When we entered in the homestay we were welcomed in a very nice way then the rooms were just outstanding , Cozy and comfortable at the same time and talking about the view from the window OMG just mesmerising. The food was also very tasty from breakfast to snacks-tea and dinner everything was so perfect and the service was also top notch and very fast. The morning view of kanchenjunga from the homestay just stole my heart . In a word I just loved the Himalayan Hideaway Homestay in Rishop.

Everything was good here except for the washroom commode. It was dirty and was not cleaned properly. Other than that, food wise and location wise it's one of the best homestay in rishop. The hospitality of the manager and everyone else is really very good.

We stayed there in the last week of May with my mom and masi. The place is amazing, starting from check-in to checkout the entire experience was incredible. The view from the room was excellent. The room had a very aesthetic rustic vibe, warm and cozy, needless to say, tidy and clean. Food was also great, served hot and fresh and had a touch of home. but the most important thing would be the host Kabysharee. Her behaviour and attention to our requirements whatever we asked was so nice! It didn’t feel like some hotel, it’s truly a home away from home! The entire team was great. Even if someone doesn’t want to step out, they can relax in the HOMESTAY and that’d be a great experience. They suggested to take a walk from resort to the village which would take around 25mins to get down and the view was serene and the whole ambience was peaceful. I’m planning my next trip soon.

My experience has been awesome. Excellent food. I'm shocked by the quality of food and service given at this offbeat place. I had already accepted the fact that offbeat places meant to sacrifice on taste and food options but these people completely changed my views. Munna didi (the cook) always had a smile of her face, cooked the tastiest homely food we could ask for. Cleanliness was brilliant and even the slightest request of making aloo parathas for my toddlers without even charging for them meant a really good gesture, as everything isnt compared with money some gestures are for the heart from the heart. Awesome work and team ..Kudos to u all..
