The highlight was the breathtaking, crystal-clear view of Kanchenjunga right from my room window—it made every morning unforgettable. The staff were incredibly polite, welcoming, and always ready to help. Their warm hospitality truly made me feel at home. The service was excellent, with a genuine homely touch that made the entire experience even more special.

I had visited Sittong on the end of May'26. My over all experience was good but below are the list of Pros & Cons I would like to highlight. Since the weather is a bit unpredictable, regular room maintenance is required to ensure a comfortable stay. Pros: 1. The location was excellent with a great view. 2. The caretaker was very helpful and supportive. 3. The food quality was good, and a variety of dishes were served based on the guests’ requests. 4. The cottage owner, Amitava Da, is also a very nice and courteous person. Cons: 1. The room requires pest control as there are a lot of insects inside. 2. Additionally, the floors are wet, which is creating a somewhat claustrophobic and uncomfortable feeling.
