Location is quite near Shimla and Chail, but far away from the maddening crowd. The views from the room were fantastic. They have two lovely balconies where guests can relax.

The location is absolutely serene. It's secluded from the main road by about 5km which is why there is a natural calmness, something the people from cities longed for. The place is very well decorated with paintings on walls of the rooms, restaurant and cottages. Blooming flowers can be seen everywhere outside. The host, Mr Praveen, is a fine gentleman. He is always available, provides worthy suggestions if you want to roam around and did gladly accept our early check in. The staff looked very happy working under him. The staff - 1) Cook Mr Arun - is a humble human being and always at service. Be it a request for a cup of tea at 5:30 am or dinner request late at night, he served everything with a smile and within the promised time limit. In addition, the food presentation has been top class. 2) helper Rohan - a young chap from Narkanda who is working here for additional support to his family. Is always smiling and at service. Above all, he holds diploma in electrical and is preparing to appear for the electricity board exam. Great attitude! The room and bathroom - spic and span. All facilities available. Spacious and well maintained. Overall experience has been excellent. We stayed there for 2 Nights but the time passed like a whisker. Can't have enough of such place. Wish to visit again!

    "I loved staying in this charming treehouse! It felt like a cozy nest surrounded by nature. The design was beautiful, with comfy furnishings and stunning views. The hosts were warm and welcoming, and I felt peaceful and tranquil. It was the perfect escape from daily life. I highly recommend this treehouse - it's a true gem!"

    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.

    We enjoyed the stay at the hotel so much! Short walk from city center in quiet location, clean rooms and most importantly - absolutely phenomenal customer service. The kind gentlemen at the reception will do everything to make sure your stay at the hotel is great!

    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!

    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.

    Amazing stay at prairie Lodge cottage Guesthouse. Our host Raschisch .. gave us an amazing service.. Beautiful view to the Himalayan Mountains check in was fast and easy. 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
