Pensions in Darjeeling

'The staff are lovely and helpful and hotel is quite nice. Its location is also very central. The hotel room was quite cold, however, due to gaps between the windows and the window frame. The hotel offers heaters but these are reasonably pricey. I was able to manage in November but I suspect it would be miserable in December and January. Also the hot water supply was inadequate. It took 20-25 mins to heat up and I found that I had to turn up the heat every minute to keep it reasonably warm.'

'Goomtee Tea Garden estate is a lovely place to escape for a weekend. The staff are exceptionally friendly and kind, and of course it was lovely to have fresh delicious tea grown on the estate. Staff will arrange a tour of the tea plantation as well as the factory upon request and can also help arrange a ticket for a toy train ride. Meals are wholesome and prepared with love by the resident cook, who appears after every meal to see if the guests liked the food. '

'Exceptionally beautiful property and lovely staff and service . Only the last 5 km of the approach road is in a really bad condition . '
