Classic Guesthouse is highly recommended. Quiet,good views,clean, very helpful and friendly staff. I cannot praise them enough. It really is a home from home. My husband arrived at guesthouse unwell and remained there for 10 days to regain his strength. He was looked after extremely well - hot drinks, hot water bottles and a very good doctor. By the time... More

My husband and I stayed for 3 nights in the left upper room of Classic Guesthouse (room D). It was a big and rustic room, with a small balcony that fits 2 chairs. The views from the balcony are amazing; it's even worth watching the sunrise at 5.45 a.m. The bathroom was basic and clean. Classic Guesthouse is situated in... More

A friend and I booked two rooms at the Classic Guest House based on the reviews here. I am sure glad we found it because we were both impressed. The location is perfect, two steps from the mall and all the restaurants, and with a beautiful view from your windows and balcony. Very quiet too as it is not on... More

Very spacious rooms and with nice balcony view (if not foggy out). Because of the rains or such, the room had a damp smell about it. Bathroom was basic clean but not spotless. Management was very nice and they have a lot of books and info as such. Good wi-fi, but if you plan to use late at night, remember... More

Having endured the mild torture of having to spend a night in Siliguri due to the strike we arrived at this perfect little oasis in Darjeeling. We had a massive triple room which cost us 1600 Rps per night including breakfast. This seemed a bit above our budget at the time but let me tell you, it was worth every... More

One of the best places to stay in Darj. The guest house is nice, cozy, quiet and comfortable. Nice views of the valley below. Can be reached directly from the main bus stand / railway station by car up to the church on the VIP road. CGH is 7-8 minutes walk from there. It's close to the Mall and most... More

This place deserves its high ratings on trip advisor and the many lovely comments in the book guests are asked to sign. Most of the other reviews mention the friendly staff, GREAT location, and balcony views. The hot water bottles never fail to pleasantly surprise as well. Tea three times a day in your room for very cheap (a lovely... More

Very kind and helpful staff, an extremely nice proprietor, cosy, nicely decorated, clean and big rooms (room B is almost like a suite, part-devided into sleeping and sitting room), very quiet (no cars allowed on either sides of the hotel), good beds, balcony with great view and most important in the hills: electricity and hot water 24hs, without any disturbing...

The rooms face east--important because Darjeeling's main sunshine hours are morning. And the balcony faces the same direction. The hotel is on the quiet side of the town. You hear children playing at the schools, but not a lot of traffic noise (in contrast to most of India). The water heater is large enough to give you a full hot... More
