This is a well located, decent and attractive hotel providing glimpses of Kanchenjunga, eastern Himalayas and Darjeeling town from its verandahs and terraces .Suites are available at reasonable tariff and give feeling of bygone era. Though maintenance is a bit lacking but the location and views of Darjeeling landscapes and mountains compensates for it. Chaurasta Mall, the central place of... More

Excellent if you are interested in heritage building. Spacious rooms, though not well maintained. Be careful of mice and rats in few rooms those may cause damage to your valuables. Service is not praiseworthy. There is scope of improvement as far as housekeeping is considered. Located at one of the best places if you are interested to spend your holiday... More

A very old property and the hotel reception staff is too arrogant and not at all helpful.It seems they are doing a courtesy by providing you a room.There are too many hidden costs involved in the room tariff,you would not be told about the fire place charcoal cost while they will light the same for you every evening and when...

We were lodged in VIP rooms and they were quite comfortable. Big size and wood paneled. Nice and clean toilet. Cozy rooms with fire place and external heaters. Only problem with this utility is service which is horrible. They have a good restaurant called Opium but staffs are not well trained. difficult to converse in English.

One of the places we have frequented when traveling with friends in Darj. The place has an old world charm and the location is one of the best. The rooms have been renovated i am told but the bathing areas need a serious facelift (especially the room we stayed in Rm. No 4) ! The mattress and pillows gave all... More

Darjeeling is not a new kid of the block. She is an old lady, graceful, dignified and still very very charmning if you are the right kind of company to keep. and there are a few places that bring out the best in Darjeeling. Darjeeling Planters Club is a personal favourite from this angle. With the recent renovations, things have... More
