Sumi Yashshree Hotels & Resorts

About The Brand

Sumi Yashshree Hotels & Resorts is one of the most trusted and rapidly expanding hospitality chains across the Eastern Himalayas, especially in Sikkim, Darjeeling Hills, North Bengal and adjoining destinations. The group is known for combining mountain hospitality with modern comfort and well-maintained properties located very close to tourist centers and sightseeing areas.

Their properties are strategically situated near major attractions such as MG Marg in Gangtok and Mall Road in Darjeeling so that travellers can explore easily without transportation difficulties.
