Some mundane facts as of October 2010 :

Hotel charge at Damsung guest house, Pedong – Rs. 600 per day

Prakriti Eco Resort at Rishi – Rs. 800
Contact : Mr.Chumbay Bhutia 09932261029

Green Cottage at Zuluk – Rs. 800
Gopal Pradhan (9609860266), Suraj Pradhan (7872883264) in Zuluk

Hotel Aditya in Aritar : Mrs. Geeta Pradhan 099324 87358 / 99322 24273 / 099334 70788
Kanchenjunga Mirror at Aritar – Rs. 500

Hotel Zodiac at Darjeeling – Rs. 1200
Contact : 09733466695

These rates were inflated by at least 20-25 %, except at Aritar where we booked directly.

Car rate from NJP to Pedong – Rs. 2100
Pedong sight-seeing – Rs. 800
Pedong to Rishi – Rs. 750
Rishi to Zuluk – Rs. 2600
Zuluk to Tsangu lake and back – Rs. 2900
Zuluk sunrise only – Rs. 700
Zuluk to Hotel Aditya at Aritar – Rs. 2600
Hotel Aditya to Hotel Kanchenjunga Mirror – Rs. 250
Aritar sight-seeing – Rs. 200
Aritar to Darjeeling – Rs. 3100
Darjeeling toy-train ride – Rs. 240 per head
Darjeeling sight-seeing except Tiger hill – Rs. 1100
Darjeeling to Bagdogra via Sukhiapokhri-Jorpokhri-Mirik – Rs. 2200

Again, these were on the higher side as we had booked the cars at Kolkata, except for sight-seeing at Aritar and Darjeeling.

We thank those who have gone through this thread so far and ask them to visit this area. That sunrise over the Kanchanjunga - will rinse you of the earthly sins, if any.
