I had a nice stay at the hotel, with the location being the highlight, just a short walk from Khajjiar Valley and offering stunning views of the Dhauladhar range from my balcony. While the room was clean and well-furnished, the service left something to be desired, especially during meal times. Overall, it was a decent experience, but they could improve on their attention to detail.

The hotel is located about an 8-minute walk from Khajjiar Valley, offering breathtaking views of the Dhauladhar range right from the balcony. While the rooms are spacious and have a nice view, they could use some modernization as the furniture seemed quite old. The food quality was average, especially since there was a mix-up with our order. Overall, it's a decent stay with beautiful scenery but could improve on service and dining experience.

The rooms were spacious with a huge balcony overlooking the beautiful mountains. However, they looked like an old property with crumbling furniture and a CRT TV, which detracted from the experience.

Service was somewhat lacking; there was a notable indifference when we had breakfast in the dining hall, and our order was mistakenly served to another room. I appreciated the effort from the front office manager who was quite helpful, but overall it felt like the staff could have been more attentive.
