My friend and I spent 3 nights at Aapo Aap in late April and met with a warm welcome and great support from Shivi Who went out of his way to make us at home,lending us an Indian phone, ensuring we always had what we needed.

3rd - 5th April 2013 - Arrived from Dharamshala to a lovely place to stay. Rooms were clean and of good size with nice, comfy duvets - not just blankets. Hot water worked well and bathrooms were clean. Breakfast was nice but with 3 other couples staying, we would have preferred our own table rather then having to make small... More

We stayed here as a party of three adults in two rooms. Shivi had not had many guests to stay recently and Aapo Aap appeared rather 'shut up' when we arrived.

Very quiet home along a ridge outside of Shimla. You will need transportation into town. Peaceful and restful.

Large sized rooms with adequate furniture and heating facilities, classy bathrooms, big verandahs where you soak in the sunlight during the day and gaze at the stars at night is what this place...

I spent two nights at Aapo Aap homestay and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. Shivi was an excellent host, providing suggestions on places to visit and drawing maps of where I might want to walk. The rooms are really spacious and also have a kitchen and communal area. The view from the terrace is beautiful. My thanks to the cook:... More

We had a great time in Shimla. Shivi did everything to make us feel comfortable. The room and the view were great. We had very good breakfast and vegetarian dinner. Thank you Shivi and carry on like this. André & Carolin

Stayed three nights and loved it. Clean rooms with amazing views . 17 minutes south of Shimla on a quiet hillside. Tasty food, kind and helpful staff, and as bodders wrote "spiritually relaxing, tranquil, and serene.
