Review 2:The view was wonderful, the staff very considerate, warm and helpful. Very family oriented. Very very kind.
Review 3:When we arrived at Sinclairs, the whole place was stinking with sewage taken out from the sewage cover on the front of the hotel. The whole approach to the hotel was muddy with sewage water. We had a broken spirit to start our vacation.
Review 4:The staff were very polite and provided a good service with a smile. Breakfast was delicious. Rooms were clean.
Review 5:had limited choice of food and beverages, even though it is a star property but they did not have 24/7 coffee shop, rooms are smalls and dint even had basic toiletry amenities
Review 6:The hotel is situated close to the mall road and is within 5 minutes walking distance
Review 7:due to poor information from reception desk regarding local festival and closure of most sight seeing spots we had to stay idle & remain confined in hotel room.
Review 8:clean rooms/toilets and smiling staff
Review 9:i had booked a premier room with special request of getting a decent room with a view first room alloted was having a view of a rusted hut second room shown after spaeking was a bit better finally uponmy requesting again was alloted a room with partial view of rusted hut and partial view of town initially i was given to understand that the same room finally alloted to me was under maintenenace hence cant be given but on my saying that the room is good and no maitenance is needed they said it is booked for someone else which again i countered stating i have made booking early finally i was alloted the room as if doing a big favour
Review 10:the location of the property is great walkable distance to the centre of darjeeling
Review 11:Menu for food could have a little more variety. The location, though, was ok; it does not offer a good view of the mountains.
Review 12:Very amiable staff-excellent service. Excellent facilities.
Review 13:Our driver (we had hired a car for our entire stay--did not know how to smile! Wished he would.
Review 14:Great value for money. Went there with family and everyone came back with very pleasant memories, including our eight year old grandson who loved the snow clad Kanchenjunga mountains viewed from our room. The food was great and the staff very cordial and helpful, always enthusiastic and willing to help. Loved every minute of our stay there--would recommend the Sinclairs Hotel property to everyone visiting Darjeeling.
Review 15:Everything, specially the staffs and their behaviour is hopeless food quality is very poor only one lady staff in the restaurant was very helpful
Review 16:Nothing
Review 17:The breakfast is included in the room rent and there is a big rush. Thefood is good but they are under staffed. Of course they try to serve allbut are stretched in their effort. This is to tell the management tohave that area better organised because I heard a lot of complaints fromthe guests but the existing staff are doing their best and this is notmeant to criticize them.The chef is very good.
Review 18:Very conveniently located. Has a great view if you stay on the top floorwith a mountain view. The staff and the manager Mr Roopam in particularis very interested in making your stay excellent. The front desk isquite efficient and so are the housekeeping staff.
Review 19:Pramod at reception excellent, the gm Rupam Ghosh is perfect for his joband looks after every guest as if they are the only residents, andofcourse Sonam the chef whose South Indian food is a fluent as hismastery over Tamil. Generally great experiences.

Review 22:Very small rooms. Unprofessional and non smiling reception staff.no body wish or care or guide to customers.Games area with very old and broken equipment.
Review 23:Nice food and restaurants staff.good housekeeping.
Review 24:The steep badly potholed 100 metre entrance ramp is accessible to some 4WD vehicles but otherwise needs to accessed by foot. This can be a problem at night because it is dark and often wet.
Review 25:Helpful friendly staff. Free Wi-Fi when booked through Booking.com. Comfortable room and good facilities. In-hotel dining good. The hotel is popular with family groups, and has a recreation room as well as a function room.

Review 30:The access rode to the hotel is very difficult to walk (climb actually) but again its not the Hotel's fault.
Review 31:Everything. A to Z. The staff's are very cordial. The breakfast spread is really good They had arranged for an additional booking for us very swiftly.
Review 32:The little slope up is poorly lit so an flash light will be handy at night.
Review 33:The staff is very friendly and always there to help. Had great paratha and aloo for breakfast. The location is great, easy to get to town center but situated quietly uphill.
Review 34:Pathetic hotel they have gap on their wooden ceiling. We saw somebody was snooping us in our private moments that's disgusting I called the security and he also admits there is fare amount of Gap which is directly pointing towards our bed. The gap was made intensionally, I have made a complaint to sinclair group, I went their to spent some quality time with my wife this is what we got, I dont recommend this hotel to anyone even I will request booking.com to remove this hotel from their list bec. I don't know sinclair I trust booking.com that Why I went to sinclair at the end of the day booking.com lost credibility, kindly request remove this hotel from your list,

Review 40:The Breakfast buffet spread was good , also the room service menu was good. I was staying in the 2nd floor and the flush was not working in the room and the hotel took 2 days to fix the flush
Review 41:Small room and bathroom. Approach is very narrow and steep. Difficult for kids and elderly to walk to hotel. Breakfast can be improved. Staff was very helpful, except for one who sits at tge reception mostly during evenings till night. His attitude was almost opposite compared to the other staff. He should be trained ( incidently the corporate trainer was also present during our stay) in hospitality basics.

Review 74:Neat & Clean Room especially Bathroom. Leisure activities for children like having a shot at Billiards Table or do some brisk walking at the Treadmill. Fabulous food especially at Dinner. Good spread during morning breakfast.
Review 75:I thought service at reception was a wee bit slow....if you book in advance, ask for a room with a view, some of the rooms provide vistas on concrete buildings under construction or less pittoresque walls..
Review 76:I liked the location, you can't get any nearer to city centre and still have a fantastic view (that is, providing the clouds are not there); the hotel manager is an extremlyfothcoming person who will help you with everything ...Mind you, the climb up the road to the hotel is not for the physically challenged...
Review 77:This hotel requires serious make over. The floors are broken, windows are loose hence cold breeze keeps coming into the rooms, strange smoke all around in the corridors and strange pest control smell in the rooms
Review 78:Polite and supportive staff, location.
Review 79:There was no one to take up the luggage. There is no 24 hours room service. The bed linen was dirty. The room rates are not worth it. It's better to stay in other places closer to the Mall Road. Not at all value for money. Not at all recommended.
Review 80:Nothing, would not stay at Sinclairs Darjeeling again.
Review 81:Nothing, would not stay there ever again, it was not clean and the staff did not seem to know generally how to run a hotel with the exceptions of the manager and one or two people in the kitchen.
Review 82:Connecting road is very steep and no parking facility by hotel
Review 83:View from hotel is excellent
Review 84:No free wifi even though its advertised as that.
Review 85:The sparsely equipped gym.
