We got to book this establishment with help of Dashdiganta Travels. It's a beautiful property. The rooms are so beautiful with great balconies and if you are lucky.. you will get the most beautiful view of Kalimpong city feom your Balcony. We stayed on Room 29. The place is so well maintained, the food served is hot and fresh.Cost wise it's really budget friendly.. Honestly if you want a quiet place with great view, good food and feel the nature, then just close ur eyes and choose this place.. Best memory always will be having a cup of hot tea from the balcony. Thanks to the owner and the staff for their hospitality and taking care of us.

Beautiful stay and rooms. But the place is bit far from the main town and the roads are at horrible condition.

The staff were helpful, the cooking was good. We got rooms with a view, extra bed (though the weather was not on our side). Prices were reasonable. There's a swing and a few pwt dogs. Nice for children. But the approach road was difficult to drive: steep, potholed and narrow. You get stuck in traffic 2-3 times while coming from the main road. Rooms with view are high above, you need to climb around 5 stories. Not good for old people.

The guest house is nestled amidst the picturesque view of beautiful cottages at the top of the hills. We were a big family( group of 10) and had a comfortable stay here. Even though predominantly senior citizens were there we had no problems. It was overall a memorable trip. The owner, Mr Thiraj, was very accommodating and supportive from the onstart. The manager, Mr Bhoshen, was proactive and helpful in every way. Rooms were well maintained and spacious, each having it's own balcony and the food was also very home like. We highly recommend this place to all.

The host was extremely sweet and helpful. He went out of his way to accompany us to the market because we were not too sure of the roads. The food was great..they have 3 very loving dogs in the property, which just adds to the charm of the place. Rooms are extremely clean, hot water is available and the view from the view is magical All in all, a must stay. Would definitely come again 🤗
