Firstly kankebong is an offbit place which will mesmerize you if you are a true nature and mountain lover. in midst, Blooming hills is a home stay in the clouds for real!! it is situated on the ridge of a hill from where you can see 270 degrees of mountains, view of kalimpong, the reli river and the gorge and the Kanchenjunga from veranda of every room!! Even from the bed itself you open your eyes in the morning and sunshine will wave you from the blazing golden kanchenjunga summit!!. If you dont believe how beautiful Blooming hills is , see my pics and it might blow your mind how even it is built on this edge of the hills!! Along with that we enjoyed the food, the staffs, the owner and galore of warm coffee from the homestay kitchen and the puppies jumping around!!. Cannt wait to return there :-)

In Kankebong, this is a top-notch homestay. I stayed here with my family last two days. The rooms were absolutely fantastic, large rooms with balcony . The staff were very professional, dedicated and cooperative. Fresh and delicious food was served. The homestay is highly recommended.

A review long overdue. We, a bunch of 5 friends / colleagues visited Manas’s property around mid Feb-26. We got to know about the place out of word of mouth publicity and booked it for 5 days / 4 nights (and glad we did). We arrived at NJP station via Vande Bharat from Howrah and Manas had booked us a taxi to drive us to the homestay in a very comfortable Ertiga. We arrived at the property late afternoon where we were warmly welcomed by Manas, David (the caretaker) and others. Right from picking up our luggage to getting us unlimited Tea, Coffee and snacks all through our stay, their hospitality was unparalleled. We had a great stay, away from the hustle bustle of the city in a very cozy and well-planned property. I enjoyed my daily morning and evening walks to the small town down the hills where there are couple of shops with very welcoming people ready to serve you Tea, Coffee, Omelettes, Maggie and anything else they have in stock. The food at the homestay was excellent, we tried varied cuisines (local Boroli fish, Chinese, Bengali), local drinks and also had great evenings with Barbeque. Thank you, Manas and team (David, his wife, son, Mama and others whose name I might have missed out) for the wonderful stay. I look forward to visiting you again (and again!).

Blooming Hills is a perfect place to unwind in the quiet surroundings of Kanke Bong. The rooms are neat, cozy, and well equipped with geysers, attached bathrooms, and round-the-clock water supply. Some rooms are duplex, adding more comfort and a unique layout. The Kanchenjunga-view balconies were the highlight — peaceful mornings with misty mountains made the stay truly memorable. If I have time, I would definitely love to visit again for another relaxing nature break!

A Truly Memorable Stay at Bloominghills Homestay Our stay at Bloominghills Homestay was nothing short of exceptional and will remain one of our most cherished travel experiences. From the moment we arrived, everything about this place felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully curated. The location is absolutely fantastic. Nestled amidst nature, the homestay offers a breathtaking, uninterrupted view of Mt. Kanchenjunga, which feels magical especially during early mornings and clear evenings. Waking up to that majestic sight, surrounded by calm and greenery, instantly puts your mind at ease. It’s the kind of place where time slows down and you truly disconnect from everyday chaos. What truly sets Bloominghills apart, however, is the hospitality. The owners are exceptionally gracious, caring, and attentive, making you feel less like a guest and more like a part of their home. Their personal touch, genuine conversations, and willingness to go the extra mile make a huge difference and elevate the entire experience. The food deserves a special mention. Every meal was freshly prepared, delicious, and served with love. Simple, homely flavors combined with local touches made each dish comforting and memorable. You can truly feel the care and effort that goes into every plate. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, perfectly complementing the peaceful surroundings. Everything is thoughtfully arranged to ensure a relaxed and pleasant stay. If you’re looking for spectacular views, serene surroundings, heartfelt hospitality, and great food, Bloominghills Homestay is an absolute gem. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a peaceful mountain retreat with a soulful experience. We would love to return again

Blooming Hills offers a quiet offbeat atmosphere at Kankey Bong, ideal for relaxing in nature. The rooms are clean and comfortable with attached bathrooms, 24/7 water supply, and geysers. A few rooms are duplex, which feel more spacious and premium. The mountain-view balconies, especially with Kanchenjunga in sight, made every morning magical and calming. If time allows, I would happily return for another peaceful break — the experience was totally worth it!
