Tibet Guesthouse 虎跳峡卓玛客栈 offers accommodation in Tiger Leaping Gorge Scenic Area. It is located a 10-minute walk from Middle Section of Tiger Leaping Gorge. Free WiFi is available in all areas.

The guesthouse is a 5-minute drive from Tiger Leaping Gorge Thin Strip of Sky Point. Tiger Leaping Gorge Tourist Centre is located a 45-minute drive away.

Hospitality was above and beyond. Warm welcome from the hosts, including adorable friendly Corgi dog. Every dish we ordered at dinner was delicious! Pancake for breakfast was yummy and comforting. Sandwiches packed to go on the day of our hike were just what we needed. Clean room, warm at night. Comfortable beds. Balcony off every room with an outstanding view of the mountains. Washing machine on site. Steps from the start of the Tiger Leaping Gorge Trail. If your doing the trail, be sure to get an excellent coffee near the sky ladder-it happens to be run by the host’s son and is delicious!

    Lovely warm beds and warm shower. Clean facilities. Really nice communal area with a fire place. The host family is so so nice. They served us hot fruit tea when we arrived. Delicious Korean, Western, or Chinese food.
