Yarlam Resort
One of the better-known hotels in Lachung, on the edge of the village with views up the valley. It costs more than the homestays, and suits couples and families who want heated rooms and a dependable base for Yumthang and Zero Point.

Most Lachung rooms are in small family hotels and homestays assigned by tour operators. Yarlam Resort is one of the established, larger properties that travellers book by name, usually for a Comfort-tier trip or a honeymoon. It sits on the edge of the village with mountain views, and it is used to tour-group schedules: early breakfasts for Yumthang and late dinners after the long drive.
We list it because it is well known and has operated for years, not because we have inspected every room. It is a step up in price from homestays, so book it if a warm room and more reliable hot water matter to you in winter. Confirm heating, hot water, meal plans and current rates when you book, and check current status of the North Sikkim road before you travel.
Why we suggest it
- An established Lachung hotel used to tour schedules
- A warmer, more comfortable option for winter and honeymoons
- Easy base for the 6 am Yumthang and Zero Point departure
We list rates as indicative ranges. We do not take commission from this property for being listed here. Check current status before you travel.
