My experience at the hotel was quite disappointing. The location offered a beautiful view, but the service and cleanliness left much to be desired. The room was lackluster, and the dining options were average at best. While the staff tried to be helpful, their efforts were often hindered by poor management and inadequate facilities, making this stay less than ideal.

I recently stayed at this resort for a couple of nights, drawn in by the beautiful views. While the location is breathtaking, the room I was initially given was quite far from the main building and uncomfortably cold. The dining options were almost adequate, but could use some improvement as well. Overall, I found the experience to have its ups and downs, but the stunning surroundings made some of the drawbacks more bearable.

For my recent weekend trip to a resort in Darjeeling, I enjoyed the spectacular views of Kanchenjunga and the serene environment away from the crowded Mall road. While the rooms were well-maintained, I did face some challenges with dampness in a couple of rooms. The staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating, but the dining options were quite limited. Overall, it was a peaceful stay with stunning views, but some improvements could enhance the experience.

I had a great stay at this resort in Ghum, which provided stunning views of Kanchenjunga. The location felt a bit secluded from the busy Darjeeling city, but that added to the charm for me. Although the service from the staff was truly exceptional, the dining options could use more variety. Overall, the experience was relaxing, but the road leading to the resort was quite narrow and could be daunting, especially at night.
