The location and views were amazing exposing the Shimla city in the mountains. The sunrise and sunset was heavenly. The design of the property was very modern and amenities were nice. Very clean and spacious as well had the suite. The staff were very kind, courteous and friendly and at your service. The food was cooked on site by this amazing chef and he took his time to make your food of your choice. There was never a no to anything! Wish we had stayed longer.

    True meaning of "homestay ". Mr. Akash is a such a lovely host. He arranged everything we asked for. Actually we planned short trip for our anniversary and he knew it and he gave us surprise by arranging cake. Big room , neat and cleaned. Everything was sparkling cleaned. Home made veg food is cheery on the cake during this pandemic. Next time we will come with our entire family for longer stay.
