Nestled within the heart of Gangtok, right in the middle of the popular MG road market, The Oriental, along with its ever smiling manager, provides service and great value for money. Being in the heart of the bustling main road is an advantage for this charming boutique hotel, which manages to provide serenity along with great views of the Kanchenjunga. A tip here: Visitors staying in Gangtok are well advised to book a hotel on the main market road itself, as a hotel even a short distance away will require one to climb hills. As for rooms, each rooms is neat and comfortable, but staying on the top floor is highly recommended, especially in the penthouse suite - which is spacious enough with a comfortable and elegant sofas to lounge around and enjoy the view, along with a separate dressing area, and open terraces with which to better enjoy the beauty of Sikkim. Do note however, that the hotel has five floors, with no lift. So for those who do not relish the exercise or have ailments, it is advisable to take a room on the first or second floor, as one can still enjoy views of the Kanchenjunga from here. There are also no fans or air-conditioners in any of the rooms (barring the penthouse suite) so do bear this mind, especially when booking during the summer. To compensate however, there are large windows in each room, to let in the beautiful mountain air of Sikkim. The boutique hotel offers a complimentary buffet breakfast.
