The Heritage Club – Tripura Castle
Cleve Colony, near Lady Hydari Park, Shillong
- Heritage
- City Luxury
- Honeymoon
Shillong was the summer retreat of choice for several princely families during the colonial period, and this Assam-type timber structure was built as the Tripura royal family's residence here, a short walk from Lady Hydari Park. It's been run as a heritage hotel for years now, with rooms named for the family it once housed — Maharani, Tagore, Maharaja and Royal suites sit alongside plainer Deluxe and Supreme rooms. The Stable Bar occupies the site of the former horse stables, original stonework intact, and the Glass House restaurant is enclosed enough to work through Shillong's frequent rain. This is a small, personality-driven property rather than a full-service five-star: the appeal is the building and its history, not scale. It suits travellers who want a genuine heritage stay in town, with a spa and banquet hall for anyone combining a visit with a small event, over guests chasing resort-style amenities.
