Lake View Hotel

Himachal Pradesh


Rooms (from ₹1000) aren't bad but the main attraction is dining with a view over the garden from which your veggies were probably picked, towards the nearby Nako Lake. The full menu is only available in peak season (May to June) but any time you could snack on the various traveller-oriented pancakes.
