Windamere Hotel
Darjeeling
A historic hotel on Observatory Hill, with a colonial feel and views of the mountains.
Darjeeling climbs a ridge in the Himalayan foothills, with tea gardens spilling down the slopes and Kanchenjunga on the horizon on clear mornings. Its stays include colonial bungalows on working tea estates, old British clubs and a former maharaja's summer palace.
Where to stay
The heritage hotels in town have the atmosphere of the Raj, while the tea estates outside give silence, walks among the pickers and tastings. Plan on a night or two out of town.
Good to know
Spring and autumn offer the clearest views. The toy train is a slow ride, so take it for the experience rather than speed.
