Summit Hotels & Resorts signs two properties in Siliguri & Darjeeling

The Siliguri property is expected to open on 15 August, while the Darjeeling project is scheduled to open in early January 2027.

Summit Hotels & Resorts has announced the signing of two new boutique properties in North Bengal, further strengthening its presence across the Darjeeling and Siliguri region. The hospitality group has signed Summit Gulma River Resort in Siliguri and Summit Falling Water near Darjeeling, both 30-room boutique properties positioned around nature-led experiences and intimate hospitality formats. 

Summit Gulma River Resort will feature a mix of standard and studio-style rooms with kitchenettes suited for extended stays. The property will also include an in-house restaurant, bar, spa, gym and a banquet hall with capacity for approximately 150 guests. Summit Falling Water will offer 30 rooms with private balconies overlooking the stream and surrounding hills.

"North Bengal continues to be one of the most compelling tourism regions in Eastern India, with demand driven by leisure travellers, weddings and the growing popularity of experiential hill destinations. With Summit Gulma River Resort in Siliguri and Summit Falling Water near Darjeeling, we are focusing on boutique properties that are deeply connected to their surroundings. Whether it is tea garden landscapes in the plains or a stream flowing through a hill property with views of the toy train, our aim is to create stays where the destination itself becomes the central experience for travellers," Sumit Mitruka, Founder of Summit Hotels & Resorts commented.
