Roof of the World

Roof of the World is a quaint guesthouse set at New Tingri in Southwestern Tibet. Break your journey at this remote settlement en-route to Everest Base Camp about 100 kilometers away. Aptly called Roof of the World, inspired by the far-flung expanse, this modest establishment is one of the world’s highest-altitude hotels set in the protected Qomolangma National Nature Reserve. Experience the warm Tibetan hospitality at this riverside hotel that seeks to serve both determined explorers and the uninitiated. Soak in the calm, earthy-hued, minimal decor with an undertone of Tibetan design elements. Catch up with some good sleep on comfortable beds in the en-suite rooms, before you head out. Swap stories with fellow travelers over a helping of butter tea and snacks at the restaurant. Converse with the amiable local folk to learn about the region steeped in culture and tradition. Witness the beautiful scenery of stunning alpines, valleys, and snow-capped mountains of the region.
