Chinese service / Hong Kong prices
A good option for stays in Lhasa. Located in new Chinese area, but adjacent to Potala Palace. Hotel is in good condition. But prices are very high (think Hong Kong levels) but with service standards far below. Very few staff in hotel, and very few can speak even basic English. Horizon Club very poor value. One staff person only. Cannot speak any English. Very basic food offering. St Regis might be a better option? Certainly closer to Tibetan quarter.

各樣設備都很好,特別是設有24小時氧吧。 可惜在不吸煙的房間經常聞到煙味。在控制除煙服務方面仍有改善空間,如果設有無煙房間樓層就更好了。

An oasis at high altitude
We stayed at the Shangri La Lhasa on our recent trip to Tibet. It is located a bit out of the way in terms of sightseeing and restaurants, but the oxygen bar was so appreciated on our second night. The food in the hotel is a bit expensive, but the staff allowed us to create our own menu for snacks on the night of our arrival, and then provided us with a bit of a discount for our breakfast buffets. Very accommodating. The rooms are well appointed and very comfortable.

Close to attractions of Lhasa. Hotel is very comfortable and my only complaint is that I asked for a non smoking room, but my room had an ash tray and matches. That’s not a non smoking room!

Excellent hotel! I got sick because of te height and luckily they had a doctor available 24/7. The facilities and staff service are top notch, cannot complain. You know what you're getting with a Shangri-La and this one won't let you down trust me.

The oxygen lounge is fantastic
It is comfortable 5 star hotel at a decent location but the most important distinguishing feature is the Oxygen Lounge. It is a fantastic amenity and along with the cheerful and experienced doctor, it is a lifesaver for clueless low altitude people who fly in and over exert themselves.

Surprisinglg superior to the St Regis in terms of service staff and efficiency. The 24h oxygen room was a bonus. Room had a great view but not soundproof from the bar/restaurant so you could hear the band at night. Decor is a bit dated and buffet breakfast could use a refresh in offerings. Still it's comfy stay in Lhasa even if it's not the same class as the rest of the hotel chain's properties in bigger Asian cities

Much better than 3.5 stars
I chose the Shangri-la for the chain's reputation & my previous experiences with them, and I got most of what I was expecting. Comfortable & spacious room with a view of Potala Palace, nice amenities, nice service, very good fitness facilities and a great massage at the spa. English is not understood nor spoken by all the staff, so it can take time to get what you want, but it's not a major problem. Fitness facilities & spa were great and the "oxygen room", which is specifically designed to help adjust to the altitude of Lhasa, was a nice extra. Major sights are within walking distance. Gift shop has nice items but exponentially more expensive than similar things in the market. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely return to the Shangri-la whenever possible.

Lovely hotel with many amenities
We spent five nights here. It is not close enough to walk to the old town but is a short cab ride away. The facilities are nice but the staff is seriously undertrained. Every request is a challenge, from making a phone call to ordering room service. The oxygen lounge was a welcome respite.
