My experience at Royal Shangrila Balakot
Pros:

I loved the location. Cloud covered mountains right in front. River kunhar right at the back. Neat and clean rooms. Beautiful new furniture and decor. Good clean bathrooms. Good staff specially Umer boy. Mohsin was good too. Romaan was good as well. All of them did a good job.

Cons:

There should be a safety grill on the balcony of room 101. It's dangerous.

I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic getaway in Balakot
Pros:

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Royal Shangrila in Balakot, Pakistan, and I can confidently say it was one of the best experiences I've ever had! From the moment I arrived, the service was exceptional. The warm welcome from the staff made me feel right at home.

A special shoutout to the manager, Shani, who was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. His attention to detail and willingness to help with any request truly made a difference.

The hotel staff was equally impressive, always ready with a smile and eager to assist. And let’s not forget about the food! The cook prepared delicious, fresh meals that were served in no time. Each dish was a delightful experience, showcasing the local flavors beautifully.

Overall, my stay at Royal Shangrila was unforgettable, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic getaway in Balakot. I can’t wait to return!

It's a beautiful hotel with a great location
Pros:

I have stayed at this place with my family, The rooms were very good with clean beds, bed sheets and furniture. The staff is very cooperative. Most important is availability of electricity during load shedding due to the installed Solar system. The location and building is also very good and maintained.
I would highly recommend everyone to stay here.

Passable
Pros:

It was clean and the manager was friendly

Cons:

The advertising is false
They mentioned a lake which turned out to be a unmaintained pool, they mentioned a 45 square meters room which was probably half that, no TV and no hot water at all
The price was reasonable for what was offered but false advertising takes away the customers trust in this app, it makes me wish I didn’t book the place and just looked for hotels myself
