    It is a wonderful property which is located very centrally in Darjeeling, making most places within the town accessible on foot. The property itself is new & beautifully done up. The staff was very polite & helpful, always with pleasant smiling faces. The breakfast spread is good and the menu is changed everyday. The restaurant menu is also reasonably good. All in all great value for money. Strongly recommended.

    Nothing … it was a great choice

    Beautiful rooms with mountain views. The location is high, central and away from motor traffic. Very helpful, friendly and kind staff, especially Zaed who was always there to assist.

    Nothing specific - perhaps a complementary breakfast would make it more value for money

    The location is right at the mall road and close to all the major spots of Darjeeling. The hotel itself is beautiful in its aesthetics and comfortable to stay in . The staff were friendly and ensured our rooms got cleaned everyday for the 3 days we stayed there.

    They should accept international cards as the charge is a significant amount.

    The location is superb, as close to mall as it gets. The staff are really friendly. The facilities and the decor are top notch. Don’t miss to check out the Attic.

    The only disadvantage I feel is the road on which the hotel is .. as it’s quite unkempt and untidy . But this is not the fault of the hotel as it the main local road .

    The staff was extremely extremely hospitable and polite, something which is becoming quite rare in this industry with limited interaction and attention span of both the customers and the front desk . Also the rooms were very spacious with ample space to move around. But I feel the main bonus point for this particular hotel is the location . It right on the Mall area, to give you an estimate , Glenarys is at a more distance from the main Mall area than this Hotel! 😄

    There was some smell in the room, like sewage. But only in one room, the other room was fine. The TVs did not have prime or netflix.

    Food was excellent, beyond expected. They catered to our requests as well. The location is really good, close to mall road, nehru road, chowrasta etc. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

    1. Absolutely everything 2. Breakfast: a. The Breakfast which was included has been same everyday with little or no option other than paratha or luchi with one sabji. b. The quantity was very very poor. c. The water at the breakfast table was also paid if you drink more than what has been given. d. The omlette has been served with one egg and even after requesting also they will not serve more than one. e. Very very insufficient for one person per meal. f. The dining place was not clean. 3. Room Cleaning and amenities supply like tea/coffee: a. Except of one person who has been excellent (Chorden Lepcha) in servicing everyone has been very lazy and no one came for cleaning even after you ask for the cleanup. They will only come after you request 3 - 4 times. b. The quantity of water given per day was 1 liter which is absolutely in contradiction to a normal stay of Rs 1500 per day. c. The bathing place use to have a half separation and one person bathing the total bathroom will be water logged and it will take evening to move all the water. You will not find anyone to clean the same as well. d. The bathrooms were also not cleaned everyday and that leaves the beautiful aroma which will make you sick very easily. 4. Lunch/Dinner: a. Highly expensive and not worth at all with respect to the quantity served. 5. Room Rent and others: a. Rent is too much expensive with respect to the services and others provided. b. They charged me Rs 47500.00 (Rupees Fourty Seven thousand Five Hundred for 5 nights) which is Rs 9500 (Nine Thousand five hundred per night) per night plus Taxes (which is also charged very high). c. The rate that has been charged is equivalent to any 5 start hotel and I was expecting the same. To my astonishment what I received is not even 1 star. d. On the top of the same when I asked for help to drop me at the taxi stand I have been told that there is no one is available as there is a huge rush e. Actually Simple people only slaughtered here.

    Location is very near to the MALL but the roads are absolutely filthy and filled in with garbage and if you walk you feel like vomiting.
