This is a GREAT place to stay!
Really friendly staff, great dinner, scenic location overlooking the Indus River... although a little at the end of the Skardu town's main thoroughfare...
I had enquired at the desk if they had shampoo and they said no, but 10 mins later, one of the staff came knocking at my door, perspiring but all smiling, with shampoo. He had ran down to the shop in town just to get me some! Wow!
Dinner was great! I don't remember what I had but it was one of the best meals i've had in the country!
Bath water was FREEZING though, they only have hot water for a certain time of the day.
This place is a very popular choice for expeditioners from all over the world, to K2 and the other ranges... as evidenced by the photos along the hallways... they usually meet up and organise their treks here as well as to meet other trekkers/expeditioners.
Unique Qualities: There is a PTDC office on site.
Comparison: less expensive than average
Directions: At the end of Skardu Town, most people will be able to direct you there.
Price: less than US$20
Theme: Motel
