    A Neat Hotel and worth your money

    The Hotel was surprisingly tidy, neat and clean. The room was small but had all the basic amenities. The bed was huge comfortable and cosy. I loved how spic and span the room was. Everything from the bedsheets, blankets to linen looked fresh and clean. Room service was prompt and Dorjee Da made all the arrangements for us for the tour. He was really helpful and courteous. Maybe a balcony or a view would have been awesome but we knew what we signed up for so no complaints. All in all it was a really good deal and value for money.

    The location from MG marg might be an issue for some people as walking for 1 kms to MG marg may be tiresome because the roads needs steep climbs at some points. But we enjoyed the walks as it’ll make you do some good physical activity

    The property was exceptional. The rooms, bathrooms and the ambience and the surroundings were very good. The popular MG marg is just 15 mins away if you’re on foot (approx. 1-1.5 kms). Mr. Karma is a very humble and hospitable person. You’ll definitely feel at home when you’re at the place.

    .... nothing!

    Amazing Hotel!!!!! Hotel Shambhala was the nicest Hotel we have stayed in throughout the entirety of our trip round India! It was very affordable and the rooms and beds were so spacious and comfortable. Our hosts were extremely welcoming and helpful. They gave us very good recommendations for what to see around Gangtok and provided us with tea, filtered water and towels. I'll definitely be coming back to this Hotel when I return to Gangtok in the future!

    Hotel Shambhala was beyond my expectation. Hotel owner Mr. Karna and his wife are very friendly. They arranged vehicle for our entire Sikkim trip at very reasonable rate. Very much satisfied. I would recommend to everyone. very close to M G Road and Vajra taxi stand.

    Make sure the staff explicit the kitchen rules before letting the clients use the premises - we had a small misunderstanding that was however easily resolved when we talked to the manager of the hotel

    Nice clean rooms Good value for money Nice staff Recommended for a nice and calm stay in Gangtok Distance to the center easily walkable Nice coffee shops nearby the hotel We appreciated being on the more quiet side of town! 😊

    Nothing to share as negative.

    The host are very good and supportive. The hospitality of the hotel is great 👏. They helped me to find the rental cab for Nathula and other sight seeing at great price. Great food and meal for my 2 year child with so much care was great support for me in my trip to Gangtok. I would like to recommend it to other as well.

    What I like most is Mr. Thinlay's (the owner) behaviour. He was super cooperative, helpful & friendly. He is capable and infact willing to fill up your most of your requirements including tour packages. The room facilities was nice including Geyser, toiletries & bed. This hotel is a must recommend for safe & secure shelter.
