Hotels near Mawlai Umsaw Playground, Shillong

The hotel should be a famous hotel in the local area! However, it is incomparable with the domestic 4 star hotel. The first hotel is relatively old, and the second hotel's supplies are relatively inferior. Only the staff are still pretty good, attitude is good, only live for one day, so in addition to feeling expensive, feeling worthwhile, the mood is not too bad! One night of transition, nothing to worry about!

Stay was comfortable.excellent hospitality ,staff is very professional.special thanks to chef kalpesh and chef shafique for mouth watering food, housekeeping was excellent.surrly will come back and thanks once again for hospitality.enjoyed our stay.

Great location, great food, clean and incredible staff. They made our stay very much comfortable and memorable. Food is really superb they have a pure vegetarian restaurant, must try their indian cuisine special dal makhani, aloo dum. Most recommended places to visit and stay in shillong.

Convenient location just near police bazar. Very well maintained rooms, with good lighting and sitting arrangements. Tastefully decorated. Restaurant food was very tasty, served on time. The sweet little lady who manages the restaurant front office makes you feel better with her energetic presence. This was my third visit. Looking forward to many more.

The location was great as the hotel provides easy access to the city center. I felt safe since the provide good security service at the gate, the entrance and safety boxes in the room. The building is not luxury but has a rather basic, which was okay seeing that this is a rather remote city. There is a great variety and quality of food available at the breakfast and dinner buffet. Also locals come here to have dinner and I was told by some that they prefer the quality over the other 5 star hotel in town. During day, there is a la card lunch available. There is also a hotel bar provided, which was however always empty during working day evenings. The coffee bar with the pastry station seems to be permanently closed. The gym area is quite small and just provides few running machines and some free weights. The steam bath is on demand only. The massage service is with female therapists only. The room has basic settings. The cleanness especially of the floor could be better (I found several times quite some hair on the floor). The bed is comfortable and has good bed linen. The bath room is basic but has some good amenities. The laundry service is fast and reliable. The few power plugs in the room are somehow worn out which makes it a bit difficult to charge the batteries of the equipment. The quest cannot change the AC from cooling to heating. Heating has to be switched on centrally and for temperature changes you need to contact the front desk. As the interior of the buildings can become quite cold in January that has to be considered. The most important thing about this hotel is the amazing hospitality I have experience during these days at all levels of the personell at the security, the concierge, the reception, the house keeping, and first and foremost at the restaurant. They were all friendly, knowledgable, eager to help, reminded small concerns that I had, and were always approachable. I did not observe any client engagement of the F&B managers who were walking around at the restaurant. Overall I enjoyed my stay a lot.

A perfect place to stay with friends/family/couples. The property has 3 wings- heritage, forest and valley wing. We stayed in the valley wing. The rooms were small but cozy with a touch of royalty. The view of the city is amazing, especially at night, when city is all lit up. Some rooms have a balcony with is spacious and beautiful. The entire property is well maintained. It definitely provides you a feel of the historic past it beholds. They have designated breakfast and dinner areas in the different wings making sure that guests don't miss out on the heritage and royalty. Orchids and pine trees enhance its beauty. The significance of the horse shoe shaped entrance, the historic importance of different blocks, old photographs take you down the memory lane. The hospitality and food are good. Staff is very courteous. Ambience is great.It lives upto its name.

Orange Homestay is an excellent accommodation and is above Frank motors (Tata motors dealer). The rooms are spacious and very clean. The terrace is awesome as they have many flowering plants which are blooming. The food is also good but at times the wait time is more. The staff are very helpful and service oriented. They don't expect Tips. Very polite and well mannered. Breakfast options are limited but serving is generous and unlimited. There is only 1 chef and he arrives around 7 am. So the earliest you can expect the Breakfast is at 7:30 am. It would be either of Poori or Bhature or Aloo Paratha ***** with bread toast and bread sandwich. Whatever they cook is tasty. Coming to the drawbacks. 1) No lift. If you get room at 3rd floor then it will be difficult for elderly 2) The accommodation is on Laitmor/Mawblei main road which is always busy and very noisy. Sleeping in the night will be slightly difficult due to the vehicles making noise. 3) Very far away from Police bazaar. You need at least 1 hour by car to reach police bazaar though the distance is only 6 kms. Shillong traffic is pathetic. Taxi guys fleece you. It costed us 400 to come from Police Bazar to Orange homestay. There is no car parking as well at Police bazaar. So if you are keen to spend time on shopping then Orange homestay may not be the right place. We stayed in room 111 at 3rd floor and the room is massive in size. Very thoughtfully stocked with hot packs, geyser, Air conditioning which can also double up as heater, extra blankets etc.
