    If the weather was good, it looked like I could see the good view from the room of Swastika, but I could not see clearly even the closest hill because it was too hazy. I heard from local people many times it is very hazy in April. Anyway it's not...

    The view from the homestay was very nice. But one thing if we get a larger room with a balcony that would be good for us.

Every day u grow!! This year we grew in 2023 by introducing the 1st ever International Youth Hostel along with the existing Homestay in Kurseong. International Youth Hostel Kurseong, a part of SWASTIKA Homestay and Travels, offers a unique experience where people from diverse backgrounds come together to connect, share thoughts, and foster global unity. The hostel provides affordable stays with bed charges based on size. Amenities include a dining room, verandah, 24*7 hot and cold running & Aquaguard Safe Drinking water, and 3 Western & 1 Indian commode type toilets and baths. It offers 6 rooms with a capacity of 16 people varying from 2 to 4 or 6 pax room wise, catering to both families and backpackers. It is one of the 1st of its kind in Kurseong as it is the chicken neck to Darjeeling, Mirik and South West Sikkim. # We shall extend this chain in many new places in few years.
- The host is passionate about serving and sharing her dishes with guests, creating a welcoming and warm atmosphere. - She actively involves guests in local tours, providing guidance and assistance to hikers and those in need of help. - Pioneering the concept, she was the first to open a homestay in Ward No 5 Kurseong Bazar. - Additionally, she holds the distinction of being the first to open an International Youth Hostel in Kurseong.
Quite neighborhood and the locality has many historical places nearby and it is the centric zone for all the sight seeing points.
