Addy’s Inn is a fantastic place to stay! Addy was a great help, offering expert assistance and guidance throughout my stay. The breakfasts and all the meals that I had were delicious. The place is super clean and the vibe is relaxed and hospitable. The location is about a 2 km walk from MG Marg (the “busy” hub) in a quiet neighborhood. The view from the balcony, of the Gangtok area and mountain is great. I would most definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

Zameer is probably the most cordial host I've ever met in all the hostels I ever lived around some parts of the world. We became very comfortable immediately after the check in. He creates a vibe that will make you forget that you are staying in a hostel. Being an avid fan of 80's and 90's music and books, I loved how nostalgic the interior decorations were for me. The breakfast was also awesome and the common room has enough resources for a lazy hang around. I would recommend it every single time.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
