The place was comendable and not just because of the location, but because of the food and the lovely staff. I went there for a break with my mother, and the staff gave us such unexpected hospitality that we enjoyed. The best part was the singer that was arranged with our dinners who sang beautiful old songs for us.

Recently we have visited to Shimla and stayed here. It was a great experience. Very well maintained posh rooms and u'll get beautiful Pine trees view in ur room as there is a big clear glass window also attached balcony so u can get real view. Bathroom was very clean. They have provided Geyser for warm water in basin and tap, soap, shampoo, clean towel, clean quilt, blanket and electric kettle too. I have mentioned clean because everything was actually clean. There is a smart TV in room.There is another living room beside ur room for lunch or dinner. Staff service boy is very hard working.The Hotel's owner Mr. Chetan is very friendly n polite. He also came many times to ask us that If we need something. Food was delicious. They manage many things as per ur wishes. Had a great experience and it made our Shimla tour memorable. Thank u Chetan bhaiya next time whenever we'll get plan about Shimla, definitely we will come to you.
