Family Vacation gone wrong.

Posted 3 Oct 2023 on Hotels
The hotel’s approach is soo steep, we had to think twice before heading out each time. They should offer complimentary shuttle service at least. Not recommended for elderly travelers. The food was not that great for the price they are charging. Overall the trip will be more exhausting if one decides to put up at this property. There is no parking available at the property so if you call for a taxi, you have to be ready at the gate at the precise time so that you can board the car and leave as it is a one way narrow street. If one wants to visit the mall road frequently, suggest you stay at a different property. The kitchen closes at 9:30PM which is not practical at all (I dont know about the other hotels as this was my trip to Darjeeling). The room phone was not working and even after complaining on all 3 days, it want changed/repaired and I had to climb 3 floors down to the reception to talk to house keeping. Lastly, there is no lift in this hotel and if you are allocated a room on the 3rd floor, you literally have to climb up 5 floors (from the road it is 2 floors to the reception which is termed as ground floor).

The property itself is well maintained and have excellent support stuff. Offers good variety of breakfast items in buffet format and a selection of both veg and non-veg items for lunch and dinner, if one opts for those. The approach to the hotel is a steep incline and then some more steps to climb, which needs to be factored in while selecting a place to stay in Darjeeling. Location wise, the main mall area is a 15-20 minutes walk on inclines.

Dear Sir, Thank you for your review. We are indeed happy that you enjoyed your stay with us at Sinclairs Yes, we agree that the road leading to the hotel is steep as we are on an elevated plot of land. Being perched on the top is also an advantage because you get a wonderful view of the Kanchenjunga range. We do inform our guests about the inclined approach road and the non availability of the lift at the time of booking. We look forward to welcoming you again at Darjeeling. We invite you to visit any of our seven other hotels/resorts in India at Gangtok, Siliguri, Dooars, Kalimpong, Burdwan, Ooty and Port Blair. We promise you once again of a memorable experience.
