Situated in Gangtok, 1.6 km from Palzor Stadium, Tashila Hostel features accommodation with free bikes, private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. Featuring a bar, the property is located within 4.3 km of Namgyal Institute of Tibetology. The accommodation provides karaoke and a shared kitchen.

The place is super spacious, I felt like I was staying in a villa. There’s a balcony with seating, a big couch with a TV in the living room, an upstairs balcony with lounge chair and an upstairs common room. If I had more time I would have hung out here for a while. They even have a working space (and good wifi) which makes it the ideal spot to chill out. The owner and his staff are super friendly and made me feel right at home. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left, they helped me with anything and everything I’d need and answered every question. Whenever I’d go out they’d help arrange transportation and make sure I get a fair price. The beds are super comfy and the rooms have a very homely feel to it. The whole place is spic and span, very tidy and clean, and the included breakfast is simple but delicious. They make a killer toast! Opt to take dinner with them in the evening, they’re really good cooks! Definitely recommend staying here!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Sam is the best host you will ever meet. He will give you the tasty breakfast, many many stories, energetic vibe, and will help you in all possible ways he can. This place is a must try one just for the hospitality, enthusiastic host and tasty breakfast with the stunning view 🖤 Thank you so much Sam :)
