Valley view room very comfortable. Hotel much better than it appears from outside. Food slightly overpriced and no restaurant though.

Located at just 10min walk from the Lakkar Bazaar and 15min from the Ridge and Mall road , the hotel was away from the hustle of the Mall road and at the same time just a walk away from it. The staff was very polite and courteous. The room offered a great view of the valley. Hotel has great facilities.

This hotel is a little away from the hustle and bustle of the centre of town but is all the better for that. It was welcoming and comfortable. We booked a superior room with mountain view which was well worth it.The room rates are very reasonable. The room was very comfortable, clean and the shower was great, powerful hot and clean. Staff were pleasant and attentive and in house food was good, portions large so don’t over order! . I would highly recommend this hotel, it is a quality hotel at a very reasonable price. Would be happy if all hotels in India met this standard!

Five minutes walk from Mall Road. Met at the railway station by a (pre-ordered) taxi, so no problem finding the hotel on arrival in Shimla ;-). Breakfast (chola bhatura) just like home-cooked (delivered by room service, since no dining room) - room service rapid, friendly, efficient. Solar-heated hot water ran out in my room, my friend next door had plenty :-(, so 4 not 5 stars. Ive paid 5x as much for a worse experience!

The staff were good, room was fine. Didn't like nowhere for breakfast, served in the room. Breakfast very poor, in fact one day made me very ill, I will spare you the description. I also wouldn't book with Expedia again due to the the perpetual bombardment of emails. If I want to review somewhere, let me decide

The view and the service excellent but the wifi is so bad it should not be advertised as having it at all. The really bad Wifi mad it impossible to continue making travel plans or even emailing - it cut out so often. Hotel Kapil could be one of the best hotels in Shimla just fix your wifi.

Close to downtown and an easy walk compared to many places in the area. Great services for people unfamiliar with Shimla, including a reasonable priced car service. Very comfortable room.

This was a peculiar hotel as they didn’t provide heaters for their rooms and wanted to charge extra despite the temperature being so low due to the cold climate. Another issue was hot water, we had to keep the water running for 15-30 min just to properly wash our hands without getting frostbite. The TV service didn’t work either, despite the cable technician coming and trying to fix the service, it was of no avail.Stay away from the WiFi, they give you a new password 3 times a day which is annoying and you also have a limit of 3 devices per room. Not only that, I watched a 10 minute YouTube video and I was notified that my data limit had been reached and I had to wait for the next morning for it to reset. They’re acting as if we’re going to free load off of their “out of their world” internet with 1.0 mbps download and 0.1 mbps upload. Terrorists in caves have better internet than this.To top it off, room 104 is haunted, we actually left a night early because you would experience supernatural events like doors opening by themselves where there isn’t any wind draft with the windows all closed.Last but if not the least of this hotel’s problems, they’re cheapskates, we asked for a banana for breakfast and they declined us stating we must spend at least $10 for their fruit platter.Paying for two rooms totaling $600 for 3 nights, this is worst experience I have ever had. The staff is polite, but that’s probably because they know they’re robbing you blindly.

Stayed for 3 nights, very impressed with the room, was extremely clean and comfortable. The view from our room was amazing. Service was 5 star, staff are very freindly, nothing was too much trouble. Excellent food and Chai. Highly recommended this hotel.

Small hotel but the rooms are well equipped. A great view from room window. The center of Shimla is about a 15 mintue walk uphill via Lakkar Bazar

A pleasant small scale hotel with nice staff and service. This was March but possibly cold in winter. Blane and Gill Fitzgerald, Hobart

Kapil was very comfortable with amazing views from our room. Great service, close to shopping. we had a bit a trouble with our shower door.

Happy to recommend this hotel, staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. Room was very clean, views great. Only a 10 min walk to the Mall.

Staff helpful and polite. Bedroom had fab valley views. No resteraunt room service only food was good. Room cold could have a heater for 300 rupees.However bed had electric blanket.

Pleasant hotel. Exceptional service from staff.

A great hotel. While not very close to the central area, it is still within walking distance. Hotel also provides free car service to up the road and walk back is a breeze as its downhill. Room was not very big but was clean and comfortable. Overall a great stay in shimla. Itel staff were very friendly and accommodating and we LOVED the chicken curry.

Hotel was cold. It was also at the bottom of a steep hill and had no amenities nearby.

Not a great deal to do after the boat rides on the Ganges, theres a rooftop resteraunt on top (all veggie) and a beers approx £2 a tin 😳 but the view of the Ganges is tops 😆 but 2 nights was enough

We loved this hotel. There aren't many rooms, but be absolutely sure to pay a little extra and get a "Super Deluxe" room, like we did. The view is absolutely spectacular. I believe the cheaper rooms don't have a view. The difference in price is very little. Our room was (by our standards) huge, beautifully decorated, and the most amazing picture window. Like most hotels in Shimla, this is not in the centre of town, but the quality was obviously much higher and views far more spectacular. The in-room food offered was reasonably priced, however it was the BEST food we had anywhere during our month of travelling in India. The gentleman who attended our room was brilliant and always cheery. We happily gave him a tip (which is quite unusual for us).
