Recent Reviews in Aritar

Days Inn By Wyndham Gangtok Tadong

Days Inn By Wyndham Gangtok Tadong

8/10 Good
"The property is located right on the main street with easy access to public transport, mainly taxis. The valley looking room had excellent views. The restaurant and their staff offered excellent service, and the food was good and reasonably priced. It had an excellent view as well. It was off-season; therefore, we would be the only couple sitting in the restaurant mostly. We had an early morning start on check out, and they gave us packed breakfast. The gym is small and not much in terms of amenities. Overall, it was a good hotel for its bracket and price, and we had a pleasant and comfortable stay."
