From the moment we arrived at the Oberoi Cecil in Shimla we were greeted with kind, knowledgeable and helpful staff: from the ***ager to the concierge, room cleaning staff, restaurant chefs and servers as well as the therapists at the spa, all staff went out of their way to provide extraordinarily levels of service. This a place with a guiding ethos: “What can we do to make your stay with us better?" To highlight specific individuals is difficult as all were exceptional. Special thanks to Chef Raj Kappur Bhattia and his team, Tenzin (at the spa) and Chirag, our room attendant who kept our suite as beautiful and tidy as when we first arrived. As well as its people, the hotel has fantastic facilities: a great restaurant with a wide selection of Indian, Asian and European dishes; the gym is well-equipped and the pool is heated (29C/84F). A definite 5 star review.

The best hotel I have been to. The staff are excellent, food delicious and the hotel facilities very good. For information for the independent traveller, there is a small airport in Shimla and Tibet is doable from here. Shimla is stunning, lots of wild Monkeys, history- including House of the former Viceroys of India and walking in foothills of Himalayas

We made an impromptu trip to Shimla to celerate my kid’s 2nd birthday as a family. The stunning location of Oberoi Cecil coupled with colonial charm and lavish valley views from the rooms’ balcony brings you to an escape away from your usual happenings in the most amazing way. Everything aside, the best part of the hotel is the brilliant hospitality of the entire team right from the door guards, the bellboys, the front desk team, the housekeeping staff, restaurant team and others. It would be unwise of me to mention names because every single person we encountered over there was brilliant and serve as epitome of world class service. Very nice place for a family get away. 11/10. Will be back again soon :)

We are deeply gratified and astounded by the exceptional standard of service and proactive approach exhibited by the staff. The level of service provided by Oberoi has truly established a remarkable precedent in the realm of hospitality. Our profound appreciation extends particularly to Raghav, Raj, Amber, Chirag, and Nikhil, who went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was nothing short of magnificent, demonstrating their utmost dedication in attending to our needs.
