    We liked the place in its entirety. The offbeat location, nicely decorated rooms, pleasant ambience, sweet and humble nature of hosts and not to miss their lovable pet "Kaali"! Had a great experience staying here and savouring the beauty of this place along with tasty homely food prepared by hosts!

    Best hostel in india, I booked for two nights and ended up staying for the week!

    The nature of mountain towns leads to power shortages which can cut wifi and water around the place. However this is for all hotels and hostels in the mountains so its not the fault of the hostel owner. If you work from home, make sure you have data and you'll be completely fine, there around 3 or 4 bars of 4g data avaliable for airtel at the hostel.

    The location is insanely beautiful, with a view of Kanchenjunga every morning when the clouds part. In a cute mountain valley, much nicer than staying in the town. They serve breakfast for free and have a dinner you can request at night time. The staff is extremely kind and the beds are some of the most comfortable ive stayed in all of india. I booked for two nights and ended up staying for the week!

    The property is also home to a family of 4 and, therefore, very well maintained and clean. The food is home-cooked by aunty, and most ingredients come from the kitchen garden. Rooms and bathrooms are spacious and modern. And the view is simply amazing. Plenty of common areas to sit and enjoy the view. The property is right next to Mochilero Ostello.

    Situated a little away from the city in Singyang village, this place is a hidden gem. Neat and clean beds, breathtaking views of the Kanchenjunga and tasty organic food are the pros of this place. The place is owned and managed by the Gurung family, each of them very sweet and helpful. Highly recommend.

    The Gurungs have an excellent homestay set up here. The private room that I booked was cozy and comfy. Kitchen space and bathroom were shared with other guests but it barely felt so. There was a feeling of community among other guests and the owners are hospitable, generous and we'll informed. If you love animals and kids and need a room with a view, THIS is the place to stay in Pelling. You can also opt for meals which are priced at 150-200. Breakfast was complimentary. Bike/scooter rentals can also be acquired here. At night you have bonfire, song-dance. Highly recommended 💕

    I came with no expectations when I arrived, but the homestay exceeded them in every way. The remote location brought stunning views of the snow-capped Mt.Kanchenjunga right from my room. The warmth and hospitality of the homestay owners Naresh Daju, Aunty, Rubina, Nishal, and Ashmit made it truly special. Bonfires, music, and a variety of local drinks, including the delightful rhododendron wine and Tongba, added to the charm. The organic, delicious food crafted by Auntie, with a focus on homegrown ingredients, sealed the deal. While staying there, I felt like family; the homestay was a true home away from home. I even supported and cheered for Naresh daju and Ashmit for their football game, I immersed myself in the local spirit of Pelling and joined the audince. The local people made me feel like I was not an outsider. Amidst leisure, I connected with nature in a profound way, away from city life, surrounded by mountains, hearing birds, bees, and feeling the soothing wind. It was a surreal experience, offering solitude and seclusion from the crowd. Little Srishtika, the sweetest kid there, added an extra layer of joy to my stay. Her morning and evening visits, calling me 'Dada,' made me feel even more connected to this special place. This connection compels me to return, as it was a place of tuanquility that I hadn't experienced in a very long time. A perfect blend of nature, hospitality, local life, and unforgettable moments. I left with a heart full of gratitude and memories that will last a lifetime ❤️ I am definitely coming back here soon!

    I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Wake in Himalayas which was earlier called Mochilero Ostello. From the vibrant atmosphere to the stunning view of Mt. Kanchenjunga right from my dorm, every moment was delightful. The people, including Naren dada, aunty, Rubeena, Nishal, Ashmit, Anita, and the charming little girl Sristika, made me feel like a part of their family. The homemade meals were a highlight, prepared with fresh vegetables from their garden and accompanied by delicious chutneys. Originally booking for just one day, I extended my stay to 7 days, finding it hard to leave this welcoming environment. The experience was so memorable that I've decided to make it my second home. I even joined in the excitement of the West Sikkim football tournament, supporting Naren dada and Ashmit's teams. For exploration, bike rentals were conveniently available, adding to the overall enjoyment of my stay.

    Sometimes it's so cloudy that Kanchenjunga is not visible 😐

    I had the pleasure of staying at "Wake in Himalayas," formerly known as Mochirello Ostello, and it was an absolute delight. This homestay offers a unique and unforgettable experience in the lap of nature. First and foremost, the food here is a true highlight. Every meal is a culinary journey of locally sourced, organic ingredients straight from their own land. The flavors are authentic, and the quality is unmatched. It's a treat for anyone who appreciates home-cooked meals. The hospitality provided by Naresh Ji and his family is unparalleled. They make you feel like a part of their own family, and their warmth and friendliness are simply heartwarming. They go out of their way to ensure your stay is comfortable and memorable. The location of this homestay is a dream for nature lovers. With plenty of open spaces, you can relax and take in the breathtaking view of the Kanchenjunga mountain range. It's a haven for those seeking tranquility and natural beauty. The rooms are cozy and beautifully constructed in traditional Nepali style, with wooden accents that add to the overall charm. The homestay is also pet-friendly, making it an ideal choice for those traveling with their furry companions. In summary, "Wake in Himalayas" is a hidden gem in the Himalayas, offering not only a comfortable and scenic stay but also a truly authentic and heartwarming experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty and culture of this region.

    Everything about the place is quiet and peaceful. And then when you wake up in the morning, from your room when you look outside of the window, you realise the mighty Kanchanjunga is just right in front of you, looking at you. That felt amazing. And the food here is exceptional. Everything is organic and yumm. I also got to taste the local tungba drink which is soo good. People are amazing... This place is a must to visit and stay... Just stay :)
