A look around
What's here
The homestay offers a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing getaway. You'll be surrounded by oak trees, rolling tea gardens, and a calm, silent ambience. The rooms provide stunning views, especially during sunrise and sunset.
Here's what guests have said:
"Absolutely loved my stay here! The views are breathtaking - witnessing the sunrise and sunset from my room was pure magic."
"I've been to Tinchuley twice. Stayed there only. It's obvious that if you don't like some place you don't go there again for stay. And the place is so cozy & beautiful.. I would like to mention the food separately because it's too good, I mean awesome 😊"
"If you’re looking for a peaceful escape into nature, this place is truly special... One of the most magical moments is standing in the hotel corridor early in the morning, between 5:30 AM and 7:30 AM, when you can catch a spectacular 360-degree view of Kanchenjunga—if the skies are clear, it’s absolutely unforgettable."
The homely food, as Akash Majumder noted, is "too good, I mean awesome."
