Hills Tale

It was a great experience staying at the hostel, the host is very helpful. Highly recommended.

One of my favourite hostels in India so far! Warm, cosy, it'll feel like home very very soon. The people are lovely and welcoming, the dorms are sunlit and super comfortable, their cats are the cutest! And great location, so many good places to eat are just a breezy walk away. It's centrally located and yet away from the hustle of the main town square. If you're in Kalimpong and want peace that heals you, look no further.

Absolutely insane Vibe this hostel has!! My review might sound like an exaggeration but honestly I'll be understating the comfort you get from the hosts, and the regulars when you are here. I was in kalimpong for a week. Stayed here for 4 days and booked Buddha Pada for 3 night but still ended up staying last 2 night back here. Buddha Pada is great. No doubt. Peaceful. Good food. But hills tale is a small cute hostel but very homely! I didn't get too many hostels and videos of the vibe cause I was lost in the air. I stayed in their dorm and loved it but honestly their private room is next level!!

Absolutely loved my stay at Hills Tale - the location is perfect and the mountain view from the terrace is beautiful. I stayed in the female dorm and it's such a cute and clean space! The host is also friendly and super chill. They also personalised my stay with city tours that brought me closer to nature, just as I had asked. So glad to have chosen Hills Tale during my visit to Kalimpong. Can't wait to go back soon!

It was such a cozy place! They have a beautiful terrace and a common room as well. The people there were so welcoming. Definitely coming back soon!

Really Awesome place. Considering the price everything was great, the location, the people, the comfort

The only happening and full of livelihood stay I believe.. Thank you to beautiful host.. Nischal & Sabdup bhai, both were friendly at the same time caring brother... The hospitality is amazing..if coming to Kalimpong as a Solo traveller, I would suggest stay atleast 2 day with them and experience the scooty ride road trip service.. taking to amazing non touristy places.. They prepared thupka for all of us strangers which in few hrs became friends 😅. Female dorm is cute and spacious, bedding are comfortable and washroom is totally hygeine. Terrace has a beautiful view and giggling place. Kalimpong is remembered as a Hill Tales from where I took many tales 🌸 Highly recommended, please experience the unexpected things🥹 a family cum frnd time spend..

The place is pretty and centrally located. The beds are super comfy. Nischal is an amazing host, and also a great local guide. We had some really good time with the people I met there!

Crazy crazy place. Amazing people. Totally recommend this place.

I was so impressed by the setup of this place. Most importantly, the bed linens were very clean. It was pouring on the day I visited, and it felt so nice to retreat to a clean and warm bed. The location is very ideal; it is very walkable to both the market places as well as the taxi stand.

נהניתי מאד מהאירוח! אנשים שאוהבים את המקום שלהם ומתוך האהבה שלהם נותנים אהבה לאורחים! אוכל ביתי מעולה!!! חדר מרווח ונקי! ואפילו זכינו לטיול יומי בין האתרים התירותיים המומלצים בעיר. תודה רבה! 🙏❤️

A must go hostel for youngsters especially solo travellers in Kalimpong! You will find a very well curated cultural ambience at the Hostel. Run by talented youngsters with a vision for future including environmental friendly and clean Kalimpong. Should definitely opt for the tour of Kalimpong city by them- enjoyed the customised tour with the very well read and friendly Nischal! Will definitely stay with Hills Tale in future! All the best! ✨

This stay will give you a wonderful experience. It is combination of peace and wilderness altogether. Cleanliness is good, services and recommendation are good too. Food is also very tasty. Give it a try and you won't regret it.

I stayed here for 2 nights, loved it. The room is desinged very well, with different zones for work, relaxing and else. There was dumbell and a bicycle in the terrace, so i could work out. The Hosts are wonderful, we had a nice ride to another village.

Очень замечательное место с музыкальными инструментами и волшебным хозяином. Такой добрый и с большим сердцем. Обязательно остановитесь тут. Прекрасное место 💎

Clean rooms, great location and excellent service. Plus it's got the IT factor and it's not just a stay but the experience of events, people, musical nights, games, local hikes, and travel agency.

Wonderful hostel! Sandup and Arien are great hosts, the atmosphere is perfect and the food they offer was delicious. We stayed in the private room upstairs which is spacious, cosy and really clean. We also liked the roof top and the common area downstairs. Would definitely recommend staying here and come back one time!

Beautiful backpackers hostel, a home away home for travellers. Hosts are humble and very helpful. Good Vibes. Neat and clean, on top of it their ultimate scooty guided tours, must avail.

Had a really awesome week staying at Hills Tale. Place/view was great, rooms were clean and cozy, food was excellent, specially mushroom soup thuppa. The host was excellent, felt like a second home. Met some really cool people during my stay.

Stayed at recently and it honestly exceeded expectations. The vibe is what makes it stand out — super lively, social, and perfect for meeting fellow travelers from all over. The common areas are well-designed and always buzzing with activities, yet you can still find peaceful corners when you need a break. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with all the essentials in place. Host were friendly, helpful, and always ready with local tips or travel suggestions, which made the experience even better. What I loved most was the sense of community — whether it was late-night conversations, group outings, or just chilling with strangers who quickly become friends
