Excellent! Everything upto the Oberoi standards. Beautifully crafted and maintained property. Every small detail is well taken care of. Amenities and comfort are just excellent. Rooms are plush and very comfortable. Staff is polite and business-like. Breakfast buffet is well spread and tasty. Must mention the Swimming pool - it is just an amazing set-up. Heated water in winters and a jacuzzi! Kudos to the hotel staff for maintaining it. Hotel is located roughly 2 kms from the Mall. Walk is not easy as you need to navigate narrow roads which caters to busy traffic through out the day. Views from the Rooms (at least the ones facing the parking/road) are nothing great. But you don't really mind it if you are enjoying the hotel facilities inside the premises or exploring the Shimla town outside. Viceregal Lodge is walkable and a must-visit.

A truly wonderful place to stay in Shimla. We had a very large room with a view of the Himalayas, very characterful and comfortable. The hotel had a colonial feel with many interesting rooms to explore. We stayed two nights but would have been happy to stay longer! The food was very good and staff excellent. The hotel was a good base to explore Shimla and we could walk to most places.

Stayed at the Cecil on 11-12 October 2024. An elegant hotel with lovely friendly staff. Best massage I’ve ever had in the Cecil’s spa. Thank you to Nikhil who provided us with delicious cocktails and conversation on both evenings. Loved the lentil crisps!
