日喀则藏隆大酒店

For what appeared to be the only hotel in the town, this hotel does a perfectly good job, and seems to cater well for the the number of tour groups going through it. It would appear to exist solely for the purposes of the traffic through to Base Camp and has adapted to suit. There is a small clothing shop inside and outside the hotel as well as a tea shop (a bonus for a place in the middle of nowhere........). The rooms were perfectly functional and the dining room catered well for the volume of people going through - the food was good, plentiful. The bar was quirky - it was cheaper to buy a litre bottle of Baileys (they didn't appear to sell it by the glass) than to buy one of the miniatures. The internet was down, but at least they are trying to cater for their market, which is mainly European/Australian/American. Really have no major problems with this one.

The city is not nice. There one 3 or 4 "hotels" - this is the 'nicest'. This place is not nice but its bearable for a nite or 2 to the intrepid traveler. Only reason to go thru this town is to reach Mount Everest and that may require a nite's stay. Anywhere you stay will be fairly crappy but this is the least painful. High maintenance travelers beware - this is for adventurous folks... Lonely Planet crowd will be more than fine here but Fodder's folks will be hurtin.

Tibet Dingri Zhufeng Hotel-1.5 star hotel. Room and bathroom are dimly lit with bedding etc. consistent with star rating. In other words, don't expect much. The room has no closet and the toilet flush did not work for our room. However, there is a pail for manual flush. Hot water and electricity are not reliable. However, the luke warm shower in the morning was appreciated. In cases of loss of power, there are a few candles and a matchbox for your use. This was the first hotel wherein the silk cocoons we bought were put to use. My wife used the 6 hour instant heat packs as there was no heat provided. Mountain House freeze dried food was planned for dinner but the room service (you have to order and pay at the hotel restaurant) of chicken in spicy sauce, fried spinach and chicken fried rice hit the spot for us--whew!!. You will appreciate the thermos of hot water provided. I did not fully appreciate this service (even when we were in Mainland China last year) until this trip. The hotel has a bar/internet area but I did not see anyone using the facility. I saw some Jack Daniels, Budweiser and some local alcohol beverages on the shelf. Here is picture link of the hotel: http://www.tibettravel.org/tibettravel/Html/20063210136-1.Html

1996年暑假青藏高原之旅，由日喀則出發，經薩迦到定日住在這一間西藏定日珠峰賓館，趕了整天車，晚上才到，好像在沙漢中到達一個綠洲。那晚在賓館餐廳吃的晚飯（好像有一碟揚州炒飯）簡直美味無窮，晚上望上天空，有無盡繁星，令人目眩神迷，一生都不會忘記。 賓館住了很多想上珠峰的登山人士，西人較多，想叫司機開車上珠峰登山基地（絨布寺），司機不肯，說上去四驅車肯定報銷了，留下一點遺憾。

在去珠穆朗玛峰的途中有这么一家宾馆，去住的时候发现被褥没换，但是它情有可原，因为它位于海拔高地区，条件本身不太好，我们可以理解，因为宾馆位于的地理环境和气候和其他的不可以比，它是特殊的，海拔高，气候冷，本身的条件不好，离珠穆朗玛峰只有100公里，这家我可以推荐，因为我之前会告诉他你去那边的时候要带上长袖长裤，服务态度还可以，就是员工少，给你的感觉就是你要找的人它前台也是这个人，服务员是这个人，我发现就有两个人，卫生还可以，最起码晚上会有热水，在那个地区能达到这个条件我觉得很不错了，周边环境很冷的，夏天8月份的时候都需要穿上棉衣，就像现在陕西的11月份的样子差不多。
