Shimla Hotels

Great break from the chaos of daily India. Quite and peaceful. Beautiful grounds and hikes. Meditation destination. Will certainly be back.

Wildflower Hall is a beautiful spa hotel ensconced in the Himalayas near Simla, India. It is a beautiful property constructed almost entirely in Burma teak wood. The quality of service and level of staff attentiveness was exceptional. The hotel, I gather, only recently opened itself to kids. However, it doesn't really cater to families with kids. It's much better suited for couples. The spa facilities are very nice. Ultimately, if you love beautiful mountain view and relaxation away from civilisation, this is your place.

We arrived at 10 pm and left and 10 am. All we wanted was a safe and relatively clean place with a restaurant. Nothing fancy. And we got it.

We had a very nice stay here, relaxing. Staff were ok, rooms good. Food ok. They do need to sort out the wifi, and maybe give more detail on what to use and how to use things in the room. But I would stay here again. Well placed for the Mall and Monkey temple.

Not a great deal to do after the boat rides on the Ganges, theres a rooftop resteraunt on top (all veggie) and a beers approx £2 a tin 😳 but the view of the Ganges is tops 😆 but 2 nights was enough

It's very well located at the Mall Rd., spotlessly clean and well maintained, and has good North Indian food, and a courteous and very friendly staff:) The hotel is 6-sroreyed, with the base Reception-Restaurant about 2 storeys above the Core Mall Road. On the day we reached we got a temporary upgraded suite on the top (6th floor), i.e. a total 8 storey climb (no lift) - which was a big bother for me and my wife who are Sr Citizens, but may be less so for younger and physically fitter folks. Only a few rooms have a Valley view - for folks who are out the whole day and evening this may not matter much. Another thing is that all rooms do not have a standard layout or size - some are pretty small, while few are normal size that's common in hotels of this class. Overall it was a good offer...

Our stay at this property was good except for the geyser hot water functioning very slowly. A place like shimla with low temperatures this is very much required. Room service and reception were informed of this during our stay. Geyser was able to fill in just one bucket of hot water by keeping it on overnite.

with the understanding that we might not have stayed during high season we felt firstly the following: Having not been to Shilma or surrounding area previously it is difficult to appreciate the position of the hotel with respect to the landmarks and main Mall area. Its quite a tough uphill slog to get to the Mall in the first instance without taking into account the up and downhill waliking you will do when in Shimla. The map provided by the hotel was not very representative wrt distances nor location of steps. taxis generally from the station were reasonable and a good step might be for the hotel to offer customers a free shuttle for example upto the Mall. We are not all hymalayan hikers. The other point is that the cost of cars should really be aligned to local costs. From a local cab firm our trip from Shilma to catch the Delhi train at Kalka was only 2250 rupees. I would shudder to think what the hotel might hsve charged. Hotel staff were courteous. Food was plentiful and good quality, although we didnt eat that much whilst we were there. It seemed that sometimes the staff outnumbered the guests and in an effort to be helpful and friendly you sometimes felt as though you were intruding or being watched. No bar area apart from an outside terrace. Room was good. Nice views over the valley and all the amenities you would expect. Overall an enjoyable stay. We leave Shimla tired from the walking but with fond memories. Thank you.

we had a lovely time....food was good.....staff was friendly...would love to go back again
