Very near to the Police bazaar intersection. great location. restaurant is only by name, has three to four tables, very congested. Breakfast is horrible. not worth paying anything. Rooms are decent. Staff (Gautam and others) are friendly. Only one parking space at the hotel! There are similar cheaper options available around.

The room was average. There were a lot of smokers on the corridor I believe and the room perennially stank of smoke and it was pretty disgusting for us on-smokers. Rooms are quite comfortable but they do not have room heaters in Shillong, where temperatures go as low as 0 degrees Celsius. Service was pretty decent. The complimentary breakfast was... More

Not recommended for people who wish to spend to get even basic comforts.

The only great thing about this hotel is its location. The cons are cramped parking, cramped rooms, peeling plasters from the walls. But yes, the staff was nice and helpful. Could work at improvements especially the breakfast spread. Better than many other hotels in shillong.

Stayed at the Silk Route for two nights on a work trip in April 2012. Good, clean, spacious rooms and comfy bed. Reasonable bathroom and very nice shower. Free wireless that was pretty fast (for rural India). Hotel staff at reception and in (free) breakfast room were helpful and really polite. I stayed in second floor with room overlooking street--...

I stayed in this hotel last month, thinking it was one of the best properties in Shillong. But, the room was cramped, had a cracked door, thus rendering the room very very cold. The jet spray in the bathroom was a mere dangling showpiece. Parking in the basement was a pain in the neck ( yes, when you have to... More
