Songtsam Linka Retreat Lhasa

Built on a hillside, our retreat offers spectacular views of the nearby Potala Palace. From the hotel’s slaked lime colored walls to the indigo carved windows and fish-fin shaped facade, all of these architectural details pay great respect to traditional artisans, Tibetan culture, and ancient wisdom. The interior design is inspired and derived from the lifestyle of Lhasa natives; stylistically decorated with exquisite Thangka paintings and wall tapestries to revive an environment typical of noble families living centuries ago. Lhasa means "Blessed land" in Tibetan language, with vast terrain, abundant water, fertile valley soil on both sides of Quji River, making it suitable for farming.…

Songtsam Linka Retreat Lhasa pays tribute to local artisans and ancient culture with its Thangka paintings, Tibetan carpets, and unique fish-fin-shaped façade. The restaurants serve Western favorites as well as traditional dishes made with yak meat (try the house-made sausage or the tenderloin with chili sauce and chopped scallion). And each of the 45 elegantly decorated rooms are equipped with oxygen concentrators to help with the altitude. Tibet is, after all, the highest region on the planet.
