Good things - beautiful landscaping, no two ways around it, all the lawns are perfectly manicured, immaculately maintained. Amazing - good rooms: we had the super deluxe rooms in block 2 and they seemed freshly renovated. Clean and well equipped and very spacious with good views - food: decent enough. Not consistent though, lunch was great, dinner not so much.... More

The staff was extremely professional yet very caring and personal. Ideal location that is far from the hustle bustle of Shimla and only 25 km (45 min) from the... More

The Destination seems to be a very well maintained hotel on a pristine location on the Kalka Shimla Highway. However, the place is a fortress with with well manicured lawns and needs to be avoided. It is better to book Himachal Pradesh Tourism Hotels eg The Palace Chail which is a Heritage Structure of the Maharaja and is wonderfully well... More

A very green place with lots of well maintained gardens. The gardens are full with blossoming pots which adds to the beauty of the resort. The rooms were nice and clean, not very luxurious though. Beds were very comfortable. There are no ACs in the rooms, but there is no need also as weather is pleasant. Its a good place... More

I had a wonderful experience in this resort. The gardens here are huge and blooming with colorful flowers. The rooms of the resort are massive easily accommodating more than two people. There is a multi cuisine restaurant but the service is extremely slow. We had to wait long for our food. This is a very big property and ideal for... More
