Excellent value! comfortable,caring host.Well stocked kitchen,clean.

The best Homestay experience I've had. Anne and Maik made our stay in Shillong really memorable and extremely comfortable.

Anne and Maik are two of the most hospitable people I have met. They took care of every possible detail from providing fresh towels to stocking the kitchen with food and even provided us with an itenary, contacts of taxis and the places which we should try. In fact there was a live show at one of the places and they ensured that we were aware of the same. They were extremely helpful and warm and made our 3 day stay in Shillong extremely memorable. I had a great time chatting with them, be it over coffee or breakfast. I highly recommend their place to anyone those who are looking for something non commercial and more homely and want to truly experience the hills of Shillong.

Anne thank you for making our stay so so special! You are an amazing host . Hello to Mike and Cesar!! Hope to see you very soon!!

Hi Anne & Mike.....just one thing to say "Khublei Shibun" :-)

What an amazing stay it was at Anne's place. Please add it to the list of things you must do/stay at while in Shillong. It is a beautiful English country cottage, which looks out of a story book. Quaint and adorable. But that's not the best part. The best part is Anne and her family. The warmth extended by Anne and her entire family made me feel instantly at home. Anne always made sure that my stay was comfortable. From the amazing meals to the detailed information for all my travels, Anne and Mike were always there. Anne's passion and knowledge about the local culture and traditions is amazing. She is truly passionate about her guests experiencing the beauty of the amazing state of Meghalaya. Only regret, I did not have enough days. A stay at Russet cottage is a must when in Shillong. Have travelled the world and stayed at many places,this one makes it to the top of the list. Will definitely go back to Shillong only to stay at Anne's.

This place is a great find. Russet homestay is located a little bit off the main road so, it is well-protected from the usual traffic and hustle, but at the same time easily accessible to many general stores and restaurants. The room itself was cozy and comfortable and well-equipped. Warm beds, TV, a small kitchenette and a clean washroom, what else do you need. For this price, this place was truly an amazing find and gave me a home-away-from-home kind of experience. Other than the place, I have to mention what an amazing host Anne is. She is very helpful, friendly and has immense knowledge about the place. Since I was travelling alone and for the first time, I had no idea how I could plan out the places I need to visit. She was able to help me with planning out my itenary for the duration of my stay. One of the days, I had to start from the room at 7:30 AM and wasn’t expecting breakfast to be ready, but Anne was aware of my plans and made sure I had my meal before leaving. She also dried up my clothes which I clumsily tried to dry up by handing on the door and chairs, a very sweet gesture indeed :) She has a wonderful view on life and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations. All in all, it was an awesome experience staying at Russet and if you found this listing then go for it. You won’t regret staying here and will love every moment of it.

I've always felt a positive smile on my face whenever I hear Anne's words like "Hii Neil..". You've always heard a quote "HOME AWAY FROM HOME" for the homestays. But, this quote is actually created for RUSSET Homestay only. Anne & Maik are not only the best host but one of perfect couple I've ever seen. Tinja have some magic in her hands to cook delicious food and Caesar is very sweet dog with innocent eyes. And there sons are very nice boys with helpful nature. And Anne & Maik are the kind of persons who can help you anytime and everytime with their best efforts. And the room you'll get will be equipped with all (all means all) required things right from the Umbrella, torch, hair dryer, bath products (soap, shampoo, toothpaste, cream, ear buds, cotton balls etc..), kitchen Products (Maggi, soup, ration products, required utensils etc), to everything you're going to need throughout your stay. Their home is really very beautiful with that vintage colonial feel. One day, me & my wife returned totally wet because of the rain, and instantly, when we got inside the home, Anne offered us hot cup of tea, that feels really like home. We guys were that much connected to Anne & Maik in those 4 days, that they invited us for dinner and served great food with amazing VODKA (it was really amazing because Anne made it with her perfect bar-tending skills). When we were leaving for our home, the thought that was running in our mind is when we were going to come here again. And undoubtedly, that time is going to come soon and this time, it'll be for more days and more fun for sure. And Anne, don't forget to come here. Visit us soon. Had an amazing Shillong Trip !!

We can enjoy the location and Marvelous facility. Suitable for family and married couples.

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Dhruva was an amazing host. He helped us not just with his great hospitality but also arranged for a cab for us and gave us a checklist on all places to visit. J.P was at hand to help us for any requirements. Overall, the stay was perfect.

The place was very comfortable. Just the way i saw in the pics. There were a few things which would make it more convenient for travellers: not enough storage space to keep things... bed side tables aren't good enough. also the bunk bed has hardly any head room for an adult. the bathroom was big but the washbasin could do with a counter. since i was travelling with 3 women, they didn't feel comfortable because the apt was on the ground floor... but that was for the given situation. lastly, it was located very centrally...3min walk from police bazaar. the only problem we faced was that it was situated down a steep slope because of which it was difficult to walk in and out. also most cabs refused to take us to our destination. with luggage we didn't have an option

Good rooms for a good price at a good location. Dhruva has been very helpful to make sure that our stay in Shillong was a memorable one

Clean and well located, just a 2 min walk away from the main city centre. There's a caretaker for the property who was very helpful. Bonus points for the complimentary breakfast in the morning.

It was as described in the listing! Thanks for a seamless stay. It was a great experience!

The house is beautiful. It has very sweet gardens to relax. The rooms are large, clean and very comfortable. Everyone is very courteous. They also make delicious food. The location is also good. The car they provided to travel out of Shillong to nearby towns had such an experienced driver with good knowledge about travelling in and out of Meghalaya. I had a great holiday.

It's been great staying there! We went back to the place to stay again on the same trip! Fun to stay

Location, hospitality and food are the usp's. It's definitely value for money and must visit place once.

It is a very clean guesthouse that has everything you need. They helped out with travel plans around Shillong and always made sure dinner and breakfast was taken care of. It is great for wanting a quiet, clean place.

We had an incredible time at Philamon's guest house. It was well maintained and extremely clean. Hillbert and all the other staff were extremely hospitable and we were served some great food for dinner. To add to that they even complied with my last minute laundry request which I'm very grateful for. Hillbert arranged a driver for us the next day and himself accompanied us to the destination which was very kind and genourous of him. He made sure we were safe and gave us his number in case we needed anything. Extremely grateful for this behaviour and restores our trust in people. Had an incredible stay and very impressed by the aftermath, would definitely recommend the guest house to my everyone. PS: do have one meal here. The cook cooks delicious food.

Nice ambience, central location and friendly staff. Overall a good experience

The ambience was beautiful, the reception staff was extremely cordial & responsive & it was away from the loud commercial spaces .

Location is good...Walkable from the markets and set in a quiet neighbourhood with good security. Staff is friendly and very helpful. Well maintained garden space and sitting area for a relaxing evening. Good view of the neighbourhood from the windows (depending on which room you stay in) Breakfast menu is not elaborate and one needs to avoid the last 30 - 40mins to ensure they are served every item before the waiter tells you its over.. Not all channels available on the cable network and television is placed in the living room not bedroom(which actually was nice for a change) All in all... A pleasant, quiet stay

Dinesh was truly a remarkable host. What a friendly, kind, and generous host to have in a new city. He helped us with travel plans around the city and to nearby Cherranpunjee, provided assistance with local currency exchange, and was very kind with any other request my friend and I had. What an exceptional host, ensuring a comfortable stay in Shillong. I recommend staying at this guesthouse with 5 stars due to the helpful accommodations. Thank you Dinesh and everyone else at the guesthouse!

Thank you for another lovely stay, Dinesh! We extended our original stay by two more nights due to Pash K Re Guesthouse's accommodating host, Dinesh. What a wonderful place to explore Shillong and Cherranpunjee.

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

The place is in a nice quiet area which was just what we wanted. You have to take a cab to go to restaurants but that is to be expected. The caretakers were very sweet and they all did everything to make things pleasant. No complaints, definitely would return. Their recommended car rental was so-so. we changed after the ride from the airport.

Nice place and good hospitality . Enjoyed our stay at this place and will surely recommend others for this stay

I didn't realise that Farida is not there as she was giving me all perfect directions till I reached the place.Her assistants helped us in settling down.The place was well kept.I loved the little baskets in which all toiletries were kept.The bathroom had a solar geyser so we couldn't have a bath in the morning as the water was not heated(That was the only drawback).

Nice place and good room ... Surrounded by scenic view of pine trees . good staff and on the whole we had a good experience.

For those who like to spend a couple of days of peace and tranquility this is going to be a great option. With a backdrop of pine forest and the hills a short walk around will definitely do great to the oxygen level in your lungs. A Simple, clean and warm place to stay. A bit away from the city centre but great if you want to run away from the chaos.

It matched the expectations. Perfectly happy.

Great experience! Eric and the rest of the staff are fantastic hosts, they were very helful and advise us about what to do in Shillong. The hostal is clean, confortable and the breakfast is very good. I absolutly recomend it!

Travelers BnB is an awesome place to stay, exactly as advertised, and situated in a great location, very close to Polo Market where you can go for a stroll in the evening; well-connected by buses and taxis to all the main areas of Shillong. Eric and his team are very warm people and they made us feel right at home! The long chats we had with Eric made our trip so much more worthwhile, and his insights into the many places to visit in and around Shillong was extremely helpful. He helped us plan our itinerary and also gave us many tidbits that wouldn't be found on any website or book! :) Thanks Eric for our wonderful stay! We had intially booked for only 3 nights, but had to overstay and Eric was sweet to accommodate us in the same room. We stayed in what was earlier Eric's parents room; it was clean, rustic, and utilitarian, with a table, two chairs, wardrobe space, and twin beds. There was minimal intrusion but ample interaction with the host! The breakfast provided was simple, wholesome, and had variety each day. As soon as we checked in, Eric handed us the wifi password. Everything about our stay was real smooth... A definite must stay for people looking for a home away from home!

Travellers B&B is an excellent option for stay while at Shillong. The description mentioned in the listing is accurate. The rooms are very clean. The food is delicious and comes at a very fair price. The place is located slightly away from the town centre in a quiet neighbourhood. The Wi-Fi is pretty good and the DTH has a first-rate assortment of TV channels. Above all, Eric is an awesome host. He ensured that we had a great experience, not only at the B&B, but throughout our travel in Meghalaya. Having been a guide himself, he gave us a very accurate guidance on how to go about the living root bridge trek at Cherrapunjee, and it turned out to be extremely helpful. Overall, we loved Travellers B&B, and it would be our preferred choice of stay the next time we are at Shillong.

Eric is a superhost. He is a complete package and was available readily. He made sure that we had a pleasant stay in Shillong. He recommended good vegetarian local restaurants.

It was great to have stayed at Traveller's B&B. Very clean and minimalistic, which I thoroughly loved. Eric who is the owner is very helpful and cooperative. When I booked, only 2 of us were supposed to stay. But we had a change of plans when another friend joined us. But Eric agreed to put another bed in the room at an economical rate. The place is very well connected to the rest of the city. Ahh, I am forgetting the lovely food that we had at the place. Simple yet flavourful and totally home cooked food. Loved it! The staff was also helpful and took care of us just like family. Will totally stay again on my next trip to the very pretty Shillong! All the best Eric. Cheers

My husband and I had a very pleasant stay at Eric's. Eric helped us out with lot of things including bike rental. He was always available in person or on phone whenever we needed. The room was spacious, airy, clean and comfortable. Homely food is another plus point. Highly recommended. :)

Travelers BnB was a happy stay altogether. The rooms are cheerful and well thought out regarding travellers needs. Eric was very helpful n I appreciate his style of hospitality. While the location is good for getting a local market experience... Food options were limited within walking distance.

This place is perfect for any one looking for a super nice homely experience in Shillong . The host Alan is really helpful and his mom Aunty Pari cooks some of the most phenomenal home cooked meals. The garden is beautiful and bustling with bird life. I did not expect this place to be so secluded and quiet although being in the heart of Shillong.

Confirm with the host if the charges levied are per person, and if so if that is a single room.

The place is very well built architecturally . Special appreciation to Kong , house keeper,who is always smiling and available.

Thanks a ton for hosting us at your home. Me and my friends had an amazing time. Special thanks to Kong and Lam for taking such good care of us. This is a beautiful home located on the 3rd mile upper Shillong. Would recommend this to families, group of friends who would like to enjoy a peaceful vacation in a truly special home. Best place I've stayed in a long long time!

Nel Sedone is an ideal place to stay at shillong.The care taker was present to receive us when we arrived.She was Very Cordial & Helpful. The Neighborhood is very peaceful & ideal as compared to the city as the city has has regular traffic jams. Situated at Upper Shillong on Cherrapunji road very well connected to local site seeing at Shillong & Cherrapunji

Totally enjoyed our stay at nel sedone. Me and some friends spent a couple of nights there over the NYE. Had some great moments living in this passionately built house located in a quite and peaceful locality in upper Shillong. The service provided was also good and made us feel at home. Would love to come back again!

Loved everything! Definitely recommend the place.

Lovely place... very well maintained.. good for family outings of 4-6 people. This place being bit off from the main road , the lane that leads to the house is narrow but there is parking available & stay for driver is available. we had carried ready to eat food which we could heat in the micro & eat.. We even bought some eggs n bread for breakfast & made tea n coffee. Basic things are available nearby.. veggies & all can be bought from Police bazar if u want to cook full meal. Kong the caretaker was very helpful who may not be very good with hindi or english but she understands if you explain well. We really enjoied staying at this place.

Habari's home is simply beautiful, the perfect place is to unwind, and not too far from Shilling proper. Kong is a warm and wonderful caretaker and the dogs make the place feel happy and welcoming. Thank you for a warm and welcoming stay at your home, Habari!

This place is just plain awesome, the decor, the comfort, everything about it is pure. Navigating to the place can be tedious and the place is a little bit further away from city center but as soon as you reach the flat you'll fall in love with it. Elizabeth was not in town, so she assigned Prakash to help us out, he was very polite and stayed to make sure we had a comfortable stay.

Dimon (the host) took good care of us. Surprisingly, the stay at this house was the best part of our trip to shillong.

Came back from Shillong today after a comfortable stay in Elizabeth's homestay. The place is around 15-20 mins driving distance from PoliceBazar. Although cabs are available in 2-3 mins walking distance from the stay. I will recommend this stay for the fellow travelers who would like to get the homelike freedom and space. Specially for family travelers with kids, this place is surely recommended. Regarding the room condition and food options, those may not be as comparable to 4-5 star hotel, but they compensate with their intent and effort to match to your expectations.

We had a wonderful time staying with Elizabeth. She and her staff were very welcoming, professional, and helpful during our stay.

We had a pleasant stay at Elizabeth’s place. The apartment was as described and well equipped. Although we didn’t meet her, we met her partner Rishi who made sure we were comfortable and at home. He provided us with an extra room heater as it was quite chilly. He also made arrangements for our breakfast. Rishi is very well versed with the outdoor activities in and around the region. Will definitely revisit them for the stay and the outdoor activities.

Clean and decent homely rooms

We had a wonderful stay at Elizabath's apartment for four days.We were two families with kids. We loved the ambience, the cooking of diman our housekeepr and the service provided by our host. she took pains to give as nagaland food one day. Whatever we asked as special request was provided. We very much appreciate the suggestions in sight seeing not only in shillong but also in guwahati given by our co host Mr Rishi. On the whole we where always at home in shillong. We strongly recommend to all families with kids this apartment for a nice experience.

Very hospitable, warm and flexible in a nice location. Neat and clean place and good food as well. The host is very sweet and upfront about her requirements. We had a lot of fun and will recommend it for anyone who wants a great home stay experience and is sick of typical hotels

Wonderful place.

Great place to stay. Loved the interiors and hospitality :)

Ian's place is just amazing.. Very scenic and peaceful. It is in the middle of farms and you can just go for walks around the place. The hospitality was also very good.
