I stayed at the Darjeeling Tourist Lodge for 3 days in May 2013. The location of this place is great - next to the Darjeeling Gymkhana, and quite near to the Raj Bhavan and the Shrubbery. the Mall road begins only a few hundred feet away from the lodge. The old tiny English St. Andrew's Church faces the lodge and... More

This is the second time i put up at this lodge. Rooms are excellent with views of Kanchanga from your window (if u are lucky to get a good clear sky). The put down of this place is the very poor service at your room. Though the people attending you are very courteous but low staffing makes it very difficult... More

Just visited Darjeeling and enjoyed 4 nights stay in the Tourist Lodge. Excellent location, good food and satisfactory service. It's really beyond my expectation from a W.B.Tourism managed property. It's just beside Gymkhana Club and just 5 minutes walk from Mall. By walk you can see Mahakal Mandir ( 5 minutes upward), Governors House , Nightingale Park , Zoo and... More

Hi, me and my huby and another couple friends visited Darj on 11th Apr 2013. After lot of deliberation I booked 2 rooms (104 & 105) in the annex building of DTL (Darjeeling Tourist Lodge) since we did not get any vacancy in the main building. It was far better than we heard and assumed. The wooden floored rooms are... More

I went with my family (Wife & 10 yr old daughter) to stay for 4 nights in this property. The location of the property is one of the best in Darjeeling. If one is staying in the main building, especially in the rooms at the left hand side, you can actually touch Kanchenjunga ( if the weather permits). And the... More

We have just returned from a 3-night trip at the Darjeeling Tourist Lodge. The location is nice, the rooms are big & spacious and the food,( at least the standard Bengali fare) is tasty, if limited (if you're looking for other cuisines, Glenary's is the place). The problem is with the callous attitude of the staff. We had bookings for... More
