Its located in the small town of Fagu, very close to Kufri. Overall the place is nice, reasonably priced and the service is courteous. The rooms are basic, washrooms clean and food was reasonable in taste and price too. Only thing I did not like was the architecture of the place. In the name of renovation, they have made a... More

I love this hotel for the location and good views. We had stayed in this hotel for one night. The room was average (Double Bed Room Regular), bathroom was clean. The food quality was average. The staffs were cooperative. Car parking spaces were available.

This is one place I would recommend all travellers to visit if you are visiting in and around Shimla and want a break from crowdy Shimla in quiter pastures. The hotel is nice and clean with cozy rooms and clean washrooms. Each room is provided with a room heater. Washrooms may be very basic but there is ample provision for... More

Good location, good views, good homely food, slow service at restaurant....sums it up in a quick fashion. Rooms are not extremely luxurious but again are value for money. Forget cards, carry cash.

In this trip, we wished to stay away from Shimla and were split between Naldehra and Fagu. One day before the trip, we decided in favour of Fagu as it seemed to promise better views. Based on the reviews on the net we decided for Apple Blossoms, HPTDC hotel and booked online. For first night, we could get Blossom Suite... More
