These mostly are called a home stays as the concept is basically guests share rooms within a same building with local families and experience the local cultures and cuisines. But today with huge amount of tourist footfalls these homestays have now developed into nothing less than small hotels yet with the local flavors intact. Accommodation in Silk Route are family Run homestays provide all meal inclusive packages. So it means you will be staying with a local family taking care of all your requirements. Since the home stays are promoted by local government there is a certain standard of service they need to deliver. Also if ...
... you are a female travelling alone or in a group you are in the safest hands. Even though you will not have prompt service like a hotel but the mountain view and warmth of your host will make your stay worth while in East Sikkim.
