.5 km walk; we used taxi arranged by the hotel for drop-off and pickup for a very reasonable fee. We took bike and car rentals via the hotel, and it was a great experience. I would recommend Hotel Trikaya to friends and family. We look forward to staying here again in the future"
