Shangri-La Helv Helu Private Homestay

Location is great, close to everything. Rooftop can see Dafor Temple. Nice and very clean room.

We booked a room for 3 people, really nice, clean and modern hotel. Location is inside the Dukezong city and convenient to look around the shop and walk to the park. High recommend you stay here if want to visit Shangrila

We stayed here for 2 nights. Overall a great place to stay if you want to stay in the old town area. Good points: + The location is the best. Very close and easy to walk into the old town, the Moonlight Square. Not to far to walk from the nearest car drop off. + The boss and the lady boss are very helpful in everything. They also always give us hot water to drink and warm us down every time we come back to the hotel. + The room is very clean and modern. Smart toilet, hot shower is hot and strong. + The electric blanket is working fine. But the room is freezing cold and the heater take a long while to warm it down a bit. Improvement points: - We don't quite like the disposable towels. It doesn't feel very dry. - The room floor is tiled, which means it's always freezing cold.

First of all, the hotel accepts foreigners (as of April 2024). It is centrally located in the old town, and public transportation (limited though it may be) is easily accessible. Of course, there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The room was very good, clean and in good condition, with all the necessary amenities. The staff was kind and helpful, and you may store your bag before check in and after check out. Perhaps one thing to note, is that you shouldn't count on your room having any particular view - my room had a view of the courtyard. Overall, a very good option for those who wish to stay in the "old" town.
