Darjeeling - Introduction and Geography - Darjeeling is a premier colonial era hill station in East India at 2-3 hour drive from Bagdogra Airport and known for its Himalayan views (Oct-Mar) and tea plantations enroute. Darjeeling is also visited for the experience of the Heritage Railway.

Darjeeling - Accommodation, areas and its Character - Darjeeling like almost every colonial era hill station, is now a crowded town. Though Darjeeling is packed with tourists during peak summer and Puja/Deewali vacation season, it still is a favorite with corporates for regional conferences and meets during regular season (Jan-March and July-Sept) especially for weekends. There are a number of hotels and resorts that can serve from mid-segment to luxury category.

Availability Scenario: Good accommodation options are limited and weekends almost certainly go full. Therefore its advisable to plan in advance. April-June and Oct-Nov are peak and therefore availability is an issue during this period for a group.
