In 1867 the foundation of the present building of the Indian Museum was thus laid on the finest site of Chowringhee in front of small Cause Court. In 1875, the present Museum building on Chowringhee, designed by W. L. Grandville was completed. From 1814 to 1878 the museum was at the Asiatic Society of Park Street, Kolkata. After the completion of the construction of the new building at Chowringhee Road, the Society Museum was shifted from the Asiatic Society to the present building and it was thrown open to the public with two galleries on 1 April 1878. The Archaeology gallery and bird gallery of the Zoological Section had been declared open to public in the present building. #heritagebuildings #kolkata #Hometown](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/792/0789f9f5-9bd9-429c-b59c-1f8b0e187e45.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Indian Museum 5 min walk \- 0.3 miles - Sudder Street 2 min walk \- 0.1 miles - U.S. Consulate General Kolkata 18 min walk \- 1.0 mile ### Getting around - Kolkata Eden Gardens Station 4 min drive - Park Street Station 8 min walk - Kolkata (CCU-Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Intl.) 49 min drive ### Restaurants - Kasturi Restaurant 5 min walk - Pizza Hut 6 min walk - Mancherji's 4 min walk - Elgin Fairlawn 1 min walk - Raj's Spanish Cafe 3 min walk ## About this property ### The Elgin Fairlawn Kolkata Upscale hotel near New Market At The Elgin Fairlawn Kolkata, you can look forward to a garden, a library and laundry facilities.

Fantastic location too. Walking distance to new market, park street, Eden gardens etc. ##### ARUP Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Manfred 29 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful heritage hotel, well preserved, excellent and very helpful staff and you will get his for a very fair price.

Our room was a bit quirky: it opened directly onto the dining room, and there was no partition between the shower and the rest of the bathroom. ##### Alan Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Victor 20 Jan 2024 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The Fairlawn is an oasis in a busy part of Kolkata. Great service and amazing breakfast. ##### Victor Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Soura 16 Jul 2024 A charming place where you step back in time. Warm, hospitable staff. ##### Soura Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### RORY 17 Jul 2024 Liked: Room comfort The reception staff were helpful and friendly. The dining room staff were excellent. Couldn't ask for better. Good value for money and agood location. ##### RORY Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JR 31 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This a great place to stay that is in the Victorian era mode. I hope the basic decorum and vibe of the place never changes. It is a throw back to another era and all of the pictures from earlier times in Kolkata and the hotel and news clips are very interesting. Yes there maybe some pealing paint (which to me is part of the charm) but there is a touch of class throughout - e.g. white table cloths, real crystal wine glasses, antique furniture. The staff is well trained and eager to please. The breakfast that was included provided a nice array of choices that were well prepared. ##### JR Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Janice 7 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great atmosphere of old world charm.

Hotel was convenient for Eden Gardens cricket ground a good 20 min walk away but flat, despite England getting spanked there by 7 wickets it was great experience all the same 😉 The hotel has great history with lots of pictorial items on display, the guests list who have resided there is very interesting. If and when I’m back in Kolkata I’ll definitely stay here again. Great friendly and helpful staff too which is always good ☺️ ![Hotel guests ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/C967E770309FBB80F9843CF95CF8B9531896E48A1737617586738.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2E4482391B2262AE610E134397FD63A9DCA3186C1737617588301.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Eden Gardens ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E5C41FE6446662971A46F493B9300E7910EA32081737617622811.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Easy Target ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/14869A72459C38064179D727AE0BE6A43281D0191737617619951.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### ROBERT Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven 15 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place Elgin Fairlawn is a beautiful historical landmark 1786\. The staff are so friendly professional and polite. We eat at the restaurant every night that we stayed at the hotel. All of the food was very tasty and delicious, exceptionally the Chicken Manchow and Chicken hot and sour soup. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DC6C1E256CC0D26BDF2FF03FBD7FAAB86A2A67291707998275245.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/09899E90AFC8F0B29248E91A5A15745D9A48345F1707998275528.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/94177FEB28AD557986D5E6A830B89840ABE0EFBF1707998275154.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Steven Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 18 Jan 2025 We like the size and old feel of the bedroom but bathroom could use an upgrade. Neither of us wanted to use the shower Good breakfast. Friendly all around ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Camilla 2 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### a hotel with tons of charcter very cozy and unique characteristic hotel feels like you back in time, the staff are very warm, feels like a home away form home . However would update some of the rooms, a new coat of paint would do alot. the old style and charcter should remain, this is truley unique!! i will be back for sure and would recommend the place! ##### Camilla Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Christopher 8 Nov 2024 Liked: Staff & service A very historic property with old world charm and facilities. Our room had an unusable shower over a deep bath. Many of the ceilings and walls show signs of decay, but it is an 1783 property! The main common facilities (dining room and garden cafe area) are well kept and very atmospheric. The food was excellent and the staff are very lovely. We would stay again, but ensure we were allocated a room with a wlk in shower next time. The Fairlawn is not for everybody, but if you love history and authenticity, you can't go past it for an experience. ##### Christopher Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Rajiv 5 Dec 2024 Liked: Staff & service Positives: 1) Brought back nostalgia from he days of the British Raj 2) Excellent service people 3) Great kitchen - amazing food. Very friendly and helpful staff Areas for improvement: 1) Building is old - over a 100 years old and shows its age. So do the fixtures - chandeliers, lights, carpets, staircase 2) Not very easy to find - as it is located in a very congested area. Lots of one of one way streets 3) ##### Rajiv ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn 20 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A very charming and lovely hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Reception arranged a walking tour for us which was excellent. The rooms are clean and a good size with vintage furniture both in the bedrooms and in the main areas. The air con is very efficient. We loved sitting on the first floor outside terrace. We ate in the outside restaurant both nights that we stayed, as it was a very pleasant environment with good reasonable food. Very good coffee and cakes. When we stayed they didn't have a liquor license which was a pity but we understand they hope to have one shortly as they have applied. ##### Kathryn ### 10/10 Excellent #### Guy 5 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Intriguing time capsule from colonial era Initially given room on ground floor without windows in bedroom, and only a frosted glass window in the bathroom. Not happy with room, were given a room upstairs which was much better. Vintage plumbing but fully functional, furniture all somewhat dated but everything clean. Fascinating faded colonial charm about establishment, interesting period photos on walls of lounge. Excellent buffet breakfast, helpful and friendly waiting staff. ##### Guy Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Madhav 17 Feb 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Yes.
