Lhasa is a capital of Tibet, its largest and busiest city. Thousands of tourists arrive in Lhasa every year. There are accommodations of various levels of comfort.

The key factor of selecting the right Lhasa hotel for you is location. We highly recommend choosing hotel in Old Town – the historical center of the capital.
