Bamboo Retreat

“Bamboo Retreat Hotel”

Beautiful location set in a garden with far reaching views to Kanchenjunga. Charming, friendly, helpful staff. Roaring log fire to sit round in the evening and delicious homemade jams for breakfast. Very magical place to stay.

Loved the peaceful and eclectic atmosphere of bamboo, decorated with artefacts from the Himalayas - it was like being in a small museum! The staff were incredibly helpful in organising the logistics of getting to Gangtok, and were always ready to answer any questions we had. The food was delicious, though the portion size was quite small. We ordered a few things off the menu which were nice but a little pricey - however we understand the remoteness and quietness of Sikkim would understandably reflect in the cost of items. Also a few of the advertised activities weren’t running - I.e the hot stone bath, though again this could have been because of the quiet time of year, and although we would have liked to try it, this didn’t impact our stay. Overall a lovely stay, and a really nice retreat from the hustle and bustle of Gangtok. A big thank you to our hosts, and cook for their hospitality!

“Heavenly place”

This place is magic. Nestled in a beautiful garden with a lot of piece and nice landecape. The staff was very helpful and caring, making my stay memorabile. Rooms have a lot of charme and are decorated with local furniture and textiles. Highly recommended!! Thanks to Sunita for all her attentions.

I spent five nights at the Bamboo Retreat where I appreciated being in nature, yet close to the city center. Babita the Operations Manager was very helpful to organize different activities for example a day trip to lake Changu, which as a solo travel wasn’t easy as it takes at least two international foreigners to visit some of the tourist destinations. I did the introduction to meditation with Kalden which was an enriching experience as he has a lot of knowledge that he passes on in a playful way. As it was my birthday during my stay Babita and the team surprised me with a cake which was a very kind gesture. Some of the activities that are mentioned on the website such as yoga and massages weren’t at offer when I was there. As I only inquired once I was there, I would recommend for people who are interested to inquire in advance.
