Hotels in Sikkim, India

Sikkim is a Himalayan state in northeast India, famous for the towering Mount Kanchenjunga, ancient Buddhist monasteries, and vibrant rhododendron forests. The climate varies by altitude-summers (March to June) are mild with temps around 50-75°F (10-24°C), perfect for trekking in the Kanchenjunga National Park or rafting on the Teesta River, while winters (October to February) bring snow and chilly air, dropping to 20-50°F (-6 to 10°C), ideal for seeing frozen lakes and visiting the Rumtek Monastery. If you head to Gangtok, you'll find bustling markets and the Tashi Viewpoint, whereas Lachung offers high-altitude snow and hot springs, and Pelling gives you close-up views of Kanchenjunga's sunrise.
