4- and 5-star hotels in Barkot
A shortlist of 4- and 5-star hotels in Barkot, the Himalayan town on the road to Yamunotri. It is for pilgrims breaking the journey, couples and families after a quiet base, and drivers who want a comfortable stop on the Char Dham route.
Staying in Barkot
Barkot sits in the Garhwal Himalayas and has a pleasant summer climate that draws visitors up from the heat of the plains. The area is known for its apple orchards and terraced fields, and visitors can see the ancient Yamuna Temple or take a dip in the river. The town keeps a peaceful, rural atmosphere and is a common overnight stop for the Char Dham pilgrimage, especially for Yamunotri and Gangotri. It is about 50 km from Janki Chatti, the starting point of the trek to Yamunotri.
The hotels on this list are spread along the Yamunotri highway and the main market area rather than in one cluster. Shivlinga Villa, Hotel Rajeev Residency, La Monal Hotel, Vijay Residency and Pine hills resort and restaurant are all within about 2 km of the centre, convenient for the main market, shops and transport. Chakrata Green Hotel And Camping is 32.3 km out on Lakhamandal Road and suits guests who want to be away from town. The mix of 4- and 5-star properties, several with family rooms and parking, works for couples, families and short breaks.

Local taxis and buses also run from Barkot to Janki Chatti, Hanuman Chatti and other nearby points, though it is advisable to book a taxi in advance during peak season.
When to go
The best time to visit Barkot is from March to June, when the weather is pleasant and ideal for outdoor activities, and from September to November, after the monsoon, when the skies are clear and the views are spectacular. Summers, March to June, are mild to warm, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 30°C. Winters, December to February, are cold, with temperatures often dropping to near freezing. The monsoon months, July to August, bring heavy rainfall and the risk of landslides, so travel during this period requires caution.
