History

Mayfair Hill Resort Darjeeling has a rich and elegant legacy that dates back to the British colonial era. Although the hotel opened its doors to the public in 1997, the hotel traces its origins to the 1900s, where it was the summer house of Raja Prithi Chand Lal Chaudhuri of Nazargunj. Perched on top of Darjeeling's cool hills, it served as a seasonal retreat during the warmer days. The colonial-style mansion quickly became a symbol of old-world luxury and aristocratic life in the Himalayas.

Later on, the property was acquired by the Mayfair Group of Hotels, a leading hospitality group in Eastern India. Today, Mayfair Hill Resort Darjeeling stands as a beautifully preserved tribute to its storied past. It continues to be a favorite vacation destination for its architecture, hospitality, and panoramic views.

Design and Architecture

Mayfair Hill Resort Darjeeling is a perfect example of colonial-era elegance. From the outside, the property stands out with its soft yellow walls, sloping green roofs, and stately gables, reflecting the classic British hill-station architecture. Surrounded by manicured gardens, cobbled pathways, and lush foliage, it offers panoramic views of the mountain.

As you step inside, the interiors transport you to a different era. The décor features rich wooden paneling, polished teak floors, antique furniture, and warm lighting that creates an inviting, intimate atmosphere. Fireplaces adorn the lobby, guest rooms, and common areas, adding both warmth and authenticity. The walls are adorned with black-and-white photographs of old Darjeeling, vintage maps, and portraits that tell the story of the region’s royal and colonial past.

Its 53 rooms feature Victorian architecture with large beds, wooden accents, and walls adorned with paintings. Some rooms also come with an attic-style sloped ceiling and windows that open into charming verandas. Although located on a hilly terrain, Mayfair Hill Resort Darjeeling has facilities for guests with limited mobility.

Rooms are characterized by antique decor and wooden accents Agoda
