Sinclairs Retreat Kalimpong
6th Mile, Purbong Busty, Kalimpong, ~1,250m

- City Luxury
Sinclairs Retreat sits at Kalimpong's 6th Mile, about 3.5km out from the town centre, across roughly two hectares of landscaped grounds — a bigger, more resort-built footprint than the heritage mansions Kalimpong is better known for. Where a property like Elgin Silver Oaks trades on colonial-era character and skips air conditioning altogether, Sinclairs runs a genuine spa, an indoor pool and a gym, still the exception rather than the rule at this altitude. The Golden Oak restaurant covers Bengali, North and South Indian and Chinese menus across three sittings a day. Five room categories run from the compact 284 sq ft Wooden Cottage up to the 900 sq ft Premier Suite with two bathrooms, most with private balconies over the grounds or hills beyond. Kalimpong, at around 1,250m, is drier and less touristed than Darjeeling — a market town with old trade-route character rather than a hill-station strip. Good for families or travellers wanting hotel-standard facilities in a town that mostly doesn't offer them; wrong for anyone chasing the single-building intimacy of Kalimpong's older heritage houses.

Rooms & suites
Wooden Cottage
The entry category at 284 sq ft, one king bed and hill or garden views; standalone cottage-style construction rather than a room in the main block.
Premier Room with Balcony
416 sq ft with a king or two single beds and a private balcony, mid-tier comfort in the main building.
Premier Plus Room with Balcony
460 sq ft, facing the flower gardens rather than the wider hills, a quieter aspect than the valley-facing categories, with the same private balcony as the standard Premier room.
Premier Attic Room with Balcony
524 sq ft with two king beds under an angled attic roofline, among the larger standard categories, suited to two couples or a small family sharing.
Premier Suite with Balcony
The top category at 900 sq ft, one king bed, two bathrooms and a separate sitting area, the property's most spacious option.
