Nice Location, no facilities

Only USP - its beautiful location. View from hotel rooms is just beautiful. The room is extremly average, no renovation since 80's. (Hot water only in morning from 7 to 11). if u return to hotel and freshen-up- wait for next morning. :) The cleanliness of bedsheets/ upholstery, bathroom is a concern - old fittings. Restaurent is very average, taste is nice, but class/hygiene in lacking. If u do not want a class hotel; but prefer a small, very basic hotel with excellent view, u can opt for this one.

Great location

1. We are highly impressed by the location of hotel as we can have excellent view of Himalayan ranges. 2. Room heater provided on chargeable basis became out of order at dead night and when we tried to contact hotel staff on intercom, they conveniently switched off intercom perhaps for their undisturbed sleep. Finally we had to approach physically and wake them up. 3. But for this, service from hotel staff was excellent.

My comments on Shining Star Resort

The room quality, bed, cleanliness, Cable TV, balcony, nature view outside balcony, waiter service were superb, but I was little disappointed by the quality of food offered to me having such high price. Shining Star Resort should first reduce its food price and also improve the quality of food to customers and also include some south Indian varieties like Dosas, steam idlis, etc. and some Gujarati varieties like Dhoklas, Khandvi, etc., which will make the customers more happy.
