Snow Valley Heights

Perched in Shimla’s cool hills, Snow Valley Heights sits about 4 km from the city center and a short drive from Prospect Hill and Darlaghat. This family-friendly hotel is roughly 14.5 km (9 mi) from Mall Road and is convenient to Shimla airport (about 15.8 km) with Chandigarh (IXC) the preferred major airport.

The hotel keeps things modern and unfussy across 42 air-conditioned rooms with flat-screen TVs, coffee/tea makers, safes and daily housekeeping. Rooms offer tubs or showers, complimentary toiletries, hair dryers and slippers; accessible guests benefit from an elevator and the property even lists a doctor on call.

Plug in with complimentary wireless internet, park free on-site, and let the concierge sort tours or transfers. Kids tear into the playrooms and arcade while you kick back — and you can wake up to crisp Himalayan mornings before heading out to explore.

Practical touches include a 24-hour front desk, laundry and dry-cleaning services, concierge assistance, free self parking and an airport shuttle available on request (surcharge may apply).

The on-site restaurant, The Prospect, serves satisfying meals with local flavors and offers a buffet breakfast daily from 8:00 AM to 10:30 AM for a fee. Taste regional dishes or grab a hearty morning spread before heading out.
