The hospitality is excellent. The staff are polite and cooperative and make you feel at home. The food was delicious. Infact every item we ordered was very tasty. Hats off to the chef. Well managed and clean property. The GM of the resort has a wonderful personality as well as kind helpful too. Will definitely visit again and recommend this place to others. We actually came here because some of our friends suggested this hotel.

Overall a nice experience. The property is excellent, large and spacious. Loved the large attic room we were given although it was the corner most room (at the farthest corner of the property) and the view was not that great from the room. In spite of asking a few times, the front office refused to change even though I was sure all the rooms were not booked. They could have done in the 2nd day also. But nobody cared. This is not expected out of a good resort/hotel of this category. The most critical aspect to improve for the management is the a-la-carte food options. Although breakfast was awesome, for lunch and dinner, they had a rather thin menu. Not many options and so for foodies like me and my wife, it was disappointing. They had local food in the menu but for those, they needed 24 hours prior intimation! And clearly, the food items were mostly vegetarian. Very few options for non-veg items. Non-vegetarians may stay away from this resort, I felt. Secondly, their concierge service is at the best average. You only get cars for half-day or full day sightseeing only, preferably full day. The drivers take you to 'spots' and are rather reluctant if you want to venture anywhere outside these pre-defined 'spots'. So ridiculous. Suppose if you want a cab to drop you at the market and pick you up while returning, then you will get a clear-cut negative response. Extremely silly in fact. But anyways, overall, the experience was nice because of the room and the property.

Thank you for your review. The USP of our property is the green and serene surroundings that create a haven for guests seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of city life. We have all the rooms facing hills and moreover all the premier Attic rooms aresituated on the top floor of each wing and offers the best view. Please do inform us about your next visit, so that we can allot the best view room. We will definitely work on widening the choice of dishes in the restaurant menu. The travel desk is outsourced and we have briefed them of your feedback. We do hope you will give us a chance to be of service to you again and promise you a great experience in your next stay.

Well presented property with large rooms. Could be a bit cleaner but this seems to be the case with most india properties where fine points are missed. Like most corners are never cleaned. There is alwas black mould at the grout

The hotel rooms are comfortable, staff is friendly, overall quality is nice. It's a bit away from the main town. Food is average.

Amidst nature

Posted 6 May 2018
Hotel is located about 12-13 kms from Kalimpong market. The landscape and view from the hotel is breathtaking. Beautiful places nearby are Deolo and Darjeeling. Activities like river rafting and paragliding are something you may like to do while you are staying at Sinclairs. Gangtok is however very far from the hotel. It took us almost 4 hours one way. If your plan is to cover Nathula and Tsogmo lake, then you have to stay somewhere nearby Gantok. Can’t do a day trip from Sinclairs Kalimpong.
