깅 티 하우스(Ging Tea House)

Staying at the Ging Tea House in Darjeeling was an absolute delight! Nestled amidst the serene hills, the ambiance was both tranquil and rejuvenating. The charming place exuded warmth and hospitality, making us feel right at home.The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and their personalized service was truly commendable. Our stay here was nothing short of magical, leaving us with cherished memories to last a lifetime.

It's very nice property. Great hospitality. Very courteous staff, clean rooms, great view and awesome food. Overall an excellent experience. Must stay at this property. No complains about it. A very homely feel with great luxury on offer.

It was the best holiday I have ever had. Hospitality was great. Food was so homely. U name it and they will serve you. The staff were superb and very friendly. The ***agement is too good. Loved the view , the gazebo , rooms. It was like a home for 3 days in the midst of the hills. Dinners laid out for three days was fantastic.

This is an excellent property. The tranquility just washes away any stress you may have had. Add to that the absolutely courteous staff who make it a worthwhile experience. Special mention about the outstanding cuisine to suit any palate. I would highly recommend it. Loved the stay.

This is such a charming get-away in the quiet hills above Darjeeling. My daughter (age 12) and I loved strolling through the plantation tea plants, but also just sitting on the terrace overlooking the hills and sipping the local tea. The food was outstandingly good. The first lunch was a bit spicy for us (chilis) and we mentioned it and then every meal after was perfect, with wonderful variety. We enjoyed snooker, board games (after some time trying to sort out all the games that had become mixed together), and even the historic piano (although somewhat out of tune). Our room was so comfortable with a delightful reading nook looking out over the terrace. The factory tour was very interesting and it was a pleasant walk down there. We heard that when the weather is good, one can see the peaks of the Himalayas on the border with Nepal.

We stayed at the Ging Tea House last weekend and had wonderful, peaceful, luxurious stay with amazing food! We were picked up right on time by Mr. Ramesh who is fantastic at navigating the narrow, jaw dropping windy road from Bagdora airport to the tea house! It is a 3.5 hour drive and he made suggestions to where we could stop for lunch and tea and stopped at a wonderful cafe half way up. After going through the very noisy, traffic filled roads in Darjeeling, the Tea house was an oasis of peace, calm and beauty. What made is exceptional is the service - all the staff including Prima, Device, Nakesh (sorry for the spelling) and all the others including the Chef are so warm and hospitable. We we treated with tea and snacks as soon as we arrived. Everything was taken care of including all transport to visit the unique Darjeeling toy steam train (don't miss this!) and a wonderful tour and walk to the nearby temple with Nakesh. We were invited to join the ceremony in the temple and have some tea with the people who lived in the village which made is very special. Nakesh gave us lots of information about life on the plantation and we had a great time discussing the issues facing the villagers. The Tea House has several beautifully decorated rooms - we stayed in the Blue Lady suite which was large, with a very comfortable bed (not the norm in most places we have been to!) and lots of pillows with a window seat facing the sunrise in the morning. The bathroom is very large and there is lots of warm water. Be warned - there is no central heating and it gets quite cold in the evenings. The staff started a fire in the dining room so that we were warm while we had dinner. We also had a fire in our room which was roaring in a few hours but also makes the room very smokey as there is no flue...but having an electric blanked turned on when we slipped into bed was pure luxury!! Thank you to all the staff :) My only recommendation is that the staff could relax and be a bit more chill and not worry so much about pleasing the guests - I think most people enjoy the banter with the local staff and would really appreciate hearing their stories of village life - so please feel free to chat with the guests and not just serve them!

Had the greatest time at Ging tea house. Beautiful property with a very welcoming and helpful staff. Hats off to the chef for serving delectable meals of varied cuisines. Loved the peace and quiet and the view from the place. Would definitely visit again :)

Our experience at Ging tea estate was unique. This property was built in 1864- well refurbished and maintained keeping the character! Our experience was made special by the staff- Andrews ( ***ager), Nikesh, Prema , Anju, Rajat ( chef) and other members. Every tea break was with premium first flush from this tea estate ***** with freshly made cookies and cakes! Lunch and dinner were three course meals with so much variety! The tour to tea factory by Nikesh was simply eye opener. We hiked through the estate and Nikesh was our guide to local life in tea estate! We visited the primary school, temples and churches, mingled with local people. On our way back we have been lucky to see Kanchanjanga! We had visited other parts of the region and the experience was really fabulous. This is expensive and I wish, the very people making the experience outstanding, should have right co****sation! We booked ours through Travel Bagicha who attended to minute details of our need!

This property was quiet, clean, and had amazing views. We had a peaceful quality time at the property. The staff was amazing and very helpful. Whenever we will come back to Darjaleen this will be our home.
