The comfort and luxury of the Old World awaits
you at the oldest hotel in Darjeeling.
Welcome to New Elgin, a world set apart for you. A world that takes you back to the elegant lifestyle of the Victorian era. A hotel set amidst green conifers where
you never lose touch with nature. A charming reminder of the days of Old British Raj when Maharajas and the nobility retreated to this high altitude haven away from the heat and dust of the plain. New Elgin is a well-preserved Victorian mansion dating back to 1885.

It still retains every bit of the ambience of its former owner’s princely lifestyle and taste: it was the Maharaja of Cooch Bihar’s home away from home in Darjeeling.

As a hotel, New Elgin has extended its hospitality to the kinds of people who know the real worth of living in style. The Maharaja held most of his parties at this mansion entertaining the royal guests in its cozy interiors with wooden paneling and floorboards, Tibetan rugs, tasteful furnishings of Burma teak, crackling log fireplaces and discreet uniformed waiters ready to serve you at all hours.

Living in New Elgin can be an unforgettable vacationing experience by itself. Set aside a day from the tours to the beautiful spots in and around the town and enjoy the company of family and friends in an atmosphere of relaxation and enjoyment.

If the thirty luxurious rooms of this mansion could speak, there would be many a story from the lives of the sophisticated elite
to be heard, many a nostalgic account of the idyllic days
in the mellow sunshine at the park or cheerful evenings
at the Timber Bar
