My husband and I quickly booked our room via Booking.com before all accommodations were sold out due to the Dalai Lama's scheduled talks. We were indifferent about staying at a yoga house. That quickly changed once we decided to do our first rooftop yoga session overlooking the snow-capped peaks; the instructor, Ravi, was phenomenal- the best instructor we have ever taken a class with. In fact, he listened to our needs and constructed the class to suit them. He knew how to apply pressure to increase flexibility without causing pain and was an expert in his field, having studied for many years (not like some terrible yoga instructor imposters in India). Next, the room was the cleanest you will find in India and the toilet was brand new and super clean. The hot shower was a godsend and the pressure was perfect. The balconies that each room have are a great touch and we shared many toasts on them, watching birds and monkeys. The hotel is far enough from the main road so you will enjoy peace and quiet and won't hear any honking or breathe any pollution. The restaurant is very accommodating and Bella, the owner's adorable dog, will greet you here if you are lucky. Ram is also incredibly friendly and very knowledgable about the area. I would highly recommend to all. Can't get any better!

This is not an ordinary hotel or guesthouse, this place is so much more. The owner Ram and the staff (Nileesh) makes you feel special and at home. The spectacular view from room makes every day unique with the beauty from nature that will appear in front of you. The beautiful Yoga Shala “Sky Shala” invites you to experience yoga in many levels with the yoga teacher Sahil that guide you safely and with flexibility to suite all participants. Thank you for your hospitality, looking forward to come back.

I lived at Ram yoga house for eight months from March to October during Covid.

A magical place with a rooftop yoga Shala, clean and spacious rooms & excellent food in the shadow of the Snow capped Himalayas with majestic views of the valley to Dharamasala and beyond.

A lovely short 5 minute walk down to the village of Mcleodganj and a shortcut down to the temple and Kora of his Holiness13th Dalai Lama.

Ram is the perfect host.
He is very generous and encourages the use of his facilities. A great place to host your next yoga or mindfulness retreat in the Himalayas.
We even did a Thai Yoga massage course with Ram, which was wonderful

The airport is a short distance away with registered taxis taking you straight to Ram‘s Yoga house.

This hill station of Mcleodganj has so much to offer with great shopping, meditation and hiking.

I highly recommend staying at Ram‘s yoga house on your next visit to Mcleod Ganj
🙏🙏🙏

Wow, this place...when I arrived in Dharamsala after a long drive from Delhi, it was a blessing to receive such a warm welcome to this peaceful, clean and beautiful place. It is located just outside the center of McLeod Ganj (one of the best centers in Dharamsala), but when you stay here it is absolutely peaceful and quiet. The view from the room is breathtaking and there is an amazing rooftop yoga hall where you can take daily yoga classes from yoga teacher Sahil, he is a really good and experienced yoga teacher. Ram, the great owner of this place, makes sure you get everything you need and you can ask him anything if needed. So overall a great place that I would definitely recommend!

Ram yoga house is one of my favourite places in McLeod Ganj. I often stay here and have brought groups to this little oasis. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the busy streets, Ram Yoga House is a slice of Himalayan heaven. The Yoga Sala overlooks the hills and valleys and feels like you are in the clouds. Ram is an amazing host. From yoga teaching, to Ayurvedic courses and meals, he has created a place that makes you feel like you are home with all the amenities you need. I have been so welcomed here that I feel like I am family. Highly recommend staying here short term or long term if you are traveling through McLeod Ganj.

This is the best place I have stayed at in years! The yoga room up top is such a plus to be able to do my practices in. The view is also something else! The staff is incredible. People that I will continue to stay in touch with. So friendly and very accommodating. They had amazing recommendations as to what to do around town. The beds are SO comfy! I loved this since I have been traveling around in not so comfortable places. It’s also right next to town so an easy walk to food and the Dalai Lama’s temple yet tucked away enough for a little bit of silence. I Highly recommend Ram’s Yoga House! 😊

Home Away From Home

The location has amazing views and Ram and his staff will make you feel at home. If you are looking for clean accommodations, excellent vegetarian food, chi masala, and yoga from a rooftop yoga studio overlooking the Himalayas, this is where you need to stay. Yoga is offered twice a day and Thai Yoga Massage courses are also available. I will definitely be returning for many more stays! ❤️

I decided to bring a group for a 7-day Tai Chi, Yoga and Meditation retreat all the way from Ireland in October 2019 (Pre-Covid). It was a fantastic experience and Ram’s place was the perfect venue! My 14 guests were simply blown away by the incredible Himalayan views from their en-suite rooms and location near to all the sights of Mcleodganj and only 10 mins walk from the Dalai Lama temple complex.

I taught the Tai Chi and Meditation sessions and Ram’s excellent instructors held yoga classes to suit varying levels of experience. Rajesh cooked delicious meals for my group and even hosted an Ayurvedic cookery class with Dr Divya. Ram was a friendly and helpful host who greeted them with and took us on a daytrip to the monolithic temple and Kangra fort. We befriended a number of locals including a Monk who works for the Dalai Lama and Yeshi, the director of Tibet World - where we attended a Tibetan Cultural evening and singing bowl session. Some of my group stayed on afterwards and we were very fortunate to attend live teachings by HH the Dalai Lama. It was a truly special trip.

De très loin le meilleur hotel que j'ai fréquenté en Inde. Ram et son staff sont très accueillants, les chambres sont propres et confortables, l'eau vraiment chaude et le wifi vraiment "High Speed". Mais surtout, que c'est calme! L'emplacement est un peu compliqué à trouver mais idéalement situé en plein coeur de McLeodGanj.

Personalised service, large rooms, wonderful views and WiFi

Top notch views. Spacious rooms. Nilesh the cook rustles up tasty and amazing meals, right from parathas to juices to porridge and more. Laundry inexpensive. WiFi works. Yoga on the terrace in a professional yoga hall. Overlooking HHH Dalai Lama’s abode. Hearing chants and prayer bells in the morning. 5 min walk from the market and restaurants. Salil, the yoga teacher is sincere and expert.
Comfortable and budget stay. Can’t get better. Tea kettle. Mini fridge. Large study table.

Ram & his staff made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. We upgraded to a larger room with an incredible view overlooking Dharamshala and had a fridge and kettle in room for afternoon teas and morning coffees. The food at this guest house is also amazing and they will go above and beyond to make sure you have all you desire and need.

Lastly, it is very close to all the shops and cafes but still quiet enough to have a cozy and peaceful, shanti stay... Oh and the yoga hall is beautiful. 💜🕉✨

“The view from the accomodation is incredible! You'll get amazing mountain views, see the valley, monkeys and eagles. The sun shines beautifully in the morning and even the sunsets are great. The staff is lovely and super friendly and offer great...”

We are packed and ready and don't feel like leaving this lovely room at Ram Yoga House - bright and welcoming, the room was a workation (great wifi!) and a vacation base...with stunning expansive views of the mountains, magical sunsets, great vibes from the surrounding monasteries (including views of His Holiness the Dalai Lamas monastery), lovely helpful staff (Pooja and Nilesh) and host (Ram), away from all the bustle yet just a short walk from the Macleodganj main square, we feel very lucky to have found this place. Highly recommend it

Ram-ji was super nice and helpful and so was his staff Nilesh. They were able to take care of my needs. The room was clean and comfortable and only 2 minutes walk from the Dalai Lama Temple. The views from the top floor are great for sunrise and sunset against the Dhauladhar Mountain Range of the Himalayas. They also provide yoga classes which is awesome.

Wow, everything about this place was perfect. It was clean, it has the best views of MacLeod and it really feels like a home. The guests that come to this place are rather calm people that sleep on time, don't party and do yoga in the morning. The yoga teacher, Sunny, was very skilled, patient and caring. And Nilesh makes the best homecooked food that tastes like love. Ram, the owner, also was an amazing warm, open and honest and calm company to share the house with. I will miss this place and definitely come back soon. It's not the cheapest place around, but the given the quality it's worth it. Thanks so much, Ram, Nilesh, Sunny and Manju!
