About the stay
Dhauladhar View Resort sits on a terraced hillside between lower Dharamshala and McLeod Ganj, so every room looks straight at the snow line of the Dhauladhars. The heated infinity pool and the spa are the reasons to come; the restaurant does good Himachali and Tibetan dishes as well as the usual menu. It is the most comfortable base for families and couples who want McLeod Ganj's monasteries and cafés 15 minutes away without the noise of the market.
