Hotel Blue Pine

Awesome Views. Friendly and Helpful Host with great knowledge of Surrounding Areas. Lovely food. Decent Rooms. One of The Best In the Area. Apt for Large families and Solo alike. Sonam Ji the owner of this Hotel is indeed very good host. Treat his place like a home and you will feel right. Sonam ji has very good local knowledge and grip on his area. He also is very perceptive. He can organize the tours and outings or day trip from this hotel. The Catering also is good food and accommodates small requests if possible. On Busy days its tough for them to accommodate everything. Hotel does remain booked. In hilly high-altitude mountains of Lahaul district one needs to expect comfortable rooms. One needs to know small things are tough to come by and hence super luxury is out of question. This hotel is indeed one of the best in this area. Its comfortable. You must know that the knowledge and experience of the Locals can save your life in such remote Areas. Acute Mountain Sickness while travelling to Bara La Cha and generally in Lahaul or Spiti is expected. Sonam ji has such a keen eye that within minutes of seeing you; he can assess if you are suffering with such sickness. He not only recognised it amongst us for 3 people. But he hospitalised my husband immediately in his car. Hospital is 5 minutes away. He ensured everyone else was given care and remained Hydrated. He also arranged for car at late 10pm; when my husband; after two hospitalisation did not do very well. Sonamji told us to go towards lower altitude even if it meant night travel. He gave the mental support required for us to make it work. He also ensured that the rest of the group felt energised to still remain back and enjoy the stay even though two people had to travel back to lower altitude. He said "yeah to hota hai, the moment they will go to Manali and cross Atal Tunnel they will feel fine; Baki sab sleep well and aap itni door ayein hai to idhar ki achhi jagah dekhein. unko Kuchh Nahi Hoga". The small encouragement like that, and the medical care, and decisions that he help us make, ensured safety and enjoyment. You do need such people with you when you are at remote places. Your money is not for the comfortable stay but for the safety and expertise which is essential at such a place. The stay here is very comfortable is added bonus. Insight: Warm Water with ginger and Honey is good, Food is good, Host is amazing, Rooms are Comfortable with clean nice interiors, Bathrooms are clean and very very good with hot water and great shower. Room Tip: Choose North Facing Rooms on higher floor (but almost all rooms have a view so not to worry); there is no elevator so choose rooms on 1st floor which is ground level for guests. Please go ahead a book without hesitation.

Newer hotel (about 2 years old) in Keylong with good mountain and river views. The rooms have their own balcony with great views. It is set on a ridge with uninterrupted views. The room had a attached bathroom with separate shower area. Courteous and professional staff

Hotel Blue Pine, Keylong Wonderful experience at this hotel and would highly recommend it. Received warm welcome from Sonam ji & Staff. Very friendly & helpful staff. Food is good. The only challenge is the narrow and steep road to the hotel.

We booked two rooms for our family of 4 for 2 nights in May 2022. We had the most wonderful stay! The views from the rooms are absolutely spectacular, especially at sunrise and sunset. We have access to terraces from where too the view is just awe-inspiring. The food was homely and delicious and our only complaint is Blue Pine hospitality made us put on weight from all the eating! :) The management is warm, hospitable and very helpful. There were only two minuses - due to low voltage, heaters are no available in the room. We were instead provided with ample blankets. If you feel the cold easily, this is a consideration. Second - the access road is a little narrow, but it's not truly an issue. Overall a fantastic stay and would recommend this place enthusiastically!

Considering the remoteness of the place, good property. Very clean rooms, courteous staff. Excellent views from the balcony.

The hotel is good with good rooms and clean bathrooms. It's not on the main road and you might want to travel a little inside with narrow roads but the view from the hotel is mind blowing.
