"Sinclair's is an older, well-maintained, and attractive property, with beautiful views of Kanchenjunga. The street leading up to it is steep, and then are stairs leading up to the hotel and more to the rooms (no lift), so you need to be all right with that. (We're over 70 and had no problem.) The staff is lovely and go out of their way to help you. I'd single out Bragya--I hope I have her name right--for exceptional service, helping us find a taxi to Bagdogra at a heavily touristed festival...

"It was an amazing experience.. The hotel is a very good location near the mall road. The hotel staff is very friendly and cooperative. It is very decently designed but the only issue we had was the mattress there. Otherwise really good property for the price we paid. highly recommended"

"Mountain mist is a beautiful homestay experience with comfort conveniences and the authenticity of small village Himalayan life. The family team have recently expanded into hosting more foreign tourists.
You can be one of the pioneer guests We were collected in a modern 4x4 and served variety of local cuisine in six days.

"It's a nice hotel. Staff are friendly and helpful. The mountain view room with balcony is spacious. However, the restaurant serves pure vegetarian food, no eggs are offered for breakfast."

It is an excellent place to stay if you are not looking for a classical style "Hotel". It has a very warm and ready-to-please Staff - only 8 of them to manage all ten rooms. It is a heritage Property with all the quaintness and old-world charm in terms of the building and furnishings etc. It has a feeling of a large Homestay with very personalised Service.
Recently renovated and therefore still needs some "De-bugging"
I would recommend it if you are looking for a warm and stay

This property was quiet, clean, and had amazing views. We had a peaceful quality time at the property. The staff was amazing and very helpful. Whenever we will come back to Darjaleen this will be our home.

Charming hotel with excellent and attentive staff, situated within a stones throw from Darjeeling's mall.
Rooms are well equipped and even during the bitter winter, they are kept comfortable by providing in room heaters and hot water bottles arrive along with the turn down service.

The property location has not satisfied me. Although the distance from mal is not much but it is not walkable. Even stairs are not there to visit mal or market by walk.

Ranjit was welcoming and helpful without pressure. He helped us arrive meeting taxi and carried luggage to leave. Any questions were quickly answered on WhatsApp. The internet is very fast the TV is good for raining days and the view spectacular when clouds lift. 300 inr is a generous fare from station for luggage a short walk has cafes and little shops. Darjeeling is a hill town walking down from here is easy coming back needs a taxi as all hotels do. Not expensive so good value for money.

Wonderful, relaxing stay with extra interest in learning about the growing and processing of tea. Delicious food, freshly prepared onsite. Staff friendly and helpful. Room and bed comfortable and clean. Really enjoyed the visit to the tea factory and walk around the estate.
Make sure you book the airport transfer - price is reasonable and difficult to find for people who don't know.
