Aapas residency is definitely recommended if anyone is visiting kalimpong. Very nice and clean, big rooms, awesome view with a beautiful small garden, outside seating area, lots of varieties of plants and of course the service is definitely the best. The owner avikesh, the manager sajan and his support staffs asit, nimrod, yakub, lakhpa. They all were very supportive and well spoken. They were all very polite. My kids just loved the place. Both of them got so friendly with them. Most interestingly asit, nimrod and yakub are all guitarist and can play very nice western music. I was touched by their talent. Actually the behaviour of the staffs and the service makes aapas residency the perfect place to spend the holidays.
