We just stayed in this hotel for one night on our way back from Yumthang. The place was superb! Full of flowers and spotlessly clean.(Even the shower curtains were clean, which is a rarity even in better grade hotels in India!) The food was ordered by us before and was freshly cooked and served in the neat and clean dining... More

Kesang took us in quickly and last minute with no problems and we stayed an entire week. Rooms are all seperated with their own balconies surrounded by thousands of flowers and lush green brush....

A friendly mail from the owner, Kesang, confirming our booking without any prior payment was a surprising element. We traveled to Gangtok in late May and reached in the evening. It was quite late in the night and the city was in a sleepy mood. Finding the place was a little problem as Hidden Forest Retreat is really hidden from... More

I selected this place to stay after reading all the reviews on trip advisor but we were majorly disappointed after my stay here. First three days we stayed at Demazong (Club Mahindra) which was indeed a good experience.
