The hotel is conveniently located near the tourism lift, making it a great spot for visitors looking to explore Shimla. The rooms are a bit outdated but come with useful facilities like a geaser for hot water. While the price may seem a bit high for what you get, the foreign visa processing service adds value to the experience.
