A Local Travel Team in Dharamshala
Dharamshala Stay helps travellers plan trips to Dharamshala, McLeod Ganj and the Kangra Valley -- where to stay, how to get here, what to do, and who to book with -- with the kind of advice you'd get from a friend who lives here.
What we do
We are based in Dharamshala and work with hotels, homestays, trek guides, paragliding operators and taxi drivers across the Kangra Valley. Travellers send us their dates and plans, and we put together the stay, transfers and activities -- then stay reachable on WhatsApp during the trip.
Our service is free for travellers: there is no booking fee. We earn a commission from the properties and operators we book.
Local first
We live and work here.
Transparent
No booking fee, no hidden charges.
Honest advice
We tell you what to skip, too.
Community
Supporting local families and guides.
How we list hotels
Partner properties work with us directly. They show rooms and rates, and we can confirm bookings with them.
Directory listings are well-known stays we describe so you can compare areas, but that are not partners yet. We write the descriptions ourselves, show the property's own published photos with the source credited, never show prices or ratings for them, and label them clearly. If you enquire, we check availability for you or suggest a similar partner stay. Owners can claim their listing at any time.
Sponsored placements, where they exist, are always labelled.
How we write our guides
- Our guides and Q&A are written from local experience and checked against official and news sources -- district administration orders, Forest Department fees, airline and railway schedules. Travel Guides · Questions & Answers
- Things that change often (trek fees, ropeway and toy-train status, flight routes, entry tickets) are marked approximate with the year, and we tell you to check locally when we can't confirm them.
- Every guide shows when it was published and last updated. We review seasonal guides before each season.
- Spotted something out of date? Tell us on WhatsApp and we'll fix it.
