This was a one of the two hotel I stayed in Shimla, excellent service, co-operative staff, good food, good and refreshing environment , attracting beauty / scenery all around. Will always stay in my wish list. Only one point which make me re-thing is transportation, far away from public transport makes you fully dependent on hotel transport facilities. Transportation is...

Though Far from city. Good place and food is also good though limited choices are available . Needs to be improved in cleanliness. Else its a good choice in noisy city. Service is good in general. But there is no BAR. This can be good option if you have your own vehicle.

Shower head was mounted so as to provide a horizontal flow, soaking the towels. No heating in rooms despite night time temperatures of 4º. WiFi free to use but only... More
