It is nice hotel in good location. The only problem with this hotel is that you need to go down to get taxi. There are lot of steps to climb if you have to go early in the morning as the lift will be operational after 8:00 AM. The service is good, and the staff are friendly

I'll not stay at this hotel again.
Compared to the rate (20,800INR for 3 nights), the quality of service was much behind of ven India Standard. 1. Room was very chilly but nothing from reception even though I asked to do some things. 2. Staff are working like government officials. 3. Do not respect any hospitality. They work like a machine.
I think from the top manager to the staffs on the floor don't know how to catch up the needs of guest.
Avoid this hotel.

Wifi was not working. TV channels were not working consistently. No urgency by hotel staff to fix the problem.

We had a very nice stay here, relaxing. Staff were ok, rooms good. Food ok. They do need to sort out the wifi, and maybe give more detail on what to use and how to use things in the room. But I would stay here again.
Well placed for the Mall and Monkey temple.

Ridiculous hotel for stay.
Only location is good and adjoining Simla cafe is excellent.
Service is bad and food quality below average.
Not at all a value for money.
Good for travelers who want to stay on the mall and ready to compromise on everything else in terms of hotel.

Hotel was under construction so noisy and dusty. Restaurant (temporary) was dark and un inviting. I'm sure the new one will be good.

overall it was a good stay. Repair\renovation was going which was creating noise

The staff were friendly, the rate was reasonable and there was a lovely atmosphere in the hotel that wasn't present at the more expensive hotel just down the road. The spa facilities were wonderful and the food in the cafe was fantastic (one meal was enough for two to share). The only slight thing was that the internet kept not being available but when you go to a place like Shimla then you may want to disconnect for a while and enjoy the timeless, tranquil quality of the place. Will definitely go back.
