A real gem.
Pros:

This is the best place to stay in Darjeeling. The welcome we received was fantastic. The whole place is so clean and the room we stayed in was spacious, well kept and immaculate. Plenty of hot water, a heater and electric blanket provided for chillier nights. The breakfast was superb, and plentiful. We loved this wonderful heritage property and it's lovely staff so much we have booked to stay for longer. It was also perfectly situated for The Mall and the observation point.

I will definitely stay here again.
Pros:

Everything was excellent—the size of the room, the atmosphere, the comfort of the bed, the breakfast, and the shower's water pressure and temperature. Above all, the staff were wonderful. I am confident in recommending this hotel to others.

Cons:

It is unavoidable given the building's age, but the room tends to get stuffy and humid during the monsoon season. Installing an exhaust fan in the bathroom might help alleviate the issue somewhat.

Feel like my "Second Home" in India
Pros:

朝食は毎朝同じものを食べても全く飽きないおいしさ。スタッフがとても親切で丁寧、皆さん笑顔が素敵。ホテル自体も歴史の趣があり、風情がある。立地も街の中心に近い割に静かで安全な環境。

A glimpse of Darjeeling's glorious past.
Pros:

If you are looking to fall in love with Darjeeling's fascinating history this is the perfect spot. Charming historic hotel at affordable prices with the most accommodating staff! Beautiful dining room for breakfast or other meals if you like. Very tasty breakfast selections including both Indian and Western choices. Modern bathrooms inside each room, very comfortable beds. Staff were so flexible about breakfast I was able to squeeze in early morning trekking or yoga without missing out!

Cons:

Darjeeling is quite hilly so this hotel is slightly downhill from the main town. Not a problem at all if you want a quiet spot just a few steps away from the main market area.

All the pleasures of a good hotel and the personal touch of a home-stay. Highly recommend.
Pros:

There's a lot to like about this place: generous and friendly staff, large high-ceiling rooms, spacious showers with hot water, delicious breakfast, proximity to chowrasta, a quiet place to sit outside, and of course, the delight of staying in a heritage home.

Cons:

There was nothing about the property that I did not like. However, while the ceilings are high, they are also wooden and thin - so if you are a light sleeper, I recommend getting an upstairs room. That, or hope for your upstairs neighbors to be considerate human beings :)

Pros:

Außerordentlich freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal, sehr praktisch am Ende der Mall road gelegen, angenehme Nachbarschaft.
Ein Haus mit Geschichte und individuell gestalteten Zimmern, sehr zu empfehlen!!

Cons:

Man kann natürlich nicht den Luxus eines hochpreisigen Hotels erwarten

I loved the stay and would definitely stay there if I visit again.
Pros:

I loved the periodic mid 19th century British feel of the place. The staff were amazing and really kept you supported throughout your stay. Nothing was an issue and Anna and her team were brilliant in helping out.
Though it was cold there were a number of heaters.

Cons:

It could do with just a bit of TLC, maybe a lick of paint and a bit of maintenance in the shower.
