Which part of Pelling should you stay in?

Good to know

How to book the right room in Pelling

  • Ask for a “Kanchenjunga-facing” or “mountain-view” room by name — in many hotels only some categories face the peaks.
  • Peaks are clearest from October to March, usually between sunrise and about 9 am.
  • Check whether room heaters are included; nights are cold from November to February.
  • Breakfast-and-dinner (MAP) plans are popular because most kitchens close early in Pelling.
  • Carry cash — ATMs are few and can run dry in peak season.

Note: Listings are compiled from public information for trip planning. Photos on property pages are representative until verified property photos are added. Always confirm rates, room type and inclusions with the property before paying.
