Hotel is clean and same as what it has been shown in the pictures. From the rooms you have a good valley view. Food at restuarant is good. They have a buffet breakfast. Only issue I found is the distance from the Mall Road. Everytime the taxi charge 500 rupees for one way to Mall Road. Hotel should provide free shuttle at least 3 to 4 times in a day for their guests. rest everything is okay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The views from the property are incredible. The breakfast is great. The other meals are great. Service is great too. Only two things I did not like: ONE: There was a very low wifi signal in the room and I would not recommend the hotel to anyone who needs to work and as cell phone signals at the property are low too. TWO: The bathroom exhaust did not fundtion. So the smell remained in the bathroom for a LONG time.
