As someone who solo travels a lot, having a great hostel experience is non negotiable for me, and I'm glad that my stay at Tashila was exactly what I had expected and more.
Tucked slightly away from the hustle bustle of the city, Tashila offers a great balance between solitude, great views and a whole lot of fun.
The rooms are cleans, the halls are spacious and the people are amazing.
Mr. Tashi the owner of the hostel is an amazing guy, super chill and makes every guest feel right at home.
Huge shoutout to Srijana, the host. I've never seen a more fun loving, cheerful host, ever in all these years of travelling. She'll make sure you never have a "boring" day at the hostel.
Location wise, it's at a good hike-able distance from a lot of popular tourist attractions, so that's another plus point.
I could go on and on about how much I loved being here but it's something you have to experience for yourself. You'll come here as stranger and will leave with a heart full of memories and people you can't help but miss.
If you're in Gangtok and are looking for a home away from home this is the place to be, period. 10/10 recommended.
