A painstakingly yet meticulously executed restoration project has seen this once-dilapidated building come alive as the city's most stylish B&B. The charming rooms (full marks for interior decor) are endowed with diverse motifs typical to Kolkata's architecture, such as marble floor tiles engraved with family names, or found objects repurposed into fittings, like lampshades made of giant loudspeaker cones.
The property is managed by leading walking-tour agency Calcutta Walks, and bookings can often be combined with walking tours and other excursions offered by the management.
