11 Monteviot: Luxury homestay overlooking a tea estate

The host was so lovely and attentive, but also gave guests their privacy and alone time - just the right balance. The food was delicious and the views were lovely. The room was cosy and comfortable with great views. I enjoyed staying in Kurseong which had a good feel and wasn't too far from the airport. A great place to stay if you don't want to stay in Darjeeling itself. The tea made in the area was delicious.

Nothing!

Staying at this homestay was one of the loveliest experiences I’ve had in the region. The place itself is spotless, comfortable, and has a perfect, calming view—but what truly makes it special are the owners, Tuhina and her husband, Uncle Tea :) From the moment I arrived, they treated me not as a guest but as part of the family. By pure coincidence, Tuhina was celebrating her 39th birthday during my stay, and they invited me and another guest to join their small celebration. Sharing cake, wine, and stories with them was an unforgettable experience—a genuine highlight of my trip. The staff are incredibly friendly and can cook (almost) absolutely anything you ask for, always with a smile. And if you have even the slightest interest in tea, speaking with Uncle Tea—who is a veteran tea planter—is an experience in itself. His knowledge is deep, his stories fascinating, and he explains everything in excellent English, which is a rare and very welcome surprise in the area. Yes, the price is a bit above the local average, but every rupee feels absolutely worth it for the hospitality, comfort, and authentic warmth you receive here. I left feeling like I was saying goodbye to family. A solid 10/10. Wholeheartedly recommended.

Breakfast was good . Meals are delicious as cooked fresh after confirming the order. It was a pleasure to be with the owner of the property Mr. Parimal Sharma Ji . We really had a nice evening best Darjeeling tea and informative discussions with Parimal Ji on various subjects especially Darjeeling Tea.

Nothing to dislike.
