I had to climb a lot of stairs to reach the stay as it’s located higher up, which was bit tiring but once I reached , the experience was definitely worth it.

Stay was very amazing. Room was exactly as it was shown in the pictures. Balcony view was fantastic. The host and the staff was very helpful and polite. Had a really amazing time.

The only downside is the property is located 2-3 floors up from the ground level with no lift. You will need to climb the stairs

The view was great & staff was very friendly. The room was spacious

Lack of room service and some basic amenities

The location and the view

Stayed in June 2025

The hosts were sweet enough to guide us through out the stay with multiple calls - to reach the location, get a taxi, breakfast/dinner, parking space. Also kind gesture of delivering food to the room, instead of dining area. They were helpful to carry our luggage up the stairs. PS: Not to complaint on the property or the hosts Only downside of this stay was, there's no direct road access. You'll have to climb up 3-4 floors of stairs from main road.

A bit far from central town (not ideal if you want to stay near Mall Road)

recently stayed at Asraya Homestay in Darjeeling from 9th to 12th February, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. If you're looking for a quiet, cozy, and budget-friendly stay in Darjeeling, this place is worth considering. Here’s my detailed review: Location & Accessibility (4/5) Asraya Homestay is located in a peaceful area, away from the usual hustle and bustle of Darjeeling town. While it may not be right at the heart of the town, it offers a tranquil retreat for those who prefer a quieter environment. If you're someone who enjoys exploring on foot like me, it’s a decent walk to reach the main spots like Chowrasta and Mall Road. For those who prefer easy access to shops and cafes, it might feel a bit far, but for travelers looking for peace and a homely atmosphere, it’s a great place to stay. Room & Cleanliness (5/5) The rooms at Asraya Homestay are clean, spacious, and well-maintained. The wooden interiors add a cozy vibe, making it perfect for a relaxed stay. The bedding was comfortable, and the room was warm enough even in the cold weather. The attached bathroom was clean with running hot water, which is a must in Darjeeling. The only small drawback was that an extra blanket would have been nice, though I’m sure the hosts would provide one if requested. Food & Dining (4.5/5) One of the highlights of the stay was the vegetarian food available on order. The meals were freshly prepared, homely, and absolutely delicious. Even though I had planned most of my meals in town, I did get to try their food, and I was impressed by the quality and taste. If you’re someone who prefers simple, clean, and tasty vegetarian food, this is a great option. The hosts take special care in preparing meals, which adds to the overall experience. Hospitality & Service (5/5) The hosts were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. Their polite and attentive service made the stay even more comfortable.

Nothing to dislike

Food, vibes, space, aesthetics, host n staff Balcony view is a cherry on the cake Asraya isn’t just a stay it’s basically an emotion. You feel it almost in every corner of the place. It’s an emotion which you would wanna revisit again and again. Truly a home away from home

The room is spacious and comes with an impeccably clean washroom, spacious balcony facing the valley . Its location is ideal, just a short walking distance from Mall Road. The hosts are incredibly kind and gracious, and their breakfast is an absolute delight, it has a local touch . We stayed during Diwali and Vicky and family invited us to join their celebrations, which turned our stay into an unforgettable experience.

I was initially skeptical about this property, but it turned out to be an absolute gem! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed by the owner, Vicky, who is incredibly helpful and engaging. He made sure everything was perfect throughout my stay and was always available to assist with anything I needed. His family is just as lovely, always welcoming and kind. The property itself is beautiful, well-maintained, and offers a peaceful retreat. It’s situated in a hilly area, so be prepared for a short climb up some stairs to reach the property, but the walk is worth it! It’s only a short walk from Mall Road, making it convenient to explore the area while still offering a quiet and relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend this homestay for anyone looking for a genuine, warm experience with great hospitality. Thank you, Vicky and family, for making my stay so memorable!

Nothing to not like.

Stayed at Asraya Homestay for 3 nights, and it was an unforgettable experience. The homestay offers some of the most beautiful mountain views you could ask for. Although my 3 rooms didn’t have a direct view of Kanchenjunga, the scenery was still breathtaking, and all the pictures you see online are absolutely true – it’s just as stunning in real life. The location is ideal, only a 15-minute walk from Chauk Bazaar, making it convenient yet peaceful. The hospitality here is top-notch. Vicky, the host, is one of the warmest, most helpful people I’ve met. He went out of his way to assist whenever there were any issues with drivers, which made my stay stress-free and enjoyable. A tip: definitely speak with him before booking any transport or packages – his knowledge and connections are invaluable! The cleanliness and upkeep of Asraya Homestay are impeccable, and the staff are friendly and attentive. And don’t miss trying the tea – Vicky serves the best tea I had in Darjeeling, perfect for enjoying with the beautiful views. Overall, Asraya Homestay is a gem in Darjeeling. Its new so there are less reviews to go by but I’m sure they will become one of the bests in no time. If you’re looking for a place with great views, exceptional hospitality, and all the comforts you’d need, this is it. I’ll definitely be back!
