Goomtee Tea Estate and Retreat

The Goomtee Tea Retreat is located inside one of Darjeeling's most serene tea gardens and offers an atmosphere of peace, seclusion and natural beauty.

It is not a spa or a fancy hotel but a simple and authentic place to enjoy the soothing ambience and glorious tea. Excellent international vegetarian cuisine (including egg items) and minimalism are on offer here. The silence and serenity may not be for everyone but it is certainly for those who are looking for a peaceful and lazy retreat away from all the hustle-bustle of urban life.

If one is looking for quaint and old-style rooms and a kind of a throwback to another time (along with the fresh teas at the tea factory) Goomtee is an amazing place to take it all in. The brilliant flower garden, the reading room with its unique collection of books on a variety of subjects, the long hikes, the waterfalls and the drives to scenic spots all come together to create an experience as enjoyable as Goomtee's teas.

Goomtee is special because it doesn't try to be what it isn't; it is an old property - very clean, simple and unique, with an emphasis on nature, its teas, service, food and character rather than modern luxury which can be found in every semi-urban location.
