Every inch of this 115-year-old colonial mansion has been lovingly refurbished to recreate a space that transports guests through Kolkata’s layered past. The seven rooms, each named after a colour signifying the spirit and ethos of the city, are done up tastefully with wooden antique furniture, vintage maps and photographs of iconic landmarks and everyday life. There are plenty of nooks that invite you to sit back, relax and savour the City of Joy’s bewitching character.
