Sadly, I'm no longer surprised when Indian members leave out some vital info.

See if you can guess what that vital info may be?

Hint, try reading the post from the point of view of the person trying to help you.

Dear Abhishek,

First of all, please use full name of the places and not the Station Codes like NJP on Indiamike. Not all people understand them.

Now coming to your question. Both New Jalpaiguri and Siliguri are kind of twin cities, they are just 8 KMs away from each other.

You can stay in Hotel Holydon or Baidyanath at New Jalpaiguri Railway Station. Both are basic hotels.

Yes ! They are at a walking distance from the Rly. Station.

Contact no. of Hotel Holydon is 0353-2691162/335. An AC room shuld cost you around Rs. 750/-

However, I must tell you that these are not swish hotels that you might be thinking for your honeymoon trip.

hi Avishek
you can also stay at hotel Heritage or hotel Manila ....both they are good hotels but not quite expensive.and just opposite the bus stand and beside SNT stand in Siliguri ....you can easily take an auto rickshaw (which cost you around 60 rupees) to reach the rail station ....it hardly takes about 20/25 mins....

Yet you have people wasting their time giving you details of budget hotels because you didn't mention your budget.

2-3 heavy luggage + honeymoon = get an auto.

Or at least advise your wife on the most efficient way to carry 3 heavy cases.
