  Old-World Charm and Warm Hospitality in Gangtok

  A beautiful heritage hotel that lives up to its description, with charming royal colonial-style architecture and a lovely atmosphere. The food is excellent, the rooms are perfectly comfortable, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. A wonderful place to experience a touch of old-world charm in Gangtok.

  Great location, sub par facilities at high prices, mixed impressions from staff, overall not worth the high prices.

  Elgin Nor-Khill has a great location, within walking distance of MG Marg and Lall Bazaar. The hotel has an old world, vintage feel.

  The property is definitely dated. Wall paint is chipping off in a few places, water leaking on the bathroom floors, floor tiling chipped in places. The facilitiea are the kind that would considered luxurious in the 1970s, and aren’t exactly practical today. They have some magazines in strategic places; random magazine issues from several years ago. An upscale property like this should be able to place recent publications as opposed to an India Today weekly issue from 2022. I had mixed experience with the staff. The front desk folks were very professional and helpful. So were the housekeepers. However, the porters and room service staff were constantly looking for tips for every single thing. Order some milk to the room? The delivery person hangs around asking multiple times if you got what you wanted, and “conveniently” reminds you that he is off tomorrow, “so if there was nothing else…”. The porters who helped with the luggage were even worse. I absolutely do not mind tipping hotel staff and routinely do so. However, it is off putting when every single porter / room service person drops obvious hints and acts super worried that you might forget to tip them.

  Ein Stück Geschichte

  Ein Hotel für Geschichtsliebhaber, ruhig gelegen, mit einem schönen Garten. Hervorragender Service, sehr gutes Essen, schönes Frühstücksbuffet. Das Haus ist ein Stück Geschichte, so ist es auch durchweg eingerichtet, das muss man mögen. Wir haben zwei Nächte hier verbracht und waren sehr zufrieden.

  Es gab nichts zu beanstanden.
