Located in Kalimpong, 30 miles from Tiger Hill, Hills Tale Backpackers Hostel has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Had an amazing stay at Hills tale hostel.The location is calm, just walkable from bus stand and market and the owners and staffs were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. One of the highlights was the dorm room—it was spacious, well-lit, and the beds were super comfortable, offering a great night's sleep. The room was also kept very clean, and there were lockers for securing valuables. It was a perfect environment for relaxing after a day of exploring. I would definitely recommend Hills tale for anyone looking for a fun, social experience on a budget. I’d happily stay here again.

Hideout Backpackers Hostel is located in Darjeeling, within 5.3 miles of Tibetan Buddhist Monastery and 7.3 miles of Tiger Hill Sunrise Observatory.

Everything was good, the location is also very great, bed was very very comfortable but Only one thing can improve it more by just installing a room heater because the room was very very cold at night along with the beda

Located in Darjeeling and with Tiger Hill reachable within 7.2 miles, Solo Stays - Backpacker hostel provides a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace.

The view from this place is a key attraction. From the terrace itself, the full view of the Kanchenjunga range is visible. Only caveat, the stay/hostel is 10Kilometres away from Mall Road. The way to commute is by taking a shared taxi. During winters, the shared taxi towards the stay is not available after 5pm.

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    The location is excellent, the behaviour of the staffs were very good. Hassle free payment, pocket friendly budget. Run by all women staff. They give their level best to serve the guests.

    Great location, beautiful surrounding atmosphere, great staff. Everything about the hotel was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with excellent service in where we had dinner. Food was good and great value for money and service was attentive and efficient. Room itself was well equipped and comfortable. I was very pleased with my stay.

    Owner is very humble and helpful. He will take care of all your logistics even car and tour guide if you want so that you can enjoy your holidays without any headache. Very budget friendly with good facilities at a scenic place in Kalimpong, little bit away from the hustle and bustle of the city market so that you can enjoy mountain views all around. It is very near to Delo Park and you can enjoy the best morning walk with Kanchenjunga view (if no clouds) of your life.

    The hotel is well maintained with a wonderful property and great location. It’s full of friendly and helpful staff who made our stay worthwhile. In a small city of Kalimpong with a shortage of Jain and Vegetarian food the hotel provided us with a wonderful Jain food with great hospitality.

    This owner is a fraudster he told me not to book from booking.com and directly book from him and he charged me 1350 later at the payment said 1500 He is a cheap scammer who scam by charging high price after the stay. Unethical practices running scamming homestay. Being a loyal customer of booking.com I request not to allow such fraudsters who scam loyal customer and do fraudulent activities.
