Guest Reviews

• Reeti (5/5): Will not stay here again. - The gardens and location. There was no internet throughout our stay. They gave expired drinks and then made up for it by offering dinner. No beer. Food was ok. We struggled with deciding what to eat. The best part were the staff. They were nice. Specifically Ritesh, Deepak and Sunil.
• John Mafuru (8/5): -
• Rishikesh (8/5): Very good -
• Joseph (9/5): Good place to retreat from the hustle and bustle of a city life. Calm Serenity. - The breakfast was excellent except when we had to check out at 7AM for the airport we asked for a breakfast as parcel that was substandard. The staff was very courteous and supportive especially of one staff Mr. Swastik who made our stay very comfortable and hospitable. The long walk to the room from reception up and down was tiring more of an exercise.
• Bhattacharjee (8/5): Very good - Receptionist named Bejoy was really helpful Amenities could have been upgraded according to chargescharged. Hospitality
• Neha (7/5): Good -
• Dhan (9/5): Overall I really enjoyed the stay with calm and peaceful ambience. Excellent ! - Breakfast/food for adult is good. However, there wasn’t a choice for the kids. The breakfast made available are mostly spicy which my kid couldn’t eat. Hence, it would have been meat on the bone if there were kid’s food/breakfast menu included. Breakfast for adult is good.

• Vandana (5/5): Passable -
• Jin (10/5): - Sinclares Resort is such a gem! The entire property is meticulously maintained and nicely decorated with beautiful landscaping. The premium room is spacious and bedding is clean and comfortable. They provide you with a heater during winter time so the room is plenty warm. The best part is the hot shower which is so much better compared to other equally expensive hotels we stayed across India. You can take a really comfortable shower without worrying about the hot water running out in the middle of the shower which happened to us in other hotels. Also, you won’t get bored just staying in the hotel because there are many things you can do, from badminton court to ping pong table, to spa service. The food is excellent and thoughtfully prepared. Needless to say the mountain view is spectacular. What’s even better than the view is the staff in the resort. From reception to restaurant, everyone greeted us with excellent services and care. They went above and beyond to make sure we were taken good care of. They truly made us feel at home. I’d like to express my appreciation to Gautam, Koushik, Swastik, Saurav, Shovan, Subrata, and Ankita for making our stay a memorable experience. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone who plan to visit Kalinpong.

Hats off to the chef. Well managed and clean property. The GM of the resort has a wonderful personality as well as kind helpful too. Will definitely visit again and recommend this place to others. We actually came here because some of our friends suggested this hotel.

• Cain (7/5): Good without being exciting - Food was good without being excelent, ` little bland at times Very poor wifi in room in cottage 2 - avoid if you need decent wifi
• Dhrubajyoti (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sandip (8/5): Very nice stay for 1 or 2 days with good ambience. - In the breakfast there should be some more options in breads, pastries, sweet dishes, salads. Location of the resort is very good. Staffs are very cordial & helpfull. The value for money. The facilities seem to be comparatively costly. The room allotted to us could have a better balcony view. Swimming pool needs to be maintained with more cleanliness.
• Bijay (10/5): excellent - the location was awesome but there should be more varieties of food items . choices in food menu like more varieties and yeah availability of drinks and food s coz most of the tandoor items were not available and even roast chicken was not available and tequila tooo
• Sharq_pie (7/5): comfortable - peaceful property, with well maintained gardens and comfortable rooms. too short a stay to notice negative things
• Praveen (4/5): Avoid - Littles things gave us the feeling that the place has been run down. Pool was dirty. TT racquets were completely worn out. Key cards were wrapped in tape.
• Sayak (10/5): Cozy and Comfortable - We had a wonderful stay at Sinclairs Retreat Kalimpong during our 01 night stay here. We booked this heritage property via booking.com and checked in to very friendly and pleasant staff at check in counter. Mr. Swastik Pradhan greeted us at the reception. He and his colleague upgraded us to Family room from the previously booked Premier Plus room. The room was huge (like a duplex) with 2 floors. We had very comfortable sleep and a wonderful view from the balcony of the mountain and the valley. We also had some nice starters at the roof top restaurant with drinks and food was really yummy. Breakfast was also tasty and overall it was a short but sweet stay. I highly recommend visiting this place if you are in Kalimpong. Thank you Sinclairs. N/A

• Kaustuve (8/5): Very good - Location and very nicely maintained hotel with great garden flowers around. View is wonderful Checkout was a bit lengthy process; in our case only one customer was in front of us, but still took half hour to finish! Not sure how this will function in a hotel busy season
• Ray (1/5): disappointing - decent property for the town but leaves a lot to be desired no wifi, far from town, no international plug/power adapter, room has a mini fridge but it’s empty, picked up the pillow and a huge ball of dust came out, no hot water in the morning so I had to take a cold shower…and the list goes on
• Arnab (10/5): awesome - everything nothing as such
• Sandip (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nivedita (4/5): not a client friendly hotel and staffs. - in booking . com the property looked ok. but actually it is 5-6 km away from the city center and very very exclusive. there were not a single boarder was there on the property. and was hardly any staff. it gives a creepy feelings. the road is extremely bad and not maintained. when family is going for the first time this kind of hotel should not be recommended. also I went there and then because there were only ladies I wanted to cancel the booking but still they charge me one days full charge. there was not a single boarder and all the rooms were empty so why did they had to charge me? I requested them so much but nobody listened. it was a very very bad experience with the staff attitude.
• Kushal (10/5): Exceptional -
• Juhi (7/5): Nice property but perhaps inconvenient for a short stay - Views from the resort and room (room with mountain view and small private garden + verandah) Size of room; shower Greenery in resort Location - too far from the Main Road area, especially for a short stay. Hotel wasn’t able to arrange a taxi for us to return from the Main Road area in the night. There’s no wifi in the room. The mattress was too soft. Even the pillows were too soft. The approach road is in a bad condition (although not sure what the hotel can do about this).
• Suman (10/5): The location, property, staff, food and services were excellent. An ideal place to chill and relax. - Excellent spread with the items being served fresh. The staff at the restaurant particularly Sourav, Somnath, Shovan, Rajesh, Sabina and others were excellent with their ever helping attitude. The chef's preparations were excellent. He was kind enough to make the food as we desired. On the front office Vijay was cordial and helpful right from the time we checked in. The house keeping staff like Sunil, Suraj, Srijana, Tara, Nisha, Kavita and others were excellent and served with a smile always on their face. Nothing in Particular
• Kaustav (9/5): Superb -
• Atindra (10/5): A of Solitaire of solitude in the Hills - Excellent facilities,and wonderful staff behaviour,food is excellent, especially the breakfast spread👌 Spa treatment is excellent,worth every penny Food is a bit on the pricey side.Having said that the food is delicious.
• Subhadeep (10/5): Exceptional - Building exteriors needs repainting.. Bathrooms does not have exhaust
• Kingshuk (8/5): Very good -
• Jaya (8/5): Good break . had a memorable stay - property is beautiful . the ambience was good . Food was ok. view was good . Staff was very friendly. approach road was bad .
• Suvodip (10/5): Great place for a leisure trip. - The atmosphere and the ambiance is excellent. Highly recommended to those who are willing to go for a true vacation. Away from crowd. Excellent place. Spend a quality time with family. The entrance road of the hotel from main road is not good.
• Shantanu (9/5): A complete retreat - The breakfast spread was too good. Bathroom facilities could have been better
• Roshan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ruth (9/5): Superb -
• Verified traveler (8/5): Nice & quiet place - Peaceful and tranquil resort. Great views of hills all around. Nice place to spend a couple of days.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Overall a nice experience. The property is excellent, large and spacious. Loved the large attic room we were given although it was the corner most room (at the farthest corner of the property) and the view was not that great from the room. In spite of asking a few times, the front office refused to change even though I was sure all the rooms were not booked. They could have done in the 2nd day also. But nobody cared. This is not expected out of a good resort/hotel of this category. The most critical aspect to improve for the management is the a-la-carte food options. Although breakfast was awesome, for lunch and dinner, they had a rather thin menu. Not many options and so for foodies like me and my wife, it was disappointing. They had local food in the menu but for those, they needed 24 hours prior intimation! And clearly, the food items were mostly vegetarian. Very few options for non-veg items. Non-vegetarians may stay away from this resort, I felt. Secondly, their concierge service is at the best average. You only get cars for half-day or full day sightseeing only, preferably full day. The drivers take you to 'spots' and are rather reluctant if you want to venture anywhere outside these pre-defined 'spots'. So ridiculous. Suppose if you want a cab to drop you at the market and pick you up while returning, then you will get a clear-cut negative response. Extremely silly in fact. But anyways, overall, the experience was nice because of the room and the property.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Well presented property with large rooms. Could be a bit cleaner but this seems to be the case with most india properties where fine points are missed. Like most corners are never cleaned. There is alwas black mould at the grout
• Saurav (8/5): Good and comfortable hotel. - The hotel rooms are comfortable, staff is friendly, overall quality is nice. It's a bit away from the main town. Food is average.
• Krishna (8/5): Amidst nature - Hotel is located about 12-13 kms from Kalimpong market. The landscape and view from the hotel is breathtaking. Beautiful places nearby are Deolo and Darjeeling. Activities like river rafting and paragliding are something you may like to do while you are staying at Sinclairs. Gangtok is however very far from the hotel. It took us almost 4 hours one way. If your plan is to cover Nathula and Tsogmo lake, then you have to stay somewhere nearby Gantok. Can’t do a day trip from Sinclairs Kalimpong.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location and facility, felt the maintenance is not done regularly. Staff was very good.
• Gaurav (10/5): Romance and Personal Time - It was excellent and comfortable.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Had a lovely experience
• Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel - Hotel is half hour journey away from the city, in an isolated area "purbong busty". Hotel per se is very comfortable and exotic, lovely ambience
