Fabulous hotel. The service here is impeccable. We got an upgrade to a suite room which was large and spacious. It had a small study a living area a bedroom and walk-in closet. The bathroom was huge too. It’s right in mall road so convenient to step out for a walk. The himachali food at the restaurant was delicious. ##### Asim Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Felicity 7 Dec 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Superb Shimla Had a FABULOUS time. Lovely, clean and quiet town. Very safe and friendly. Great experience to go up on the toy train and come back on the car motorail. Clarke's was so good, comfortable and convenient to the Mall. I wish we had had longer and look forward to another stay later. Only government cars can drive on the Mall so safe, quiet and easy to negotiate. The old Gaiety theatre a REAL gem. WONDERFUL that this piece of history still exists and has been restored. So much history in Shimla, well worth a visit and magnificent scenery and sunsets. Thank you Shimla and India. ##### Felicity Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Narain 5 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Enjoyable stay Very accommodating The manager Pooja was quite friendly and help.It was a pleasure with kind staff to push my sister in a wheelchair and walk up with luggage ##### Narain Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Parks Cornwall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cornwall-Holiday-Parks.d6046193-aaHolidayParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotel La Tour Hassan Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rabat-Hotels-Hotel-La-Tour-Hassan-Palace.h178035.Hotel-Information) > > [Sugar Bay Barbados - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hastings-Hotels-Sugar-Bay-Barbados-All-Inclusive.h10023253.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greyhound Inn Taunton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taunton-Hotels-The-Greyhound-Inn-Taunton.h22514791.Hotel-Information) > > [ Alannia Guardamar Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Guardamar-Del-Segura-Hotels-Alannia-Guardamar-Resort.h4860599.Hotel-Information) > > [Half Moon, Sherborne by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sherborne-Hotels-Half-Moon.h33107922.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Lake Como](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Como-Hotels-Hilton-Lake-Como.h17246644.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Utilita Arena Sheffield](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Utilita-Arena-Sheffield-Hotels.0-l6088133-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Ona Palamós](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palamos-Hotels-Ona-Palamos.h18415311.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Guelph](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Guelph-Hotels.d8237.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Tatton Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tatton-Park-Hotels.0-l6157899-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Boutique Hotel Albus Amsterdam Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amsterdam-Hotels-Boutique-Hotel-Albus-Amsterdam-Centre.h889645.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Aylesbury Waterside Theatre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aylesbury-Waterside-Theatre-Hotels.0-l553248621532491670-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [B&B Stockton Heath](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stockton-Heath-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d3000373048-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Generator Hotel Washington DC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Washington-Hotels-Generator-Hotel-Washington-DC.h3801.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Royal Prague](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prague-Hotels-Hotel-Royal-Prague.h17430062.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott, Dubai Investment Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott.h27507087.Hotel-Information) > > [Wildflower Hall, An Oberoi Resort, Shimla](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shimla-Hotels-Wildflower-Hall.h902273.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Tampa (TPA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/tpa/manchester-to-tampa) > > [Flights from Leeds (LBA) to Sommacampagna (VRN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lba/vrn/leeds-to-verona) > > [Flights from London (LCY) to Prague (PRG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lcy/prg/london-to-prague) > > [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Grand Canyon (GCN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/gcn/london-to-grand-canyon) > > [Flights from Dubai (DXB) to Manchester (MAN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/dxb/man/dubai-to-manchester) ### Cars > [Car hire in Cortina d'Ampezzo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Cortina-DAmpezzo.d6582.Car-Hire-Guide) > > [Car hire in El Campello](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-El-Campello.d6034882.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Packages > [Alicante Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alicante.d356.Holidays-City-Breaks) ---
