From the seamless check-in to the helpful recommendations, the service was truly outstanding. If you're looking for a luxurious and convenient getaway, look no further than Kengbari. It's the ideal place for a staycation, offering all the perks of a faraway vacation right in your own backyard. We can't wait to come back! NA

• Rohan (6/5): Pleasant -
• Hemraj (7/5): Peaceful location and friendly owner - The location of the hotel on the hill with all greeneries surroundings. It was peaceful location. Friendly staff. Enjoyed Indian Nepali thali, chapati and Italian pizza with organic mushroom recipe. Room was big and spacious with scenic view balcony on special request. I couldn't use credit cards such as VISA, AMEX etc. for payment and had to arrange cash. But they are integrated with Indian online payment system. Had to struggle bathing with cold water on 2nd day of my stay but on 1st. day was okay with warm water for shower.
• Sagar (7/5): Good - liked everything about the room....super classy food service is too slow ... i ordered set meal which comes with second serving facility but when i asked dal and vegetable to be repeated,she said yes i will check but she never gave any answer nor did she sent me the food .

The staff went above and beyond to meet our expectations. 100% recommended to everyone. Loved the way the property has been designed and maintained. The food was superb. We also got excellent recommendations for the day trips at Gangtok. Overall, it was a superb experience staying at Kengbari and I wish we could stay longer!!
• Sudipta (10/5): Exceptional - I liked everything about this place.. firstly the property is very well located away from the hustle bustle of the city,yet not far from Gangtok city.perfect choice for a relaxed holiday. I loved the way it's designed..great landscaping with stunning natural surroundings.Rooms are spacious and aesthetically decorated.evry corner is well utilised with a perfect sitting arrangement,be it a work space or a coffee corner or even the balcony!!! The restaurant is lively with good music, books and of course a place for wood fired pizza.Food was comforting with perfect blend of spice and taste.. The staff were great.. special thanks to Chetan for being an amazing host and paying attention to our small small needs. The stay was very comfortable and rejuvenating.. indeed it justifies it's name.highly recommendable None
• Tshering (9/5): Superb -
• Lama (8/5): Relaxing - the rooms , pool especially the apartment was a dream The service could have been a lot better same goes for the food.
• Anusha (10/5): A realm of tranquility - An extraordinary experience, it felt like stepping into a realm of tranquility. The location offers breathtaking views and delicious homemade-style food. While the vegetarian options are limited , their Veg Nepali thali is a must-try. The rooms are impeccably maintained, each exuding a charming aesthetic reminiscent of a Japanese countryside home. The entire place is a labor of love by Mr. and Mrs. Chetan. Make sure to leisurely explore the property and discover its unique blossoms and plants. They have an adorable dog named Sweetie; don't miss the chance to pet her while you enjoy a cappuccino prepared by the cafe's skilled barista(Captain as they call him). Every staff member, including the twin boys and both sweet girls at the cafe, excels in their roles. For those seeking the serenity of Sikkim, embracing slow travel, or looking to work from Gangtok(Wifi speed is awesome and did work from there for the whole week) , this place is exceptional. We shall Visit again next year :-)
• Abhay (9/5): Superb -
• Gurprinder (10/5): Best in price and close to nature - The property was very good in context of cleaning and everything was taken care to keep the natural environment outside and inside the rooms. The pool was very good and we enjoyed with our family Nothing to say
