The stay was really great, and the view was amazing as well. Whenever I called, he was always helpful and available to assist. The food was surprisingly affordable—items like Maggi and coffee were much cheaper compared to other places, and the quality was excellent too. The washrooms were clean, the lighting was good, and there were no electricity issues. He even arranged an Activa scooter right at the doorstep, complete with a full tank of petrol and a helmet. One suggestion for future guests: inform him and take his advice before heading out to visit any places. His recommendations are very helpful and can make your trip even better.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Bidur's homestay during my visit to Darjeeling. The room was clean, comfortable, and offered beautiful mountain views that made it the perfect place to unwind after long days of exploring the town and surrounding areas. Bidur was an exceptional host who went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. He was incredibly kind and helpful, assisting me with local travel arrangements and sharing fascinating stories about Darjeeling's rich history and famous tea gardens. He even took the time to show me around nearby places personally, which added so much depth and meaning to my experience. The breakfast was amazing every single day - a highlight I looked forward to each morning! The location strikes a perfect balance - peaceful and serene, yet well-connected to town, making it easy to explore while having a tranquil place to return to. As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe and well taken care of throughout my stay. I would highly recommend Bidur's homestay to anyone looking for a warm, genuine, and comfortable experience in Darjeeling. This is hospitality at its finest!

I recently stayed at Family Homestay in Darjeeling, and it turned out to be one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality from Mr. Bidur and his wife, who run the place like it’s their own home — because it truly is. They go out of their way to make guests feel comfortable, whether it’s through a friendly chat, offering local tips, or serving delicious home-cooked meals with a personal touch. The food deserves a special mention — every meal was freshly prepared, flavorful, and felt like I was eating at home. The care and love they put into every dish is unmatched. You can tell they truly enjoy hosting guests and making sure everyone is happy and well-fed. The rooms were spotless, cozy, and well-maintained, offering beautiful views of the hills. The bed was comfortable, and the amenities provided made for a very relaxed stay. The quiet, homely atmosphere made it perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. In terms of service, everything was top-notch. From timely meals to helping with travel arrangements or recommendations for local attractions, Bidur and his wife made sure every detail was taken care of. Their warm, genuine approach makes this place very different from typical hotels — you instantly feel part of the family. Considering the comfort, quality of food, cleanliness, and the exceptional hospitality, I’d say Family Homestay offers excellent value for money. It’s ideal for anyone looking for an authentic Darjeeling experience, away from the commercial buzz but close enough to easily explore the main spots. Highly recommended for families, couples, or solo travelers who value comfort, personal connection, and the feeling of truly being at home while on vacation. I’ll definitely be returning on my next visit to Darjeeling! Cheers Bidur bhai 🥂

Bidur and his family were sweet and friendly. They helped us wherever needed. His wife's food was delicious and family oriented. I felt like eating at home and breakfast was amazing. The location is little offbeat but it's good I can say. He's also a good musician🤩😊

this was such a lovely place to stay whilst visiting darjeeling. the home is located on a quiet street but only a 10 min walk to town! Bidur and his family welcomed us into their home & we immediately felt part of the family. His wife cooked us delicious meals, whilst Bidur was always helpful with providing us with information, being our guide, and organising activities for us. if you’re visiting this area, you must stay here!

This was the best homestay experience I ever had. Bidur bhai and bhabhi(bidur bhai's wife) is one of the best host. I had an accident near toy rail tracks here, Bidur bhai helped me with medicines and everything else. I highly recommend people to visit this homestay. Apart, from this the service was top-notch. Food was served warmed, delicious and served on time.
