2 years agoThe first sight of the cottage is very good enough to remember this homely and beautiful homestay very near to Rolep Hanging Bridge. Ms Sujata and her brother were so hospitable and went an extra mile to meet our needs. The rooms were clean and maintained very well. The food was delicious and we got to taste the authentic cuisine. Overall the stay was a memorable for us and had a great time.

a year agoThere are also tent facilities along with room. It is very close to the hanging bridge , you can hear The sound of the mountain river sound every time which is like most, but it is recommended to not go Rolep , reason being Road 10-3 is closed for road construction to Rolep and the road is very bad, hopefully in 1-2 months the road will be fixed and we will have a nice road like other roads in Sikkim to go to Rolep, I went once at the end of November.

4 years agoBeautiful stay, nice food and excellent service. The owner Oma Hang had arranged the entire silk route tour for me and my aged parents and the tour was really hassle free, all homestays were good and beautiful food and service. Awesome behaviour of all people, and the driver he provided us was too good, charming and friendly. I am very happy with this tour plan and the final stay at his Rolep was mesmerizing.

3 years agoYaku Khim Homestay was the best part of our trip to Sikkim. We were floored by the hospitality of Oma and Sujata who always had a smile on their face while taking care of us! The Homestay is located at a beautiful location where you can hear the sound of the river flowing all day. The place is clean, well maintained with all basic amenities. The food tasted so good as it was prepared with utmost care and affection. Had an extremely delightful stay and made new friends too. Missing you guys already :) P.S-Don't miss spotting Pigu lazying around in the lawn all day.
