Plus:
1. The location of the homestay is just absolutely top notch if you want a secluded place away from noisy tourist infested areas. From the homestay itself you can watch Kanchenjunga in her full glory. The lush forests around the homestay will refresh your inner sanctum. It's also a paradise for bird watchers during season.
2. The amenities of the rooms are up to mark. Running water, geyser etc is available.
3. The food prepared by the homestay owners have a local touch and tastes quite exquisite. You cannot expect lavish menu like resorts but it is just sufficient. You can also taste (or buy) their home made Rhododendron and grape wines, Ghee made from Yak milk and many more local delicacies.
4. The behavior of homestay owners is really nice. Paresh Dada is very humble.
5. A walk in through the organic farms and cardamom plantations of the homestay will be a pleasant experience.
Minus:
1. Not much but the last 4-5 km of road leading to homestay is currently under repair. It's a bit tedious for small cars to make the journey. But once repaired it will be smooth.
2. An electric kettle and provision of room heater (during winter) will just be a perfect addition to this beautiful homestay.
Amazing hosts. He deserves an applause for tending to everyone's needs so well and still making it seem so effortless. I visited with my family for a day only. But the interaction we had made me feel so rested I felt I was there for an entire week. He is that refreshing to interact with. He also makes sure nobody is left out at the bonfire, which I think is a true quality to reckon with. The rooms are also nice and cozy. We had everything we needed. Could do with some more sockets though. But it's manageable. Washrooms are clean. Geysers are provided and you can turn it on whenever you take the shower so that was very convenient. Extra blankets were provided when we asked for them. So 100/100 om hospitality. Overall, the place is aesthetically pleasing and refreshes your mind and body ( because most of the food cooked here is from the garden itself, even the fish!) And I miss Simba, Pluto, Bhalu and the white one🥺❤️
Wonderful experience. If you love nature and serenity, Chayatal is your place. You can get the best view of Kanchenjunga too. Homestay staff are also polite and quite friendly.
I will remember the stay in Chayatal Heritage for excellent location, it's ambience, its neatness and food and will recommend Chayatal Heritage to everyone I know...food is excellent, behavior of the host is very friendly and helpful and location is wonderful...my stay was very peaceful and fulfilling.
Must stay for everyone for everyone who loves nature, tranquility and adventure.
