My stay at Elgin Silver Oaks in Kalimpong was absolutely magical! The hotel is nestled among stunning hills, offering breathtaking views that were hard to leave behind. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, making it a true haven. The dining experience was delightful, with a fantastic variety of dishes served. Although I initially wished for more time here, the overall experience was unforgettable and well worth the journey.

The hotel has a stunning colonial charm that truly impressed me, especially the elegant decor and huge rooms. However, the dining experience left much to be desired with limited options and some inconsistencies. The lack of support for travelers was also a drawback, making it feel less accommodating for tourists. Overall, while it's a beautiful place to stay, there are several areas for improvement that kept it from being exceptional.

Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience! The heritage charm truly took me back in time, and I loved lounging in the garden while sipping evening tea with stunning views. The service felt warm and welcoming, though the food could use some improvement. Overall, the hotel boasts a unique ambience but at a price that feels a bit high for the value of dining options provided.
