Hotels Near Laitlum Canyons in Shillong

The hotel is excellent. Staff behaviour is awesome and they are very helpful people. Restaurant ***** with the hotel is too good and most important part is everything in the hotel and its restaurant is clean. Also the fresh food has been served always. Overall experience is excellent.

A perfect place to stay with friends/family/couples. The property has 3 wings- heritage, forest and valley wing. We stayed in the valley wing. The rooms were small but cozy with a touch of royalty. The view of the city is amazing, especially at night, when city is all lit up. Some rooms have a balcony with is spacious and beautiful. The entire property is well maintained. It definitely provides you a feel of the historic past it beholds. They have designated breakfast and dinner areas in the different wings making sure that guests don't miss out on the heritage and royalty. Orchids and pine trees enhance its beauty. The significance of the horse shoe shaped entrance, the historic importance of different blocks, old photographs take you down the memory lane. The hospitality and food are good. Staff is very courteous. Ambience is great.It lives upto its name.

This is a simple, clean and quiet place to stay at while at Shillong. The rooms are large enough for a couple. The property is in a quieter part of the town. The staff at the reception, are friendly and efficient. The only area for improvement is breakfast. It is too simple. If they could add some fruit to begin with, it would make a big difference.

Orange Homestay is an excellent accommodation and is above Frank motors (Tata motors dealer). The rooms are spacious and very clean. The terrace is awesome as they have many flowering plants which are blooming. The food is also good but at times the wait time is more. The staff are very helpful and service oriented. They don't expect Tips. Very polite and well mannered. Breakfast options are limited but serving is generous and unlimited. There is only 1 chef and he arrives around 7 am. So the earliest you can expect the Breakfast is at 7:30 am. It would be either of Poori or Bhature or Aloo Paratha ***** with bread toast and bread sandwich. Whatever they cook is tasty. Coming to the drawbacks. 1) No lift. If you get room at 3rd floor then it will be difficult for elderly 2) The accommodation is on Laitmor/Mawblei main road which is always busy and very noisy. Sleeping in the night will be slightly difficult due to the vehicles making noise. 3) Very far away from Police bazaar. You need at least 1 hour by car to reach police bazaar though the distance is only 6 kms. Shillong traffic is pathetic. Taxi guys fleece you. It costed us 400 to come from Police Bazar to Orange homestay. There is no car parking as well at Police bazaar. So if you are keen to spend time on shopping then Orange homestay may not be the right place. We stayed in room 111 at 3rd floor and the room is massive in size. Very thoughtfully stocked with hot packs, geyser, Air conditioning which can also double up as heater, extra blankets etc.

The Taj Vivanta at Shillong Located smack bang in the the heart of Shillong, this hotel is a stone’s throw from the bustling Police Bazaar. The entrance to the hotel is unprepossessing and the lobby functional. All that changes, when the welcome becomes efficient and impressive. We were upgraded from a superior room to a suite, which is always welcome news. Check in was smooth and done in a few minutes. What impressed me was the warmth of the welcome and the courteousness of the staff receiving us, right from the security at the gate to the clerks at the counter. The suite, itself was capacious and divided into a large sitting area and a huge bedroom, well screened from the front door. There were TVs in both areas, for those inclined to be couch potatoes.. The commodious room, had its own seating as well All basic amenities including an iron, with an ironing board and a kettle to warm water was provided. Storage was adequate, but could have been a larger to accommodate clothes of 2 persons. This problem was a little acute since we were here for four days and didn’t want to live out of a suitcase. The toiletries and other sundries were quite good in a bathroom that was huge. There was a tub and a separate shower area. The housekeeping was top notch and the room was clean at all times. Any additional requests were promptly attended to While we were never in for lunch, the breakfast and dinner spread was sumptuous. There were items that could please every palate and the taste of the food would have satiated even the most critical of palates. Food could also be ordered of the menu. Our party of four, all vegetarians with individual likes and dislikes, were catered to with a smile and cheer. All our research on local eateries went for a toss since the taste and hospitality of the place drew us back every night. The chef, Mr. Pradyut Hazarika and his team deserve all encomiums for their cooking and plating and for their expertise over a wide variety of cuisines. A special mention should also be made of Mr. Fedrick Khyllep, who extended himself, not just at our table, but also across all the tables in the restaurant. The food and beverages manager, Mr. Amrit Kumar, is constantly patrolling his territory, ensuring that things run smoothly. The catering staff also specially baked a pineapple cake for one of our party (she loves pineapple cake) who celebrated her birthday. There was live music over the weekend and the singing by local talent on all three days was of top quality, Situated as it is, Police Bazaar is in walking distance. The central lake of Shillong, Wards Lake is also within walking distance. All in all, this was a lovely little place to stay in Shillong and my compliments to the manager, Mr. Praveen Sharda, for running a tight ship and for making this place a little home away from home

Great location, great food, clean and incredible staff. They made our stay very much comfortable and memorable. Food is really superb they have a pure vegetarian restaurant, must try their indian cuisine special dal makhani, aloo dum. Most recommended places to visit and stay in shillong.

The hotel should be a famous hotel in the local area! However, it is incomparable with the domestic 4 star hotel. The first hotel is relatively old, and the second hotel's supplies are relatively inferior. Only the staff are still pretty good, attitude is good, only live for one day, so in addition to feeling expensive, feeling worthwhile, the mood is not too bad! One night of transition, nothing to worry about!

The service is superb. The attendants / staff’s cordiality and hospitality is excellent which is in the person of Holyland. Holyland is very cordial and attentive. Her service is excellent. The food is delicious. The environment in the restaurant is first class.
