Pros:

I booked this place for my parents' anniversary and they were on their own so I was constantly talking to Philip from the hotel making arrangements. From what I heard from my parents it was a wonderful stay. Couldn't have been better. Philip and the other staff really took care of everything so a big thank you the team

Hôtel idéealement situé dans Darjeeling pour aller à pied. Repas plus compliqués.
Pros:

L'hotêl est super bien situé dans Darjeeling pour faire pas mal de choses à pied. Vu la circulation dans la ville, c'est souvent préférable d'être piéton. La situation de l'hôtel permet de profiter des restaurants du centre ville mais aussi d'aller à la gare par exemple qui n'est qu'à 15 min à pied ou sur la place principale pour profiter de l'ambiance.
Demandez des chambres en hauteur si possible pour profiter de la vue qui est magnifique !

Cons:

Sauf si vous êtes amateurs de repas indiens, le petits-déjeuner est compliqué... Un ptit dej continental est proposé mais il est vraiment léger en offres et les oeufs au plat sont payants...
Nous étions un peu seuls pour les diners également avec un personnel qui nous l'a fait comprendre... On ne choisit pas cet hôtel pour ses repas. Il est préférable de sortir. Heureusement c'est possible et facile !

Very average, not at all comparable with service and quality you get in Sikkim.
Pros:

Just the location but there are plenty in the same location..

Cons:

everything average. Food not that good. Stay not as expected as per the reviews. They don’t even have umbrellas to drop their Clients till the cab pick up point. Monkey issues so need to keep the windows closed . Breakfast ordinary
