Parvati's Lap Hostel & Camps

+ Even after booking confirmed they cancelled when I reached at hotel. Don't ever book via online this hotel

+ The worst stay I have ever booked in my life. We haven't stayed in the property as we couldn't find the property on the shared property location after walking for around 2hrs. So we had to stay in a nearby home that we found while walking in the middle of the night. Since those stranger people offered to stay in their home we were safe.

- The stay owner is the worst person The guy is not attending the calls. After calling him for 3-4 times he is not ready to properly direct us to the location.

+ M telling you about the stay n no one will let you know about this, like how to reach? After having a taxi still you will have to trek for 1-2 hr. First of all only local peoples are able to drive on that road. They will charge around 1000-1500/-. So plan accordingly,in night it will be difficult to go there ,if you want to stay there you will have to trek before sunset.

- Less people and more insects are there.

+ The property is built beautifully and food was good

- Everything, the stay was really pathetic. The staff was rude and unhelpful. The service was pathetic too

+ This place is very high up in the mountains, so even if you go by cab or taxi, it will drop you at a point which is at the beginning of Lapas village, then from there you have to go by trekking yourself. And if I tell you from personal experience then that track is a bit tough and make sure you have a proper travelling bag otherwise you will face a lot of trouble and there is nothing to roam around there.

- View, Comfortableness and staff also quite good.

+ The view and the staffs are supportive

- Food price is tooo high kindly make food price little lower ….

+ This hostel is really nice, the building and the views from the mountains, a really calm place, but not easy to reach there...

- There is no option, you have to eat at the hostel, that will increase the price of your bill. Very little portions also, for me.

+ The vibe, the furnishings, the architecture, the dogs, the views, the weather, the food, and most of all the people!!! This is a special place. I recommend. I probably didn't ask the right questions or do the right research but I'd not anticipated the steep climb to the hostel and would have arranged to leave some belongings back in kasol had I known. I'm only small and found it difficult. However a guy (admittedly much stronger) with a bigger bag than me absolutely loved the hike and told me he was smiling all the way up, so it also depends on your attitude on the day. Beware that taxis (cars) will not take you up the 4wd track to lapas village but leave you at the bottom of the track where it meets the road that goes to tosh. If you arrange a jeep, it will take you up the track to the village but you'll still need to do the steep hike up through lapas village simply because this hostel is near the top of the village. I'm sure the staff can advise you if you ask.

- The steep hike with my full backpack.

+ The beautiful location, track takes you up one the best view and stay very calm. friendly environment. staying at edge of mountain.

- They are building couples room stay soon. we stayed in dorm yet it was clean and comfortable.

+ The location and the view from the property.

- They don't have wifi

+ This is my second stay at this hostel Awesome view with a cafe to vibe along, offbeat location. Stay at hostel was very accommodating and comfortable host was very polite and friendly, Food is also really good. Must visit place Thank you for hosting me Angad and team.

+ Beautiful place Very high in the mountains feels like heaven

- Everything is lovely in this place

+ Overall, this property is worth visiting if you really want to spend couple of days/weeks just chilling out or you have work from home. They don't have Wifi yet but my Airtel phone hotspot was enough. Property is located in Lapas village which is a traditional Himalayan village with one of the best views in the entire Parvati Valley. There is no cafes/dhabas there, hence you will have to order food from them and they have a wife variety of food items in the menu. Owner is a smart guy and he has organized a nice system of ordering food as well as booking your stay, all with just a click on their website.

- - Food is quite pricey but again, the cost of dormitory is literally pennies (300/350). So will spend around 500-700 on good. Making it 1000 max for your stay per day, which is not bad for anywhere is Parvati Valley. - Staff need to ensure that nobody is playing music on speaker before 10 am and after 10 pm. People don't have their own common or civic sense when they travel in groups. Hence, staff have to tell them to not blast music at night when other guests are trying to sleep. - Owner should work with staff and create few short hikes (2-3 kms) around the property. Currently, there is absolutely nothing to do there other than just sit and relax. Lack of any kind of outdoor activity is not good for a thriving business like this one. - I would have stayed there longer but there was nothing to do that involves nature, hiking, maybe a waterfall trek or anything of that sorts. - The path to the property is 2 ways - Hike on your own for 2 hours or take the 4x4 vehicle that goes through the dusty road and then hike for the last 45 minutes.

+ The view and the staffs are supportive

- Food price is tooo high kindly make food price little lower ….

+ Beautiful view , worth the hike def

+ The views, the fresh air , the food , the dogs , everything about the place is special. You need to experience once in your life.

- Nothing was there to hate or dislike.

+ The location is fantastic, The trekking was worth after reaching . Food and service by their staff was WOW

+ Even after booking confirmed they cancelled when I reached at hotel. Don't ever book via online this hotel

+ Staying at this hostel in Kasol was one of the highlights of my trip. I woke up to stunning mountain views every morning and spent evenings around the bonfire with amazing people. The staff felt like friends, and the whole place had such a warm, laid-back vibe. I didn’t want to leave—can’t wait to come back!

+ Amazing place, view, food and hospitality. A must go for all travellers who are eager to explore the hidden beauty of Himachal Pradesh.

+ Location is awesome.. very neat and clean property… service is 5star. Food toh bohat accha tha jo chaiye wo banake dete hai or bohat tasty khana hai…

+ "Serenity found! The mountain hostel home in Karol village exceeded my expectations. The scenic views, cozy rooms, and warm hospitality made for an unforgettable stay. Perfect for trekkers and nature lovers, this hidden gem offers a tranquil retreat from the city's chaos. Highly recommended!"

+ Best Stay in such a crowded place like Kasol. I really enjoyed the location and the traditional buildings of this stay. Perfect place to spend the weekend and chill. Wifi is missing if u want to work from home. Kitchen has timings from 9.00 am before that u will not get anything. (If u are a morning person it will be a challenge). Need more signages along the way

+ I recently had the privilege of staying at this stunning Himalayan mountain hostel, and I'm still reeling from the experience. The moment I stepped in, I knew I was in for a treat. The cozy mountain cottage-style hostel is nestled in the lap of the Himalayas, offering breathtaking views of the snow-capped peaks and valleys below. *Magical Sunsets* The sunsets here are truly magical. Every evening, I'd sit on the hostel's deck, watching the sky turn pink, orange, and purple as the sun dipped behind the mountains. It was like nature's own private light show! *Amazing Service and Team* The team at this hostel is warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about ensuring their guests have an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt like I was part of the family. The staff were always happy to help, whether it was with trekking recommendations, local tips, or just a friendly chat. *Cleanliness and Comfort* The hostel is spotlessly clean, and the rooms are cozy and comfortable. The beds are plush, and the blankets are warm – perfect for chilly mountain nights. *Trekking and Local Exploration* The hostel's location is perfect for trekking and exploring the surrounding villages. The staff can arrange treks, village tours, and other local experiences that give you a glimpse into the region's rich culture and history. *Overall Experience* My stay at this Parvatis lap was truly unforgettable. The combination of stunning natural beauty, warm hospitality, and excellent service made it a truly special experience. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat in the mountains, look no further!
