Delo Tourist Lodge - Lodge in Kalimpong - Kalimpong, India

It is a nice place to spend two days. In the daytime the place remains crowded with the day visitors but after 5 pm the entire garden is all yours. We even heard the jacklals at night. Beautiful sunrise from the balcony of our room. It is a bit troublesome to book that place but it's a real value for money.

Very few had pointed out the dark sides only. 1. The charges, they are taking are too high compared to the facilities 2. Very poor maintenance 3. The pillows are reused several times, covered with dirt and hairs....try to bring your own pillow cover 4. The quilt/comforter is beyond use 5. Bathrooms dont have any ventilation.......foul smell fills your bedroom every time 6. Damp and dirty bathrooms, snails are poping out from the damaged door. 7. Shortage of water supply 8. Food quality is very poor.......dining tables are full of flies 9. Inadequate staffs...probably you hardly find any one after evening 10. Transparent glass above main door ......easily accessible.......compromise safety, security and privacy. In a word.....has to improve a lot to maintain the expectations.

Its a one time experience place. One day stay here is worth every penny. The location is so beautiful, greenary everywhere on top of the hills. Paragliding option is there outside the lodge premises. There you have other activities like horse riding, costumes for rent, etc. If you stay for oneday, don't forget to visit the viewpoint at night time. Its just mesmerizing. Starry sky above and sparkling lights of human habitation below. If you are lucky enough, you can see KANCHANJUNGA from the rooms or viewpoint.

Maintenance is too low. The rent they are taking is sufficient enough for better Maintenance and facilities. If you see the pillow inside the cover, probably you'll not use it. The smell from the blankets shows that those are not washed since buying. Needs urgent replacement of several items and improvement of overall service. The food (mixed vegetables) served during dinner was at least 2 days old. Its good that the daal was eatable. Also, no transport available, so their kitchen is the only choice. Delo is good to visit, but my suggestion is avoid staying in this bungalow.

Best location but very few rooms - 2500 (ground Floor) & 3500 (1st Floor) is the room rate (12% GST applicable). The view of mountain ranges from Dello is magnificent.The local Dello nursery with its huge collection of Cacti and Orchids, the Golf Course and the Kali Temple adds to the scenic beauty of Kalimpong. One should not miss the view of Tista Rangeet confluence from here. Adventure sports like paragliding can be availed here. On your itinerary if time permits then add rrafting at Chitrey which is 15 Km. from Kalimpong. Rivers Tista and Rangeet with huge flow of water attract many tourists for rafting.

I didn't went to this lodge as I can't pick my location It's beautiful place to visit as it foot hills of Himalayas we see many monasteries along the way of side by roads Vans will be available to travel this location

Property is not maintained at all. The rooms are dusty and dirty, toilet seats broken. The dining room tables are filthy, left over food is on the tables and on it they serve the guests. All in all it's a dirty place amongst a beautiful surroundings. It seems the tourists get accustomed to this place despite the filth and giving a high rating, as we went there after seeing the ratings. Very very disappointing.

Deolo Hill, located to the north-east of the town, is one of the two hills in between which the town of Kalimpong stands. From the top of this hill, tourists can enjoy beautiful views of the surrounding villages of Relli valley and Teesta River along with the town of Kalimpong. In addition, there is a park located at the summit of this hill, which is constructed for recreational purposes. The hill is also the highest point of Kalimpong town, with a height reaching up to 1,704 metre above sea level. Great place to stay at a quaint location with family and friends. Lovely view when the sky is clear and you get that Ariel view from the top. Mesmerizing view. Providing an ideal mix of value, comfort and convenience.
