A small Shiva temple sits within the premises, and the terrace provides seating with views of the river and the Bangladesh border.

Rooms & Views

Each room at this recently renovated guest house includes a seating area, a kettle, and a private bathroom with towels and toiletries. Several rooms feature a terrace with mountain views, and all units are equipped with air conditioning - a rare amenity in Dawki. The top-floor common seating area overlooks the Umngot River and the Bangladesh market, and the terrace offers sunset views.

Dining

The in-house kitchen serves only pure vegetarian food, with meals prepared to order using home-cooked recipes. Guests have praised the dal fry, jeera rice, aloo paratha and Kadai paneer, noting that the food is less oily and less spicy. Breakfast and dinner are available on the terrace, and the host can accommodate special requests for local dishes.
