Located at the top of the town a few minutes walk from the main square and market area, Snow Lion Homestay is a very good choice for the budget traveller in Darjeeling. It doesn't look promising as you head up Gandhi road past the stray dogs and open rubbish tip in the street (I still hate that), but it's worth... More

Snow Lion is a cold but cozy place to stay in Darjeeling. They provide space heaters (after a certain date) and many thick blankets but it's still cold in the room. Our room did have a view of the mountains, but it was cloud-covered for one of the days. It's just a short walk to the main shopping area, and... More

We stayed for 11 days. We knew that Darjeeling in the winter is cold, what we didn't know is that the hotel supplied practically useless heaters initially, and only after a big fight with the owner's son were we provided with a 1/2 decent heater. We we not told that the hotel supplies hot water bottles until after 5 days... More

My stay at the Snowlion was a good one. This is a no fuss kind of place. Everything worked (geysers, taps, lights, Tv and the remote too!). The rooms were furnished well enough. The place was clean. It is slightly uphill maybe a 100 mtrs. from the town square which was good. The best part though was that we had... More
