There are some ultra-high end resort hotels starting to open but I hear they are astronomically priced and not worth it.

I have read the same things with regard to when to visit. Springtime (end of March to May is supposed to be really nice) and then autumn when the skies are clear. There seem to be lots of festivals that happen in autumn as well.

I guess the roads can be a bit rough with little in the way of "facilities".
The high end resorts include many things such as a car with a driver and private escorted tours.
Actually a search on the luxury forum here on FT will bring up a few reports and pointers which might help you choose areas to visit (even if you choose budge/moderate priced hotels)
