I'm sure they will answer emails. Their service is outstanding all round. Because all rooms face inwards into an atrium type layout you may want to avoid the ground floor - your door will open directly into the bar/public area. We stayed one night in a standard room on the 2nd floor.. It was very nice and not small. It faced the street and was a tiny bit noisy in the morning. The next two nights we had a huge suite with views down the valley. If it's a special trip I would suggest asking Cox and Kings if they can get you an upgrade at a decent rate? The hotel is outstanding, especially the service and Shimla is beautiful. If you're doing the Toy train ask Cox and Kings to get you the best seats if they haven't already. The basic seats are very uncomfortable. Enjoy!

Stayed at the Oberoi, a beautiful hotel but I think more suitable for adults. The Wildflower is possibly a better idea if you have children. More outdoor areas available there.
