Hotel Mount Simvo

Standard vegeterian hotel in Tadong. Sikkim. Room is spacious. Well furnished. But food is with limited choice. Breakfast nothing much. Credit cards accepted. Service needs improvement.

Booking in with 15 people is usually tricky, but faced with no running water, a shortage of bed sheets and a view of a brick wall one foot away, I wanted to move. Added to that, there was a ball of hair on the floor of one of the bed rooms and we had to ask for toilet paper, even though there was a place for it and they let us in to our rooms as they were ready.
We asked for a different room. This one had a sheet too small for the bed with red stains in the middle of it and the walls have grubby hand prints as well as what looks like snot above the bed.
The staff dealt with each complaint, the water was on within the hour, they found sheets and cleaned the floor.
The rooms still smell like a men's room disinfectant and the 'refurbishing' claimed on the website is limited to the lavish foyer where the owner sits.
Do not eat here. The over worked waiter had difficulty remembering orders and the food took up to an hour and a half to arrive. Most of it was cold.
This hotel cares only about a quick buck and not about the guests.
Having said all that, if you need somewhere cheap to sleep in Gangtok and you are willing to push for cleanliness, this could work. We had to stay three nights (only ate there once) … And survived.
