What is the accommodation condition in Tibet?

We should make your attention that the equipment and conditions of hotels in Tibet are not as well as that in the rest parts of China. If you would like to book a 5-star (or 4-star or 3-star) hotel in Tibet, you should notice that the standard may not as the same with the one you always anticipate.

 

In Lhasa, lodging ranges from guest houses to the best five star hotels. In Shigatse, Gyangtse and Tsetang, the highest standard is three star hotels. In Dingri and Zhangmu, the highest are two stars while in other smaller or remote areas, accommodation is mainly guest houses.

 

Asking your travel advisors to arrange your accommodation in Tibet is a better way for your Tibet travel.

 

Separate room does not equip internet service except some luxury rooms for tourists. If you would like to surf the internet, you should go to the business center or the separate internet café in the hotels.

However, in some remote areas, the internet is not accessible due to the limited condition.

 

Generally speaking, we would not recommend you to accommodate in the local houses because of the inferior accommodation conditions, the taboos in the Tibetan culture and the safety considerations.
