The Postcard Hotel announces the opening of its latest hotel in the North-Eastern region of India, The Postcard in the Durrung Tea Estate, Assam. Nestled in the tranquil tea gardens of Assam, the boutique hotel is spread across 1400 acres of sprawling tea plantations, offering one of the world’s finest teas, along with endless discoveries immersed in nature, regional cuisine, guided destination trails, and more.
Guests can choose to stay in the meticulously restored Planters’ Bungalow, a relic of colonial elegance, or in the contemporary Luxury Chalets nestled amidst the tea gardens. While the Planters’ Bungalow captures the grandeur of a bygone era, the Luxury Chalets seamlessly blend modern luxury with the serene beauty of the natural surroundings.

Beyond the tea estate, the hotel offers a gateway to some of Assam’s most iconic experiences. Guests can explore the wilderness of Kaziranga National Park, home to the endangered one-horned rhinoceros, or immerse themselves in the spectacular beauty of Nameri National Park, a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers. Adventurous souls can enjoy activities such as rafting on the Jia Bhoroli River, while cultural enthusiasts can visit Pakke, a vibrant locale showcasing Assam’s artisanal crafts and traditions.
The culinary offerings at The Postcard in the Durrung Tea Estate pay homage to Assam’s diverse cultural heritage. The menu is inspired by the culinary traditions of the Singpho and Ahom tribes, featuring authentic dishes crafted with locally sourced ingredients. Guests can indulge in flavors that reflect the region’s rich history and culinary innovation, from hearty tribal recipes to delicacies infused with Assam’s signature herbs and spices.
