    We had a peaceful stay at Welcome Homestay during off seasons. Host: The family running the homestay is very warm and welcoming. They provided hot water for drinking and tea without even asking. Rooms: Very large and clean. Toilets were very clean and had geyser for hot water whenever needed. Location: It is close to the market. However, it is not reachable by car and need to walk about 500 m in mud road from the main road, which can be an issue for some people who are just used to paved roads. Views: Yuksom being a valley, you can't expect much views. Homestay is more like a the midst of farms and forest. They have beautiful garden and lawn. However, once in the room, you feel disconnected from rest of environment. If the rooms were such that it let you connect with the outside (rooms arranged in circles instead of row with place to sit out), it would be a wonderful place and 5 start worthy.

    Had an amazing stay at Welcome Homestay in Yoksum, West Sikkim! The food was super tasty and felt just like home. The room was clean and comfy, but the best part was the owner and his lovely family — they took care of everything and even took us sightseeing and on a short trek. It’s a bit remote, but that peaceful isolation is exactly what we needed. If you’re looking for quiet, nature, and warm hospitality, this place is perfect. Highly recommend! Truly a GEM 💎

    My two-day stay at this homestay was nothing short of magical. Nestled in nature's embrace, every corner whispered serenity and warmth. The hosts welcomed us like family, their hospitality weaving comfort into every moment. Mornings began with golden sunlight and birdsong, evenings with starry skies and heartfelt conversations. The charm of the place lingers in my soul — a perfect blend of beauty, peace, and unforgettable memories. Loved each and every moment of it❤️
