Hotel Kalika-Mall Road

Never ever stay at this hotel. The entire review ratings were manipulated with all possible ways. Let me explain.We stayed two days, booked three rooms, but took only two rooms as one team member could not join. No refund as all paid. No rejection allowed as you have to py all advanced. No upgrade as they have all rooms same.The entrance is pathetic (not a big issue)The room is full of damp at roof as well as floor. The lights are kept dim and yellowish that it may take few minutes to understand the wet floors.No room in entire hotel has open side windows. The wall of next building is hardly 1 or 2 feet. No air Flow for all rooms.To minimise smell of damp , once you open the window, mosquitoes will come (yes, hundreds of those, in Darjeeling). And they have no ready mosquito repellent (although arranged at late night). Next day we had to buy our own repellent and used strong Deo to minimise the smell all over day and night periodically.The service people are okay type. The entire environment is so dull and cheap that cant think to stay with family. Your kids will get sick in a day.Now the final story, when you will checkout, they will offer few discounts on food bill and ask to give good reviews. I believe most of tourists fallen in this trap and must have opted that one and this shitty hotel god 4.5+ rating. It is probably the worse hotel you will see at Darjeeling.Just to mention, the location is good (5/8 min walk to mall road with very little uphill), the roof of the hotel is bit good to spend time with friends.We have roamed various parts of country and can understand price vs quality ratio, but never experienced such horrible surprise. Gods grace, family and kids were not there.

A very good hotel to stay with friends and family. 5 to 10 mins walking to mall road. Well maintained room with a neat and clean bathroom. Manager Mr Chandan Sinha is a gentle person and very helpful. The service of all staffs was fast and very good. Food quality is also good . we enjoyed the stay.

good location , stayed with my family (2 senior citizens) , no problem in accessing the hotel or walking to chowrasta(mall). 5 to 6 mins walking distance from hotel to chowrasta. Food quality is good , hotel staff is helpful.
