Hotel Bamboo Retreat (Gangtok, India)

About Bamboo Retreat

Bamboo Retreat is a very special boutique hotel under Swiss-Indian management. It is located across the valley from Gangtok which is 30 to 35 minutes' drive from Gangtok Town and 8 minutes below world famous Rumtek Monastery. Set surrounded by paddy fields and bamboo groves across the valley from Sikkim’s capital Gangtok this boutique hotel overlooks Sikkim’s green rolling hills and the snow-capped Nathula beyond it lies Tibet. We reflect a blend of Sikkim’s culture with a modern / cosmopolitan flare. The Bamboo Retreat integrates Sikkimese art, botany, interiors, hospitality and cuisine – yet the charming Swiss influence of its founder also shines through for example in paying attention to details. The retreat is best suited for those seeking a place away from the hustle of the city, who enjoy a mix of ethic and global good-quality homemade cuisine, who are interested in meditation, Sikkim’s history, undertaking day-walks and generally as a starting point to explore other parts of Sikkim and the Northeast.Special attraction: Proximity to Gangtok; nearby Rumtek and Ranka monasteries; surrounded by Sikkim’s paddy-fields and countryside environment.
