Lhakyi Gurung and Depanita Gurung
Our newly renovated building is made especially for the comfort of our guests. It provides a beautiful view of Mt. Kanchenjunga and its quite bright and airy. We believe in minimalistic living hence our rooms are quite simple and minimal. We also have a kitchen in the premise for guests who would like to cook on their own (Please note: Use of Kitchen is to be informed before hand and we charge a humble fee for it).
Namaste 🙏 We are the Gurung family 😊 and we welcome you to come stay at our humble Homestay.
Our homestay is located in the centre of Darjeeling. An eventful-pleasing walk from here will take you to the best of Darjeeling.
