Featuring a shared lounge, terrace and views of city, LeHostel is set in Leh, 1.5 km from Shanti Stupa. The property is around 700 metres from Soma Gompa, 2.6 km from Namgyal Tsemo Gompa and 5.7 km from War Museum. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, and organising tours for guests.

We had an absolutely great stay at LeHostel during our visit to Leh, Ladakh! The staff was incredibly helpful and made our trip extra special by organizing amazing tours to Nubra Valley and Pangong Lake. It was great to have one point of contact for everything we needed. The room was comfy, providing a cozy retreat after our adventures. The bed was quite okay, and of course, we couldn't be happier with the electrical warming blanket – a total lifesaver in the chilly Leh weather! The location of LeHostel was perfect – nestled in a peaceful area yet close to the main attractions and markets of Leh. Overall, a great place to stay.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Rainbow Hostelier gives you good rooms with option of Bunk Beds or Private rooms. Rooms are decent with running Hot Water, Wi - Fi and Drinking Water available. The staff is really friendly and helpful especially in their eating area on the Terrace where Anshumann and Anshul cater to your needs. On Saturday, we also partaked in Barbeque night with Live music which was a good experience. The Bonus is the location which is just 10 mins walk from Leh Market. Definitely recommend the place.

    Milam Hostel was a great choice for my stay in Leh. Centrally located, just a few meters from the main market and Leh Palace. Plenty of restaurants, bike rentals & bus stand are in walking distance. The dormitory is spacious with lockers. The beds are very comfty, personal powerplugs next to it and clean bathrooms. Highly recommended while staying in Leh!

    Great location, clean rooms and extremely helpful staff - especially C.A. who took care of us helping with the altitude sickness and provided advice/assistance with booking our trips to Nubra and Pangong. The whole experience was more than just a couple of nights in the hotel - it was much broader and the entire stay in Leh was better, safer and cheaper thanks to the support we've received. Highly recommend - in fact our friends are coming there next month!
