Hotel Elgin

The Elgin is a luxury heritage hotel in Darjeeling nestled at the lap of greenery around and finished with wooden floors and aesthetically designed interiors. Keeping in mind the ambience of the place, the walls are decked with etchings of G.Douglas, lithographs of Daniell, period Burma teak furniture, oak floorboards and paneling, crackling fireplaces, candle-lit tables and strains of music from the grand piano.

You will realize the meaning of palpable ‘old world charm' which has played host to dignitaries like the US Ambassador and the Crown Prince of Sikkim to Dominique Lapierre and Mark Tully. The hotel has stories to tell from the time of its first owner the Maharaja of Cooch Behar to Nancy Oakley in the 1950s.
