Living in Hotel Elgin can be an unforgettable vacationing experience by itself. Set aside a day from the tours to the beautiful spots in and around the town and enjoy the company of family and friends in an atmosphere of relaxation and enjoyment.
Darjeeling is known as the 'Queen of the hills'. The name derives from 'Dorji Ling', or the God of Thunder. Small wonder then, that the weather varies from the pleasant to cold, to very cold. As you enter, the heritage Hotel Elgin, warmth greets you. A silken Khada is draped around your neck in a traditional North-east welcome, as sparkling cherry liquor spreads a Warm glow within. The phrase 'old world charm' is a palpable feeling of being sung and cozy in this quaint and charming 120 year old residence reminiscent of the heydays of the Raj. There is a lived-in look about the oldest hotel in Darjeeling. It is justified, considering that royalty and distinguished Heads of State have spent many moments here, appreciating the lithographs by Daniel and etchings by G.Douglass that adorn its walls. Dominique Lapierre and Mark Tully have found inspiration to write in its relaxed interiors. Hotel Elgin has hosted the Crown Prince of Sikkim Tenzing Namgyal, the royal family of Bhutan, US Ambassador Galbraith and many more renowned personalities.

Rooms
The thirty luxury rooms of this mansion are seeped in nostalgia with stories to be heard from a bygone era of the elite to days of mellow sunshine at the park or cheerful evenings at the Timber Bar.
With a glowing fireplace and hot water bags in your bed, you will find all the amenities of comfort coupled with the charming Victorian décor. Our Attic Room on the top of the mansion with sloping roofs and wooden walls is an excellent place to unwind after a particularly tiring day at the mountains.
The Elgin has extended its hospitality for over 100 years to the kind of people who know the real style of living like the Maharaja of Cooch Behar who held most of his parties in this mansion entertaining his royal guests. With cozy interiors and classical tunes from the grand piano with discreet waiters in uniforms to serve you at all hours, the ambience is perfect. Meal times bring together all the guests to the Kanchan and Orchid restaurants. The Elgin chefs can win you over with a selection of delicious local, Indian or Continental cuisine with fresh bread, cakes and pastries prepared in-house for breakfast. The Elgin also serves special high tea from the world famous tea gardens of Darjeeling at the lounge.
