We were a group of eight adults and three kids which stayed at Dekeling hotel. The best thing about the hotel is the location. It is right on the main road and easy access to the mall road and various restaurants. The only drawback was that our rooms were facing the wall so we did not have a good view,... More

I stayed at Dekeling Hotel, Darjeeling from 28th April, 2012 to 1st May, 2012 with my wife and my two and half years old son. We booked the super deluxe timber room over the internet. We appreciated the room which was allotted to us. Though the room was not mountain facing, it was a huge room and very aesthetically decorated.... More

Everything about staying here was a pleasure. From being loaned the right cash to pay our taxi driver when we arrived through the personal send off when we left 4 days later. We had a great view from our room which spacious, comfy and had a bathroom with plenty of hot water. The lounge was fantastically comfortable and we almost... More

We spent six nights in March and found the positive Trip Advisor reviews were right on. The hotel has a great location just off the Mall with nearby restaurants and shopping. Everything is within easy walking distance. We booked a mountain view room and I'm sure the views would have been good too, but it was cloudy and foggy the... More

We spent Christmas here and after the hustle and bustle of the rest of India it was a real treat to be somewhere so cosy, calm and atmospheric. The building has amazing views of the nearby peaks. The woodburner in the lounge is perfect in the evenings. The owner is wonderful and you get a taste of Tibet waking to... More

We arrived to a hail storm and an electricity outage but the Dekeling was a cozy retreat from the chaos outside. The staff were extremely nice and the rooms clean. The bathroom wasn't spotless and it was very cold on our floor but the faux fur blankets helped. Don't miss the upstairs lounge-its nice and warm and covered in prayer... More

Dekeling hotel was very nice. The staff were excellent and very accomodating. Would recommend. My only advice would be to choose a room away from the main street. In Darjeeling the cars honk their horns consistently from 4:30am to 9pm. After 9pm the dogs wake up and start barking. I would recommend skipping the mountain view room - there are... More

We booked a couple of nights here as we wanted to be sure we had somewhere comfortable to come back to after our 7 day Singalila trek and many of the budget options in town would not take reservations. It was a great option, the staff are friendly and helpful, there is an excellent laundry service (we had a MASSIVE... More

We opted for the hotel based on the reviews available on trip advisor. I must say it was well worth it. The best thing about the hotel is that it is centrally located you have all the great resturants such as Kunga, Glenary, Keventer's near by. The staff was very good and the service was excellent. The only problem is... More
