We stayed in The Retreat, Darjeeling from 7.10.2011 to 11.10.2011.The hotel is situated near Governor's House 15-20 minutes walk from the taxi stand. From taxi stand porters are available for taking luggage to hotel. From the hotel room we observed magnificent view of Mt Kanchenjunga and also La bong . The room was spacious , well furnished and neat and... More

We had a terrible experience at the hotel. Dirty and unkept rooms, temperamental staff and average food. They are not prepared to manage groups and standard of service is low. The manager is a decent bloke but in totality it is not worth the money. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone at all.

Retreat @ Darjeeling is run by dedicated staff and management; and that shows. The property is clean, gardens are nicely manicured, beds, toilets overall clean (can be a bit better), The buffet that is served is pretty good - served in a clean dining hall. Sleep is very nice. And the location and views are too good.

The Retreat as the name suggests is a real COOL retreat.Some rooms offer a splendid view of Kanchendzonga.The Manager DP Sarkar is helpful and verbose.I had earlier stayed here on a business trip.The service is absolutely informal and just like at home.Rooms are cold in Jan-Feb.But heater was provided on demand.Sitting in the balconey with a glass of your favourite...

We stayed in the Retreat during 25-04-12 to 27-04-12 and our stay was really comfortable. All rooms had good ambience. Our room particularly, 432 had a very good view of Kanchenjunga which is an unforgettable experience. We had some problems with bathroom doors which could neither be closed nor opened properly. Some problem with water supply also which was promptly... More

The Almost Miss Me entrance of The Retreat is definitely not the feeling that you carry back with you when you check out of this Warm & Efficient Place, so much like your own home.The most breathtaking view of the Kanchenjanga and the valley below and the chatter of school going children on Hermitage road makes this place truly a...
