Glenburn Penthouse 

A delicate dance of culture and design

The Glenburn Penthouse is a sophisticated and elegant homestay in the heart of Kolkata (Calcutta).

Located behind the historic Army and Navy Stores building, the views over Victoria Memorial and the Maidan Park from the upper floors and rooftop infinity pool are spectacular. It took the owners nearly seven years to create Glenburn Penthouse. Everything has been hand-picked including the marble floors, chandeliers, vintage fans and the Hindustan wallpaper depicting rural life in India. The walls are adorned with collections of artwork, reflecting the era of the property.

The chef has created an eight-course tasting menu with each course sharing a story about the city. Many guests also like to explore the restaurants at nearby Park Street.

The property does a series of personalised walking tours that take you through the city. Sometimes they stop for a very elegant tea in the gardens of St. John’s Church, other times its lunch with an art collector.
