Found high in the Himalayas at Chaura Maidan, the Oberoi Cecil, Shimla provides sweeping views of the snowcapped mountains and valley below. Once the residence of the Viceroy of India, this Grand Heritage hotel was restored to its former glory that offers you modern conveniences while retaining its colonial charm. Located near the Viceroy Lodge at the more secluded end of Mall Road, the lobby welcomes you with marble fireplaces, a comfortable lounge, and a naturally lit atrium.

Each room reflects its original grandeur with wood décor, period furniture, stately chandeliers, and en suite bathrooms with amenities to pamper yourself. There is also a heated pool, billiards room, and a full-service spa on-site to help you unwind in addition to the children’s activity center for those traveling with their family. The location of the Oberoi Cecil serves as the perfect base to explore the spectacular scenery, forests, and ancient monasteries.

There are three dining options that offer pan-Indian and international specialties for all palates. Whether you are seeking a relaxing and luxurious getaway, or a launching point to explore the surrounding area, here is truly something for everyone.
