Zostel Banikhet (Dalhousie)

If you are reading this I am sure you also want your Dalhousie trip to be one of your best journeys. Well, for me it was. I travelled to Dalhousie and the famous places nearby in the first week of November. Yes, it is an off-season but you can never get enough of the perennial beauty and tranquility of mountains. A mountain expedition has always been an adventurous trip but this time it was more special for me not only because I was travelling with my friends but also because of our place of stay "Zostel Banikhet". When we were planning our tour I wasn't rooting for this place but as soon as we arrived there, all the negative comments I read on the internet and all of my doubts vanished in seconds. This place has everything we were looking for great location, a swimming pool, bonfire, projector, card games, guitar, and beautiful rooms with a mountain view all this at a decent price. Amazing... right!! All thanks to our gracious host 'Rohan' who helped us with everything. He arranged a personal cab for us to travel to Khajjiar, D ainkund, Chamera, and Dalhousie. He took us on a beautiful sunset trek, we saw constellations in the night, made 'sarso ka saag' for us, and believe me 'samosas' of banikhet is a must try also most importantly he kept us updated with cricket's live score. I was overwhelmed by our welcome in banikhet. Our host and people there are really friendly. So if you are travelling with friends and want your journey to be as memorable as mine you should definately consider giving a shot to "Zostel Banikhet".

The vibe is amazing. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Food is good but the best part is the ambience. Try meeting new people or bring your own to have fun. Shoutout to Rohan the ***ager, a value addition to the whole experience
