MANDARIN VILLAGE RESORT — Hotel in Sikkim

I was searching for someplace which I didn't visit before, is in the lap of nature and crores away from the city hustle and bustle. My search landed me in Kaluk, West Sikkim.||We selected Mandarin Village Resort for the entire trip of 4 days. The reason for its selection was its location and surroundings. The resort is nestled in the mountain side and extends over acres where one can stroll about, sit and relax.||Mr. Bharat, the manager of the Resort is a very polite and helpful gentleman. He helped us in the search for a chauffeur for the trip at a very reasonable rate. On the day of our arrival Mr. Bharat was courteous enough to ask if we would have lunch. Whenever we faced any issue he would promptly respond and take a look or send someone to check the issue. All the staff were really courteous.||The restaurant is a great place for having your food with an awesome view of the surrounding valleys and mountains. Sanghak Choeling Monastery at Pelling is visible from Kaluk and on a clear day when Kanchenjunga range is visible, together they present a picturesque landscape.||We stayed for 3 days in the family suite. The cottage is good enough for two families. It has got a balcony which gives a great view of the Kanchenjunga mountains. There were few issues with the family suite which I would suggest the Mandarin Resort team to look into - certains bulbs were not working, amount of light was less in the secondary bedroom, few charging points were not working.||The last day we stayed in Premium Deluxe rooms which are on  a little lower level than the restaurant. Although the last day was cloudy, it was understandable that instead of these rooms the Deluxe rooms and the family suite would present much better views of the mountains as they are at an upper level. It seems that the Premium Deluxe rooms have been newly developed and thus have everything working properly. The middle of the rooms should have one more light.||The breakfast each day was different, tasty and fulfilling. We had khichdi one day at lunch, which was good. The dinner food taste varied. We liked the plain dal, dal tadka, aloo jeera and mixed veg. But the non veg items were not really cooked in a proper manner and didn't  suit our taste buds.||Two more suggestions - ||Cleaning and servicing of the rooms should be done at least every alternate day even without being informed which will ensure the resort being at par with other renowned ones.||Introduce another chef who can cook non-veg items suiting everyone's taste buds especially Bengalis since they form the major percentage of tourists.||The day of our departure the staff and Mr. Bharat made sure that our breakfast was packed at 6:30 AM in the morning before we left. ||All in all it was a really pleasant stay and I will recommend this resort to everyone as one will love it. ||Worthy mention: Our chauffeur Mr. Robin (+91 80161 33151) was really a skilled driver whose referral we got via Mr. Sudeep Subba (+91...

A Relaxing Stay at Mandarin Resort

My recent stay at Mandarin exceeded my expectations in many ways. From the moment I walked into the lobby, I knew I was in for a memorable experience.

The room I stayed in was impeccably clean and tastefully decorated. The bed was comfortable, and the amenities provided were top-notch. I especially appreciated the attention to detail, such as the complimentary toiletries and plush bathrobes.

Situated in a remote village at Kaluk, West Sikkim, Mandarin Village Resort is full of serenity.

The staff truly went above and beyond to ensure my stay was enjoyable. From the warm welcome at the check-in to the prompt assistance with any inquiries, their professionalism and friendliness were commendable.

I took advantage of the hotel's facilities, including the well-equipped gym and refreshing pool. Both were clean and well-maintained, providing the perfect opportunity to relax and unwind after a day of sightseeing.

Though Mandarin Village Resort may be on the higher end of the price range, the exceptional service and amenities justify the cost. I felt that I received great value for the price paid.

One standout feature of Resort was the stunning rooftop bar, offering panoramic views of the village skyline. It was the perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail while watching the sunset.

Although my overall experience was excellent, I did encounter some issues with the Wi-Fi connectivity in certain areas of the Resort. This is an area where need to be improved to ensure a seamless experience for all guests. There is no big market or emergency medical services nearby, so get yourself prepared for the same. There is a small market approximately 500m from Resort, but it is hard to access without any Vehicle due to steep road.

In conclusion, my stay at Resort was nothing short of delightful. From the luxurious accommodations to the attentive service, every aspect exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Mandarin Village Resort to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Kaluk...
