Our first impression of Dekeling Resort was that of a British Palace! The view of the valley is fantastic! However, the overall experience was just about average. I will list a couple of main reasons (Some are in control of the resort authorities and some are not): 1. With due to respect to the old couple living there to help... More

Let me start by saying that Darjeeling is a filthy and overcrowded town. It had traffic jams that were certainly worse than Bangalore! We stopped here for 2 nights en route to Sikkim and wish we had avoided the town. The hotel is a short 15 min walk from the mall, but the last 200 meters to the resort is... More

We had booked this hotel based on the website content. When we reached Darjeeling by taxi, this hotel confused with Dekeling hotel which is on the mall road. We had a tough time searching the place as no taxi driver knew the place. Finally we found the place and the taxis refused to drop us till the hotel reception as... More

Beware of Dekeling Resort & Hotels. They did good search engine optimization. So whenever anyone search hotels in Darjeeling it comes in search list. We also get trapped by the same way.We booked the hotel online booking by transferring Rs 3000/- on a/c of by NEFT as per web site instruction on 2nd April 2012. The name Dekeling Resort and... More

The Dekeling Resort is associated with the Dekeling Hotel which is located just off of the South end of the Mall in Darjeeling. The Resort is about a 10-15 minute walk South and up the hillside from there. We stayed at the Resort and enjoyed it quite a bit. The staff is small with just the owner/manager, the cook, and...

The owners of this nice quiet hotel are the most welcoming and gracious throughout your stay. I liked them so much that I gave them all my heavy clothing as I was departing for the South and there was no need to carry sweaters and coats. They were so thankful that they gave me a charm that keeps you safe... More

I stayed at the Dekeling Resort for 3 nights in November 2010. We stayed in one of the upper floor rooms, which had a nice view over Darjeeling. The resort is in an old colonial house, and it has lots of character, but it could do with a little work. The nights were very chilly in Darjeeling when we were... More
