Excellent choice of hotel for stay at Shimla. Though The Family Room was a bit small for a party of three adults, it was adequate for our needs. The breakfast choice and selection was plentiful and staff went beyond to cater for our needs and made our stay enjoyable. Dinner at hotel was one of the best. Food was absolutely delicious. I would definitely stay here again for our next visit.

A nice hotel, very clean and amazing views staff very friendly and helpful and could t do enough to make our stay comfortable Only issue to be aware of is the location. To get anywhere you need a taxi and even using uber you have ti wait a long time as drivers feel the hotel is too far out. A taxi to the Mall area will cost 700 rupees so you need to factor this in. It’s a good 20-39 min ride depending on traffic (took over an hour one day)
