Holiday Home is a nice hotel, well run by HPTDC. The staff of the Holiday Home had a professional and friendly approach and it offered a nice view of the valley from one room and the Church from another ! Though the hotel is little far from the Mall Road, the tourism lift is few metres away.It is a good place to stay but can be avoided if you r tarevelling with aged parents because of the climb to the Mall Road. The other good thing about the hotel is its restaurant where we savored a very delectable local dish- Sepu Vadi.We as a family relish the local delicacies and the Sepu Vadi still tantalizes our tastebuds!

This is a Himachal Tourism's Hotel and a really good property.

The place like shimla, which is full of hotels, HPTDC is good for the middle class family, who look for comfort at best possible economical rates. This hotel is conveniently situated and gives you all the comforts during your stay. The food is also fine so the room service.

When we visited it was extremely chilled, but the room was very cosy and comfortable. Since we visited on christmas eve and could hear the carols sound comings from the main church which was nearby. The room booked for us had a view of the church from the window. The church was all light-up and looking so beautiful. The atmosphere within the hotel was as lively as outside on Ridge and Malls. They had decorated it so beautifully and the Christmas Theme was all around the hotel.
I still cherish those memories of mine.

I suggested this hotel to many of my friends thereafter and they all thanked me for a right suggestion. I hope u have a good experience too.

We reached on 3rd june ,hotel room is good ,clenliness is well maintained . After hectic sight seeing like kufri and horse riding, all sort of walking on mall road, You feel fresh by mind but body & stomach required care at the end of day. When you reach hotel ,we felt verygood ,hot water all the time available . Food is very good ,room service is also excellent. It was nice experince, like you reach home from 18 hrs working in office and have good food & rest.
