From
United KingdomNice place to stay. Modern and clean. Helpful staff. Check in and requests for your room are managed all through a web app which might not work well for everyone. The staff do help you with it but can slow things down .
The hotel has no outdoor seating area but I believe they are building one. Western breakfast options limited - just fruit and toast. No jams or pastries - hotel is not the lowest price around so would expect a better selection.

IndiaLocated almost at the top of the mountain, the location and view from the common terrace area is amazing. Its only a 10-15 minutes walk from mall road, but the climb could be exhausting for non trekkers. The north indian veg food was amazing. Highly recommended for solo and group travellers.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

- Avg. price/night: £10.05Review score8.8Fabulous · 14 reviewsStayed here for 4 nights. Even extended our stay because we liked Shimla and the BnB so much. The private room was just what we needed and cheaper than a hostel dorm. They served you food if you wanted to your room which was fantastic. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful with anything we came to them about. Couldn't recommend more!Guest review byCasparPeople with friends

- Avg. price/night: £42.64Review score8.6Fabulous · 705 reviewsGrateful for the exceptional hospitality at Hostellers by Aashish. The warmth and homely service provided by Chef Ajay, staff members Abhishek,naresh,Rahul & Vikesh and F&B Manager Rana Ji make us feel not just like guests but cherished members of an extended family. Our stay has been marked by a sense of safety, genuine care, and moments of true happiness. Kudos to the staff for creating a home away from home. 🏨🌟Guest review byKumarYoung couple
- Avg. price/night: £42.64Review score8.6Fabulous · 705 reviewsOne of the best hostels chain. if you are looking to spend some quality time with your loved ones. Aashishh at the front desk is an absolute asset to the company with a great eye for detail. He went out of the way to make sure we had a great stay.Guest review bysinghSolo traveller
- Review score6.8Pleasant · 199 reviewsI liked the location of the hostel type guest house. As it's very near to Mal road, about 10 minutes walking distance, but with very steep slope, not comfortable for Senior People, or with heart and lungs problem. But the rent per bed is very cheap compared to other nearby hotels. One can take tea/coffee free and paid breakfast, lunch, dinner. It's safe to stay here.Guest review byJOYPRAKASHSolo traveller
- Review score7.6Good · 38 reviewsThe dormitory are very simple but for the price it is very good! You will be hosted by such nice people, it is realy a good place for low budget backpackers.Guest review byEliseSolo traveller
