Shangri La Hotel Lhasa

The luxurious Shanrgi-La Hotel Lhasa is a stylish urban retreat conveniently located between the Potala Palace and the Norbulingka Palace. With its high ceilings, warm earthy tones drawn from traditional Thangka paintings, striking bell-like chandelier reminiscent of a prayer wheel, and the centrepiece of a gleaming, expansive lounge, the hotel has made a conscious effort to pay homage to traditional Tibetan design and architecture.

The hotel offers accommodation in 279 spacious rooms and suites that combine contemporary style with floral patterns and symbols that reflect traditional Tibetan accents and complement the modern décor. While some rooms overlook the Potala Palace, other rooms are designed to overlook the distant mountains.

The impeccable restaurants at The Shangri La Hotel Lhasa cater for every taste. The gourmet experiences include Altitude, an all-day restaurant serving international cuisine and Shang Palace, a chic speciality restaurant serving Cantonese and Sichuan specialities in a contemporary setting and a Tibetan Tapas Bar and Lounge offering a fine selection of wines, spirits as well as authentic Tibetan cuisine. Other facilities at The Shangri-La Hotel Lhasa include a lounge bar, an indoor swimming pool, a well-equipped fitness centre, an oxygen lounge and a Spa that offers reflexology treatments and holistic therapies based on Tibetan and Western techniques.
