The stay decisions worth flagging in Ravangla.
Ravangla is a quiet South Sikkim town famous for the 130-ft Buddha Park statue. Stay scene is small mountain resorts (Mt. Narsing Village Resort, Hotel Norbugang) and homestays. No luxury. Peak tourist season Oct-May; monsoon closes most access roads Jun-Sep. Combine with Tendong forest trek, Buddha Park, and Pelling (52 km west).
Ravangla has small-scale village resorts only — Mt. Narsing Village Resort is the most reviewed option. No luxury alternative. For Ravangla-base Buddha Park visit + Tendong forest trek, 1-2 nights is enough. Combine with Pelling (52 km) for West Sikkim circuit.
Mt. Narsing Village Resort
Small-scale Ravangla resort with fitness centre, garden, restaurant-bar. Courteous staff is the most-cited positive in reviews. Good base for Buddha Park (5 min) and Tendong forest trek.
