Glenburn Tea Estate
A working tea garden turned boutique retreat, Glenburn offers just a handful of rooms across two colonial-era bungalows overlooking the Rangeet River valley and the peaks of Kanchenjunga. Days here revolve around plantation walks, tea tastings and unhurried mountain views rather than a conventional hotel itinerary.

A Taj Safaris lodge styled after a traditional Baiga tribal village, set deep in sal forest beside one of India's best tiger-spotting reserves. Twelve secluded cottages and expert naturalist-led safaris define the stay.

Shaded by deodar and sal trees on the banks of the Kosi river, this resort serves as a comfortable base for jeep safaris into Jim Corbett, India's oldest national park, in search of tigers and elephants.
