Guesthouse

I'm staying at a small guesthouse.

I too am staying at the guesthouse.

We are all staying at the guesthouse.

Where is the guesthouse?

The guesthouse is that way.

We're all staying at the guesthouse.

The wine house and the guest house were hung with curtains shining bright against the wooden walls.

Low-season competition between the several backpackers and many guesthouses in town keeps prices down, but in high season expect steep price hikes (except at the backpackers) and book ahead.

For me, in any case, Ladakh seemed a beautifully unfallen place next to the blue-glass shopping malls of modern Lhasa, the global village of pizza joints and guesthouses that is urban Nepal, or long-isolated Bhutan with its chic new hotels.

And Ms. Davies’s 7,000-square-foot guesthouse, the only building from the original estate to survive, is already a favorite among card-playing foursomes and others who want to lounge on the second-story deck and watch dolphins bob in the whitecapped waves.
