Hi Amir, I had the pleasure of visiting Darjeeling last year in May. As I am a college student, I know exactly what you need if you are planning for a budget trip. We stayed at a hotel called the ‘Golden Leaf’ which was at a walking distance from the main mall road. It was for 1700 INR per day. We
Book a Oyo room. It will be pocket friendly. Visit Batasia loop, Tenzing rock, zoological park, tea gardens. Book a can from the market u will get it cheaper. Bargain as much as u can. Enjoy train ride. 3 days will be more in Darjeeling.
Suggestive itinerary : Day1 NJP to Darjeeling (3.5hrs), afternoon - roaming around Mall, coffee at Keventer's Day2 Darjeeling - Tiger Hill, Ghoom Monastery, Ropeway ride, Peace Pagoda, Zoo, HMI, Tea Garden. Day3 Toy train ride - Darjeeling-Kurseong-Darjeeling, shopping Revolver is a budget hotel, you need to walk uphill to reach the mall. May try Hotel Broadway, Sailung, Sunflower etc, those are close to the mall. Buy tea from Nathmull's, they have a shop on the mall and other places of Darjeeling.
