“What stood out to me about this property was its practical approach to hospitality, notably the convenient stilt parking in a busy area and consistently attentive staff; the inclusion of balconies and American cuisine also broadens its appeal. It's a family-friendly option that doesn't skimp on comfort, offering spacious rooms and modern amenities. I think it makes a sensible base for exploring Shimla.”
