Being at Chapslee is like living history. The sense of presearvation is awesome. I asked for a tour of the house, and the host was gracious enough to grant it. Every piece in that house is an antique. our room (the deluxe suite) had a sketch dated 1899, a photograph signed 1942, a water color in the study signed 1935.... More

After seeing so many places in south India we finally decide to move towards north and Shimla was no doubt a good option. So after a good search all over the net, I finely got a place of my interest to stay. The booking , travel arrangements , sightseeing to kufri etc were made from Shimlaroyals.com .They offer good deals... More

Chapslee was less a hotel and more a home or a piece of history. We enjoyed our stay immensely thanks to the wonderful setting, our gracious host and his attentive staff. The room was very comfortable and the bathroom decent (plenty of hot water, even in an old house like this). The breakfasts and dinners were exquisite and we were... More

Ignore the 'shabby chic' of the rooms, and dive into a bygone era. The welcome we got from all at Chapslee was second to none. The accomocation a trip back into a bygone era, and the food - a dinning experience. We only, sadly, had two nights at Chapslee, but we have so many memories. a unique experience to be... More

A great example of colonial India, with an extraordinary ambience, and a charming host in Reggie Singh. A genuine man, truly proud of his country and it's past, which is very evident in his Chapslee home. Well worth a visit.

Our stay was simply exceptional in every way! Old world charm, service and values are a rare find anywhere in the world. The Chapslee is a step back in history from a decor point of view yet it has all the modern conveniences and comforts. Reggie and his team made us feel so welcome & pampered. Shimla itself is a...

I spent two nights at Chapslee, having researched a number of places in Shimla. I whole-heartedly agree with all of the previous favorable reviews-this is truly a unique and authentic Indian experience in a home that is rare to find in today's world. As a seasoned traveller this will always stand-out as a memorable highlight. Shame on those citing petty... More

Not much has changed here since about 1940 when the present owner's grandfather, the Maharajah of Kapurthala refurbished his summer residence in high colonial style. The antiques beautifully polished and the silver was gleaming. Photos and portraits of generations of Reggie's family are much in evidence and he will happily give you a little tour explaining where everyone fits in.... More

We stayed at the Chapslee and it was the highlight of our tour. It is an establishment par excellence. A Maharaja's Summer Palace, faded perhaps, but its charm and the opportunity to partake of life in a bygone age, are real indeed. We were waited on and treated as guest's of the Maharaja in his own home. A good package... More
