House Of Views Bir

I had a great stay at House of Views Bir and would happily stay here again. The location is hard to beat—right in the heart of Bir, above June 16th Café, with everything within easy walking distance. One thing I was especially grateful for was the air conditioning. I stayed in May when temperatures were quite high, and having AC made a huge difference to my comfort. Naman, the owner, was incredibly hospitable and genuinely cared about making sure guests were looked after. During my stay, there was some noise from local neighbours slamming doors, but he took my concerns seriously and did his best to address the issue immediately. What really stood out was how helpful and accommodating he was. He helped me with my suitcase, allowed me to store my luggage after check-out, and even tried to coordinate with taxi drivers heading back towards Dharamshala so I could return a key I'd accidentally brought with me from my guesthouse in McLeod Ganj. In the end, I sent it via Delhivery, but I really appreciated him going out of his way to help. To top it off, because I had several heavy bags, he arranged for his driver to give me a lift to the bus station for my FlixBus departure, which was a thoughtful gesture and made travelling much easier. Overall, a comfortable, centrally located stay with a host who genuinely goes above and beyond for his guests. Highly recommended.

The only thing I'd mention is that the property sits on the main street, so if you're a light sleeper, it's worth bringing earplugs. Something to note - it's cash payment only for non Indian citizens.

Immaculate location, right above the famous June 16 cafe. 2 mins walk to the landing site with other famous cafés very close by as well. Owner is very helpful, the helping staff is helpful and well behaved as well. They can also help arrange vehicles. The room has all necessary amenities with a TV equipped with subscriptions to major platforms.

The curtains are a bit light hence the room is fully bright at 5AM, making it pretty difficult to stay asleep. It’ll be good if one induction or burner and few basic utensils can be added to the kitchen. Currently, there are kettles and crockery but adding utensils to actually cook food would be better.

Very quiet and comfortable. Access to facilities such as fridge, microwave, iron and ironing board, filtered water, cooking utensils, lounge area with a view.

Nothing

The Homestay was very cozy , comfortable and lively. Our host Naman was extremely polite and friendly. The artistically designed homestay was nothing short of spectacular. I highly recommend the place.
