This place is definitely a cut above most other properties in Shimla. The rooms are well appointed and quite stylish. Good bathroom with ample hot water and good water pressure. The room was quiet, away from the street noise. Big flat screen smart TV. Very comfortable. The host Suren is a real gentleman, very attentive and speaks very good English. I have travelled in India extensively and this is one of the best little hotels I have found. I highly recommend it.

    It's a cute cozy place away from the hustle bustle, but at the same time also just 10 mins walk away from mall road. Ayush and Anjali are great hosts, making the stay so much comfortable. Vibe of hostel is also great, most people keep hanging out in common area.

    My stay at Seclude Taraview felt incredibly special. I felt like I really was in a secluded world tucked away from the hustle and bustle. The garden area was lovely and full of flowers, and the house has a beautiful antique style. The staff are amazing and took such good care of me from the moment I arrived. Deepak especially was a great host. The homestyle meals were delicious and such a spread! Everything about the experience felt like five star treatment. I wish I had stayed longer, and I would definitely return again!

    Great location in peaceful part of town 15 minute walk on an quiet road to the bustling part of Mall road. Super room with the most comfortable bed with crisp bed linen, great spotless modern bathroom with fantastic shower and wonderful toiletries. Great garden area for relaxing, reading a book and having breakfast. Excellent helpful staff with a special mention to Ravi for assisting with a few things. Good communication with the owner who helped organise a taxi.

    Stayed here for 4 nights. Even extended our stay because we liked Shimla and the BnB so much. The private room was just what we needed and cheaper than a hostel dorm. They served you food if you wanted to your room which was fantastic. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful with anything we came to them about. Couldn't recommend more!

    Really good hostel and it's the cheapest one. Well maintained and clean. Good place to meet new people and I got friends though. You get curtains in the dorm and lockers for free.

    Serene, quiet and gorgeous surroundings for anyone looking for a peaceful stay in the verdant hills of Shimla. Beautifully managed by gracious hosts. The food was absolutely sublime and the welcome kahwa was just chef’s kiss. Don’t forget to have your lunch/ breakfast in the sumptuous garden while enjoying the sunshine. Away from the bustle yet near enough from the Mall Road, it was a perfect getaway for our family.

    I liked the location of the hostel type guest house. As it's very near to Mal road, about 10 minutes walking distance, but with very steep slope, not comfortable for Senior People, or with heart and lungs problem. But the rent per bed is very cheap compared to other nearby hotels. One can take tea/coffee free and paid breakfast, lunch, dinner. It's safe to stay here.

We have got a super clean room with an amazing view it was very quiet and peacful at night Service was amazing, all requirements delivered promptly. Keep in mind in Shimla you have steep hills, walking up the hill can be challenging for elderly people short walk up hill to the Kali Hindu Temple
