The stay was quite luxurious with a great view from the hotel room, ours was a semi-deluxe one and the hotel room was spacious It would have been good if it had an attached balcony. The staff was welcoming and polite. The washroom floors were very slippery, risky for older guests. Also they should provide a heater in the room as the temperature gets very low in Darjeeling. They do not provide AC so should provide a heater. Overall the stay was very good. If I visit Darjeeling again I would pick Istana resort as my Stay!

services are good reception and restaurant is good but rooms and washrooms are very poor and not what it is shown we need to ask everything like a hair dryer and I think it is not worth the money

Hotel Istana Spa and Resort in Darjeeling is a luxurious haven, offering spacious rooms with breathtaking balcony views of the valley and mountains that truly captivate. The Sagar restaurant delighted us with its delicious breakfast buffet and exceptional vegetarian options, while the housekeeping staff, especially Anita and Anima, were incredibly polite and attentive, ensuring our stay was comfortable. The charming portico was perfect for evening high tea, and the rare convenience of parking space made exploring Darjeeling hassle-free. This hotel exceeded all expectations and is a must-stay for anyone seeking a perfect blend of comfort, beauty, and top-notch service!
