Purnima Guest House

I booked a one-night stay at this property after being captivated by the photos online, which played a huge role in my decision. The location is slightly challenging to access as you have to climb up stairs, located inside the parking area of old Manali. The property itself is nestled in what appears to be a home-grown garden, with an abundance of vegetables, beautiful flowers, and fruits like pears and apples. The property is quite large, featuring an on-site kitchen and restaurant with both indoor and outdoor dining options. They also have huts available for personal dining experiences. The staff is cordial and friendly, adding to the overall pleasant atmosphere. The corridors are lined with planters, creating a soothing environment. However, there was a discrepancy with my room. The room I booked was different from the one I was given. Upon inquiry, the staff explained that the room I opted for was on the top floor, which had significant heat due to its location and lacked fans. Thus, they assigned me a different room with relatively less heat. While the photos online showed a spacious and aesthetically appealing room, the room I received was smaller and had some maintenance issues. Although the replacement room wasn't bad and also needed some fixing, it didn't match my expectations based on the photos. The management should address these discrepancies to ensure guests receive what they book. Despite this, the stay was pleasant, thanks to the beautiful surroundings and friendly staff. Another thing that can be improved is the on-site restaurant. They don’t accept UPI payment which is a bit trouble. You have to pay cash or you will have to pay extra tax for online transactions.

Spacious rooms, Amazing view. very quiet. Hot water all the time. Beautiful garden to start your morning with meditation. ythe restaurant is really good (little Italy, good pizza's, we loved their breakfast). the location is amazing - since you can enter/go out from two sides - one go straight to the lower part of the street, and one leads you to the upper part of old Manali. we arrived early in the morning, and Om let us check in early. their travel agency offered us trips with the lower price we could find compare to other agencies in old Manali.

A nice hotel in the centre of Old Manali. Great peaceful courtyard and outdoor sitting areas. And a good view from the balconies outside the rooms. The staff are super nice and helpful and can give recommendations and help with taxi booking. There were lots of renovations while we were there, which wasn't as peaceful, but once they're done, it'll be a calm and secluded area, but within a short walk to all the restaurants and shops of Old Manali.

Purnima is a special place with privacy and is nestled between pine trees in the old manali area. We stayed in the duplex , it was well maintained and comfortable. The place is pocket friendly but offers all amenities. The view overlooks the snow covered mountains and you can hear the Baes river flowing all day. Highly recommended for groups, families and back packers.
