The Elgin Nor-Khill - A Heritage Hotel & Spa

If you are searching for a heritage-style or luxury 5-star stay in Gangtok, this property will likely appear among the top recommendations. Its location is excellent close to the city center and within walking distance of MG Marg. The walk to MG Marg involves an uphill climb, while the return journey is much easier as it is mostly downhill.The lobby has a charming heritage character and creates a warm first impression. The gardens are beautifully maintained and provide a pleasant setting for outdoor dining. The restaurant, where breakfast and other meals are served, is well laid out, with a few tables overlooking the garden.The rooms, however, show their age. Some of the furnishings, including lamps and decorative elements, could benefit from refurbishment or replacement. Families may find the Premium Suite to be the best accommodation option, as it is newer and more spacious, although it requires climbing additional stairs. The hotel does not have elevators, and rooms are not equipped with air conditioning, which is generally not an issue given Gangtok’s pleasant climate. However, during the warmer months of May and June, some guests may miss having AC.The family suites vary in layout and quality, and I found some of them less impressive than expected. The property would benefit from a comprehensive refresh, particularly the carpets and certain decorative features, which appear dated. The pricing is on the higher side, making expectations naturally higher as well.Overall, I had a good stay and enjoyed the heritage ambiance, location, and gardens. While the experience was positive, I would rate it slightly below a 4-star experience rather than a solid 4, mainly because the rooms and interiors are due for modernization.

We are very happy with the service of the hotel very cooperative and friendly especially Basudev sir who helped in our comfortable stay .The views from the hotel are breathtaking .Overall every penny is worth it .Do include this in your itinerary.
