We stayed there for around 9 days extending my stay from 4days.. an amazing hotel, superb food, very good location from all aspects. Mr. Raj and the other staff members were very polite and helpful. Service quality is fantastic. Morning breakfast might be a bit disappointing as they have a fixed menu and options are limited. Rooms are cozy though... More

Was touched by the concern shown to me by the Front Desk manager when he reliazed that I had a bad back and unable to climb three flights of steps... others would have shrugged it off and without asking he changed my room to a lower floor. The service staff were equally caring and that made the difference. I noticed... More

We had initially planned to stay at the "more-hyped" Tashi Delek across the road, but after a 1-night disappointment decided to move in this hotel and we are glad we did. The ambience and service are just great ! And, the restaurant food is pretty good as well (many locals eat at the restaurant, which is a certificate of their... More

I stayed at the Oriental for 3 days in November 2011. It has one of the best locations in Gangtok, right within the MG road. Fantastic hotel, service was a little lacklustre, however location is a winner More

Do NOT spoil your The Beautiful Sikkim Trip by booking here... although it would be recommended by Travel Agent... 1. Hotel is of five floors. No Lift. In case, you get a room on the 3rd/ 4th/ 5th... i.e. the end of your journey... 2. No fan/ A/C in the rooms. If you are there during your summer vacation... that's... More

Exceptional location. Nice and Cozy Rooms. Only issue is with the choice of complimentary breakfast. Choices are very less. Very neat and clean with very good support staff.The toilets are a bit too small but very neat and clean and hygenic too. More

We selected Oriental based recommendations from other travellers on many travel sites and never after that have we regretted our decision :) Location: The Oriental is located right in the middle of MG Marg, the heart of Gangtok and let me tell you, there are very few hotels in Gangtok who can beat Oriental in terms of location! Rooms &... More

The Oriental is situated right on the pedestrianised centre of Gangtok, easy for strolling around the shops, and eating at other restaurants. The staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfasts excellent, and I think it's good value for a mid price hotel. However, the plumbing failed for half a day while we were there, and when we left the next... More

We had selected "The Oriental" calculating it's location will be a great plus. And that it was being right on M.G.Road and stones throw away from shopping and food options. The hotel manager (Raj) was a very helpful guy and I had connected with him since booking the hotel. He had arranged a pick-up from Bagdogra for me also at... More

Oriental Gangtok has been a WOW experience for us. Reminds us of the clean oriental spirit with wooden flooring and wooden steps taking you to the well furnished rooms. Gives that very warm feeling. The staff at oriental right from the reception to the room service are always with a smile and guide the travellers in a very helpful way.... More
