Would like to stay again
Pros:

We were 4 couples, had 4 rooms 4 nights, with friends. First thing that you experience is the wonderful team of staff, right from front desk to F&B, housekeeping, all were courteous, helpful, went out of way to see we were happy. Food was great, we had about 5 meals (besides breakfast), it is priced reasonably, service attentive, they customised dishes as per our liking. Breakfast spread was good, they also prepared and served items which were not in buffet. Heating was comfortable. Would like to stay at same property when we go to shimla again!

Nothing

Here is a clean, combined summary of both reviews in one: Combined Review: The property was clean, and the staff were h
Pros:

The property was clean, and the staff were helpful. The dine-in options were tasty and reasonably priced. The room had all the necessary amenities, and the heating worked well. The hotel also accommodated my late checkout request.

Cons:

Food delivery personnel were not permitted in the reception area, which caused a bit of inconvenience, but overall it was manageable. There are also no nearby places within walking distance to explore.
