Shimla hotels & accommodations

Nice rooms, clean restrooms, but very far from Shimla Mall road. If you have your own car, its recommended to stay here. If not, keep a separate budget for hiring cabs & transportation. Picture given on the website looks very enticing, don't be taken away by looks Overall OK property.

What a super cool place amidst one of the most quite places of Shimla. Unlike other properties which are surrounded with other properties nearby, this hotel has a private mountain and is located in one of the best places. Loved the hospitality, location, rooms, food and what not. Highly recommended.

Excellent staff. Right from the check in till the check out, everyone was so welcoming. At the reception, restaurants, house keeping, every one was smiling. A special thanks to the travel desk for arranging our tour from Shimla-Manali-Delhi. The driver (Bunty) was very expert. He guided us very well. Very honestly. It was our first stay with Club Mahindra and the exp...

this is probably one of the best looking hotel in Shimla with good location in the heart of the hill, staffs are friendly and rooms are nice and clean. Free wi-fi all the time with multiple accounts for 2 guests. Buffet Breakfast and Dinner have great menu to choose from. Value for money.

The hotel is well located in Mall Rd and only requires a short walk from the High Court carpark or a ride up the Tourist Lift. The rooms are spacious and while aging are generally in an ok state. The bed linen probably needs retiring. A great view from our balcony . The gym needs a good clean ☹️ Staff are very helpful and friendly . The restaurant serves great food; w...

Our stay at Galleu Hill resort was overall pleasant as we drove from Delhi over the long weekend. Pros : the rooms are mountain facing and in middle of serene surroundings. The location of resort is fine and connect to Chail, Narkanda and local sight seeing around Kufri-Fagu road. Cons: The rooms are not clean and have low ceilings. we had a tough time after finding a ...

Excellent and relaxed. The hotel is something 23 km away from the shimla bus station. If I was aware of this distance I would have not booked this hotel. You need to spend Rs 850/- to reach the hotel from the shimla station. This hotel is in Shilong Bagh one should be very very sure, especially when you are tired reach your destination and then you realise your hot...

A nice hotel. Convenient location in the heart of Shimla (and close to the palace and the temple of Hanuman). The staff is very polite. There is hot water. Clean. Fish and a beautiful garden. Wi-fi works great. Thank you very much. Be careful! Next to the hotel travel agency Great Himalayan Travels works there fraudster Sachin. Go to the hotel this agency has nothing ...

After a nightmare journey, we arrived at 12 am. They moved us to a larger room in the morning as I had accidentally booked for 2 instead of 4. There was no fuss at all! Breakfast was good, the views tremendous! The only thing I can complain about is the bar - they had run out of pretty much everything apart from wine which was rather expensive. We didn't eat an evenin...

The location of the hotel was very nice as it is very accessible and easy to find. its easy to get in to the city and out of the city from the hotel. easy to get around the sites in Shimla as well. The view in the morning from the hotel room was breath-taking. A good location with a great view and great accessibility. Recommended for sure.

I visited shimla for the first time. We chose this property as it is far from the crowd of shimla. Oaktree house is a beautiful property, decorated in a very classy and sophisticated manner, with a personal attention given to its every corner. The food is good, staff is excellent and the service is at par. The owner, Mr. Anil Walia is a fantastic host and a very warm ...

Everything clean and tidy. Location was near mall road but after a steep hike. Parking only for cars not for bigger vehicle. I did not try buffet so cant say much. Ordered fried rice and it was tasty. Only few rooms have open view. I stayed in room#306. It does not have good view. Door key hole is not covered, curtains dont fold completely, taps etc are a bit clumsy....

Very nice place to stay. Excellent staff and very professional service provided. Food is tasty and awesome. Service provided by Rajesh Chauhan and bharadwaj is excellent. Ambience is also very good, clean rooms. Though room size is small very neatly maintained. Location. Wise it is little bit inside.

Everything was just perfect! Definitely a place to stay, if you are in or around Shimla/Mashobra. Expect serenity, calmness, privacy, right in the lap of nature, perfectly located, Summit Thistle is just the best you could get. All the rooms have a beautiful balcony view and rooms are designed just perfect.

We absolutely love this hotel! We happened to visit the hotel during Christmas and they have arranged for a Christmas Dinner with fun and games for all the guests. Our room was in the palace wing, an excellent choice! There was even a fireplace in the room to keep us warm at night. The hotel was a former Maharaja residence and there were portraits of the previous owne...

All was good except that the Hotel didn't receive the Booking Confirmation and Payment on time from your end. And I've to make too many efforts for the same. Second, Why you don't have a call center no. of India, I've have to make International call to contact with you.

Its a newly built property ,with a great location . Just 15~20 Kms from Shimla. One can spend time in the resort and also take a single day trip to Shimla. Leisure activities in the resort are good , though they should increase the no of activities . They need to make it more economical , but clean place , good staff and good food makes the overall experience a memora...

Stayed for 3 days in June second week in 2019 with family - wife and 2 kids-6 Yrs and 2 Yrs. Weather was cool and comfortable with rains in 2 of the 3 days. Room,furniture is large sized with large windows but basic, bathroom is big and clean. View from the room is great and is across the Taj hotel. Restaurant layout is decent but had flies all time so i preferred roo...

Booked hotel from the Agoda.... The actual tariff for the room is not more than INR 1800 + Taxes but paid more than 3K to Agoda. Food was fine but staff was more helpful. Location is also non-traceable for the first timers. I called up hotel and they send HK to escort me to hotel. Request you all to skip the option of staying and even if you want to stay in a budget h...

The guesthouse is small but in a cosy. Very good situated just between te main road andere the fantastic lower bazaar and with an amazing view from the roof terras. The contact with the host(owner), was very pleasant and friendly service beyond expextation. It soon felt like home and I decided tot stay another night.

we stay at this hotel on date 30-6-2012,the location was good,the manager and staff was good and very helpful,room was clean and big as well as bathroom was very clean...resturant was clean and food was good in quality and feel like home food.hotel was some what 2.5km away from chail but it dosent matter because all hotels are on same road, sunset was amazing to see,ov...

We went there in a group of 3 families, and enjoyed a lot. It felt almost like a second home. We had 3 rooms in one floor and the central common sitting area served as our living area. The view was beautiful and the staff were very accomodating. Thank you for a great experience.

road travel to shimla is always a fine one. what you would expect is the hotel to not fudge on the room type as soon as you check in. the bed linen was dirty and although the hotel changed it, they weren't ready to accept that it wasn't clean. the room size was super small even though it was a super deluxe, but cozy. service of the staff was prompt, but not necessarily...

We stayed at Vadaan home stay for 1 night during our trip in Shimla. Even though the location is quite far from town around 12 km. but the view through window and terrace is worth as well as the staff which is family is very friendly and helpful. They helped us for arranged the day trip with a reasonable price and recommended us a good hotel in town for our 2nd night. ...

I would not repeat it. Apart from the grime ended up with an upset tummy. Since there were no pleasant walks or anything to do within the 'resort' had to call for cabs all the time. while the view from the window was nice, the place is a mere 10 or 15 ft from the main highway, so the noise of traffic was a constant not a tranquil experience. lack of any amenities leave...

aapo aap was wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. my husband and i have visited india regularly over the last 25yrs and nothing has ever come close to this truly delightful homestay. everything exceeded our expectations. it’s an exceptional place to stay. shivi and his family are absolutely charming; they make you feel really welcome from the moment you arrive at the...

This hotel is good for bag packers. Room prices on internet were higher than that being offered at hotel reception. I would suggest to call hotel and check prices before booking via internet. Hotel rooms were small but clean. Some rooms had good outside view and some had wall outside the window. This hotel is 5 Kms away from Mall road, parking is a real problem if you...

Everything from the rooms to the service was really good. But I had paid for the breakfast and they did not provide that and hence I was overcharged. It is 14 kms from Shimla. During day, it takes around 1-2 hours to reach Shimla depending upon the traffic. It is a quite hotel on the highway. The food tastes above average. The owner is humble and a nice person but a bi...

Pros : Beautiful location with scenic views from the rooms. Great hospitality and prompt service...We travelled in a group of two families ..Special thnx to Mr Avinash who coordinated my stay ,accomodated my request for postponement of dates of booking and gave a good room with a wonderful scenic view.. The kids activity room and playground is a plus if u r travelling ...

Giving review for another property of the same owner, I have booked for Sitapur village resort and when I called for booking confirmation I came to know that there was some electrical issue going on at the resort and the customer support provided me accommodation to their mall road property. I wanted to be at peaceful and not much crowded place but eventually my kids h...

I was a little worried at first because after I had booked, i was asked to prepay (but not given any method to do so). But everything was fine once I got there. The room was very clean and had a nice view. The bathroom was great, very good hot water. WiFi worked most of the time as well. Location is 20 min walk from mall, close to train station as well. Overall I high...

The hotel is decently well located. Just a 100 meters walk from the High Court. The place was not classy but that is justified by the price. A good place to crash in the night. We only ordered Tea and it was nice. There was only negative point. We booked for 8 but we were 7. He smartly counted us as 7 and told us that he has only one family room(2 double beds) and this...

The hotel is located away in a good solitary location away from the hustle and bustle of the crowded touristy areas of Kufri. Staff was very courteous even though the water lines were frozen due to extreme cold, they did their best to arrange for alternatives and made our stay comfortable

Staying in snow Valley shimla was a wonderful experience, it's at distance of 4 to 5 kms from city lift. So choose staying here if you have full time car available with you, parking is another issue here, food was expensive too. But apart from all this stay was wonderful. They have nice property, rooms were very clean, hospitality was above benchmark, breakfast was awe...

Real reviews for hotels
Capital of Himachal Pradesh. Wonderful city with a long history. Beautiful scenery and a hill-way of life to experience.
Stay only one full day. Move on to Kufri or Naldehra or Manali as soon as possible. Very dirty, no waste management plan in place.
Shimla is beautiful. Especially the toy train journey from kalka. When you go to kufri, unfortunately it is not well looked after and the locals do not take pride in its appearance.
If you like a cold place in HOT INDIA this is it.Be prepared for the time it takes to get there add at least 1/2 hour to an hour whatever time the tour guide or driver tells you.
Shimla is replete in history.The sight and sounds are interesting,the Mall is overrun by tourists who often believe they are the only people in the Mall and has a lot of people with nothing to do but stare.
One must try the toy train from Kalka to Shimla. The city has awesome landscape and mountain views however the roads are bit congested and often are of not good quality.
Quite busy & commercialized city. Its more a city than a hill station. Too much population & traffic.
Viceroy lodge is great. Bird park is rubbish. Gulub jamun is delicious there. Hire a porter if the hills are too much for you and your luggage (only about 50 rupees) taxi is 150 minimum.
few places we liked, mall road is main attraction, tara devi mandir is another very good place to see, breath taking views of hills are good place for photography
it is good to avoid during summer holidays . Toy train ride is must. In fact this can be built in for one leg of journey to/from shimla.
We were quite sure we were not visiting temples and do the typically boring stuff, where you just travel in a car and reach a point, look around have a snack and go on to another site.
Overall visitng Shimla was a good experience. Good historical connection, state museum was worth watching.
A brilliant contrast to any other part of India. The cooler climate was welcome after the oppressive heat of Delhi .
