For a tryst with the Himalayas, the one place of its kind is Hotel Sinclairs Darjeeling. The strategically located Sinclairs offers an inspiring view of Kanchendzonga on a clear day. Memories of that will never leave you. A few minutes pleasant walk from the town square Chowrasta, the hotel invokes the charm of an old country house. If the Himalayas are the piece de resistance of Darjeeling’s legendary charm, the hill station is full of magical beauties. Experience it all by being a guest at Hotel Sinclairs Darjeeling.A throwback to the Raj-era, the hotel exudes Victorian charm. Carved fireplaces, antique furniture, chandeliers and traditional artifacts will transpose you to a time you have always wanted to experience. Cozy atmosphere and warm hospitality will have you relaxed and fulfilled. You will enjoy the pampering by our friendly hosts and the “home away from home” feeling will ensure that you are comfortable throughout your stay at the hotel.

Service is excellent- from reception desk to porters to dining hall servers, everyone was very courteous and helpful. Particularly impressed with Restaurant Manager Anil Pradhan and a special shout out to restaurant staff- Marcus, Pravesh, Smriti, Vivek and Prabhakar. Breakfast Buffet (that is included with the stay) is amazing with lots and lots of variety. The view of Kanchenjunga from our bedroom window was breathtaking. Our driver for the tour, Vikas was very pleasant and helpful. overall a great stay!

My experience for the stay was excellent. Some advice for honest feedback. May want to have a vertical room heater which reflects from the Celine but will heat uniformly the room. Bathroom shower has a missing door. At least put a curtain to prevent the splash going to the other part of the room. Lock box was licked for me. Loved the view from the 2 nd floor balcony. This is a huge + for me as I am interested in photography. Front office manager / owner was very cordial and provided good guidance for us. The food in the restaurant was very good. Apt for people with different choices. I am a tea person so was happy with my milk tea. 👍 These are just suggestions and does not in any way reflect the quality of service🙂

We went to Darjeeling for 3 days. As mesmerizing was Darjeeling, choosing Sinclairs was a great decision. Wonderful hotel with very reasonable pricing. And special nlmention to the staff, Anil, Pravesh, Yogen. They never stopped smiling. Right from check-in they all were very warm, welcoming and hospitable. We really enjoyed our stay in Sinclairs, as much as we enjoyed the beautiful hill town of Darjeeling.
